Chelsea Truck Company, a London based part of Kahn Landmark, is no stranger to the capabilities and style of the Land Rover Defender. Paying careful attention to its timeless design, Chelsea Truck reimagines and reinvents the Defender into something worthy of its pedigree. Take this 2011 90 Hard Top for example. The Defender’s signature aggressive stance is obvious even with the custom wheel arches, front bumper, and hood vents. Quilted and perforated leather racing seats are the highlight of the otherwise sparsely appointed interior—it doesn’t even come with speakers. Under the hood is a 2.2 turbo diesel putting out 122 hp through a 6 speed manual to 1983 Defender wheels, which are perfectly matched to the Keswick green finish.
