Actually, the new L663 Land Rover Defender is still being hacked around extensively in the usual Internet forums on the net. At the same time, Land Rover reports that the waiting list for the off-roader is incredibly long. Maybe the new one isn't that bad after all? We were convinced of the new edition right from the start and still are. We are even convinced that in 10 to 20 years the modern Defender will be just as iconic as its classic predecessor. We particularly like the 90s, i.e. the three-door version with a short wheelbase. And it is also a good deal ahead of the 110 (normal five-door SUV) and the 130 (long wheelbase variant) in the tuning scene. For the smallest of the bunch, there are currently the most tuning parts from suppliers around the world!
Defender (L663) wide body
The best example of this is this specimen, which according to the tuner Road Show International has a large amount of potential for customization. If the (lavish) OEM equipment is not enough to stand out in the mass of off-roaders, then going to the tuner is probably inevitable. Road Show International from Atlanta (Georgia) has created a treat with the vehicle that could make even the grumpy L663 opponents reconsider.
And this Defender is even the top model of the Defender 90 series, the P525 with V8 in the front. It shows itself with a classic mixture of matt Carpathian gray and glossy black parts all around and stands up to the mighty off-road wheels. But we come to the changes to the body. The road show team installed a reserved one all around wide body dress, which looks like it came straight from the Land Rover factory. The attachments form a stylish transition to the body and, in our opinion, match the look of the Defender perfectly.
no changes in the cabin
The interior is lined with Nero suede and, as far as we can tell, has not undergone any changes. That's apparently what the shiny black one is for wheelset new. The look reminds us of them Mondial retro rims off the shelf of Kahn design, the design is identical down to the massive spokes. The wheel set is also equipped with BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A off-road tires and it fills the widened wheel arches perfectly.
