When it comes to badass and stylish vintage SUVs, you won’t find much better than an old school Land Rover Defender that’s been restored with modern functionality in mind. There are a handful of companies that are up to the task if you’re in the market for one of these exclusive rides, and Arkonik is one that never disappoints. The Arkonik Land Rover Defender 110 Columbus—named for the intrepid explorer—has been completely restored from the ground up to be a luxury off-roader capable of anything you want to drive it over. Kahn alloy wheels. Off-road package with 2″ lift-kit. Side steps. LED work lamps. Raptor-coated paint job. Front Runner roof rack with ladder and kayak mounts. If you thought the outside was beautiful and capable, the interior will blow you away with the Vintage Thatch leather trim, premium seats, aluminum knobs and Alpine sound system. The Columbus D110 has everything you want in an old school SUV.
