After 68 years, he had earned it honest, Land Rover sent the Defender with three special models in retirement. The off-road veteran was finally as Autobiography Edition (limited to 180 units), as Heritage Edition (2653 pc) and the Adventure Edition (2277 pc) should be the crowning glory. But we think that "Grand finale" always make the vehicles out of the house Kahn design. The best example is this Defender 2.2 TDCI XS 90 Station Wagon "The End Edition" in bright lava orange. A vehicle from the subsidiary Chelsea Truck Company was built and presented to the public a few days ago.
The team around the owner Afzal Kahn also built on this vehicle, the well-known fender flares all around with exposed glands and the striking X-Lander grille. In addition there was a new front bumper including LED lights and this also brings a massive underrun protection. And the hood was changed because this got air vents for better cooling of the engine and at the rear, there was a new spare wheel cover for the Britten including Chelsea lettering.
In addition to four large mud flaps, the widened wheel arches now also carry an 9 x 20 inch Mondial wheel set in Volcanic Black and a PinStripe in body color, and the wheelset is fitted with tires in 275x55x20 format. If you look closely you can see that the calipers have been painted and a sports exhaust system has been there. Here, the tuner built a double crosshair exhaust system made of stainless steel. And of course there were a lot of changes in the interior as well, which can only be guessed at by the tinted windows.
Behind the glazing there are GTB folding seats with the finest quilted and perforated leather and also new grab handles, revised door panels, noble instrument housings and changes to the headliner as well as the sun visors and even the rear door paneling. Interior details also include the new Churchill watch, black speedometer and tachometer, door sills, new leather steering wheel, vented aluminum foot pedals and new six-speed gear selector.
Everything is rounded off with plenty Chelsea Truck Company Brandings that once again point out the uniqueness of this vehicle. If we get more details about the changes to the "Landi", there will of course, as always, be an update for this report.
