From the team of Heritage Customs and their designers Niels van Roij there are currently a few teaser pictures for a new Land Rover Defender Convertible as a project Valiant Convertible. The basis for this is the current L663 model. The unofficial successor from Soft top Defender from bygone days arises at the tuner Heritage Customs at the customer's request at a price of 90.000 euros plus vehicle and is for the time being a unique piece. Overall, however, should be next year five conversions in three different color combinations. Currently, however, only virtual images can be seen. But apparently the conversion is already in full swing in consultation with the future owner of the open Landy. A Defender 90 of the current generation and in addition to the conversion to a fresh-air off-roader are also typical Heritage Customs materials like Aluminium, Manager, Denim, teak wood or Copper partly to be seen on the virtual pictures.
Maybe based on the Defender 110?
However, the completion should take a little longer. After all, there is one Body conversion extremely complex. The rear area facilitated one around the factory-made metal roof and spans it with one Canvas roof. In addition, it should be above the front seats removable roof elements give. It is currently still unclear motorization the droptop version. From the four-cylinder diesel with 200 hp to the 5,0-liter V8 from the top model P525 AWD with 525 hp, everything is conceivable for the Land Rover Defender Cabrio. And there apparently no changes to the technology (Motor, drive, gearbox etc..) have to be made, any motorization should be possible. Whether the larger Defender 110 will later be converted into a convertible is up to now not known.
