ENGINEERING, COMFORT & CAPABILITY ENHANCED.

This Defender 110 arrived with a clear objective: preserve its iconic character while significantly improving drivability, comfort, and reliability. Our team carried out a series of mechanical upgrades, functional improvements, off-road enhancements, and interior refinements using high-quality components. Each part and accessory was curated and carefully chosen by our parts department to deliver purposeful performance gains for both on-road and off-road use.

Below is a breakdown of the work completed and why each upgrade matters.

MECHANICAL UPGRADES: STRONGER STEERING, BETTER CONTROL.

A refreshed power-steering system is essential on any ageing Defender. Replacing the steering box and reinforcing the associated components delivers:

• Sharper steering response.
• Reduced play and vagueness at the wheel.
• Improved durability on rough terrain.
• Greater confidence at higher speeds or when towing.

For vehicles used both on- and off-road, this upgrade dramatically enhances day-to-day drivability while extending the life of the steering system.

FUNCTIONAL ENHANCEMENTS: EVERYDAY PRACTICALITY ELEVATED.

We added a heated windscreen with integrated wiring with the clear goal of sprinkling modern convenience, while maintaining that classic Defender look. A heated screen improves safety and usability by:

• Rapidly clearing frost, fog and condensation.
• Enhancing visibility in challenging conditions.
• Reducing reliance on interior blowers (especially valuable on TD5/TDI models).

We integrated new wiring to ensure clean, reliable operation without compromising the Defender’s electrical integrity.

OPTIMILL REVERSE CAMERA/ PLATE UNIT.

OPTIMILL components are engineered to an exceptional standard, and this integrated camera unit provides:

• Enhanced reversing visibility.
• Safer manoeuvring on worksites or tight rural lanes.
• A factory-quality installation without disrupting body lines.

NEW DOOR HINGES , BONNET HINGES & PAINTED RIVETS.

Small details make a big difference. Upgrading hinges improves:

• Door alignment
• Long-term corrosion resistance
• Overall structural feel

Painting and refinishing rivets ties the visual package together, maintaining a clean, uniform appearance across the vehicle.

OFF-ROAD READINESS.

CAPABILITY WHERE IT TRULY COUNTS.

BF GOODRICH TYRES (BFG KO2 285/75/16 TYRES (SET OF 4))

A benchmark all-terrain tyre. These KO2s deliver:

• Excellent grip in mud, snow, gravel and wet conditions
• Strong sidewall protection against punctures
• Improved ride height and ground clearance
• A tougher, more purposeful stance

Ideal for mixed use, road, work, and off-road expeditions.

CRANKED TRAILING ARMS & LOCKABLE ANTI-ROLL BAR KIT.

This combination significantly improves suspension articulation and stability:

Cranked trailing arms optimise geometry on lifted or modified Defenders.

A lockable anti-roll bar gives flexibility:

Locked = improved road handling

Unlocked = maximum axle travel for off-road terrain

It’s the best of both worlds for drivers who need both stability and capability.

SUSPENSION OVERHAUL: FOX & OLD MAN EMU COMBINED SYSTEM.

Combining Fox and OME components creates a suspension system that balances:

• High-speed damping control (Fox).
• Load-carrying capability and durability (Old Man Emu).
• Improved comfort on uneven surfaces.
• Long-term reliability for work or expedition use.

It’s a tailored hybrid setup designed to suit the owner’s exact usage requirements.
