Land Rover Defender V8 Soft Top Customization: 49 Stunning Paint Options and Luxurious Interior Upgrades
Land Rover enthusiasts are in for a treat! The iconic Land Rover Defender 90 has been reimagined in the form of the Defender V8 Soft Top, combining vintage charm with modern engineering. This factory restomod is set to captivate off-roading enthusiasts, offering a unique blend of style, power, and customization options.
A Nod to the Past, Reinvented for the Present
The Defender V8 Soft Top is based on the classic Defender 90 model, originally produced between 2012 and 2016. The highlight of this revamp is the transformation of the rugged off-roader into an open-top two-seat pick-up. The removable fabric roof comes in two variants: the minimalist “Bikini Hood” covering only the front seats, and a more comprehensive top with adjustable side and rear panels. This addition provides an exhilarating open-air driving experience, reminiscent of classic motoring.

Power-Packed Performance
Under the hood, this modern masterpiece is powered by a 5.0-litre V8 engine, producing an impressive 400 bhp and 515 Nm of torque. Paired with an 8-speed automatic gearbox, the vehicle promises seamless power delivery. Mechanical upgrades, including revamped suspension with new coil springs, Bilstein dampers, and Eibach anti-roll bars, ensure enhanced stability. Upgraded brakes with four-piston Alcon callipers and large diameter discs deliver superior stopping power, making it a beast both on and off the road.
