BEST OF BRITISH: When two brothers decided to breathe new life into a scruffy ex-RAF 90, they were determined to make the most of some of the finest suppliers the UK has to offer.

This article from Land Rover Monthly features the story of two brothers who transformed a Land Rover Defender 90 into their vision of the perfect vehicle. The Defender, originally an ex-RAF runway vehicle, was in excellent condition when they purchased it. Over the course of eight months, the brothers worked on the vehicle in their spare time, using local suppliers and small companies to source materials and parts. The interior was completely revamped with Terracotta leather seats, a tweed headliner, and other luxurious touches. The exterior received a new paint job in Porsche Oak Green, and various upgrades were made to the fixtures and fittings. The result is a unique and stunning Defender that the brothers keep for special occasions. [Extracted from the article]
