Custom Defenders
Custom Defenders North East are the sister company of Range Rover Restoration, born from a sheer demand for high quality, bespoke, custom built Defender's and Defender upgrades. Our passion is for all things Land Rover; from full restorations to upgrade packages, Custom Defenders deliver stunning workmanship at competitive prices with excellent customer service and aftercare.
Full Restorations
When a Defender comes to us for a restoration, a thorough checklist identifies which parts can be repaired or need to be replaced. We strongly believe in rebuilding on a new galvanised chassis as the basis for each build, to give all restorations longevity, structural integrity and peace of mind for our valued customers.
Custom Defenders offer an extensive range of suspension and running gear upgrades, alongside engine rebuilds, fresh paint work, bespoke detailing and custom interiors to complete each restoration to a stunning, as new standard.
Bespoke Builds
We pride ourselves on being a friendly and approachable team, coupled with our passion and many years of expertise in both owning and working with Land Rover Defenders. This means that the design process of each bespoke build is a very natural and collaborative process, where regular updates and shared enthusiasm flow effortlessly.
The result of this exceptional working relationship, delivers bespoke builds that exceed our customers expectations, time and time again.
Engine Upgrades
When we say we are Custom Defenders, we mean it. Confidently backed by the technical expertise of our team, we are committed to bringing our customers power upgrade dreams to reality. This includes serious upgrades such as engine swaps to the LS3 Corvette engine, usually found in super cars. With an engine with this much power, naturally an up-rated drive-line is required with custom made items. All of this can be completed here at Custom Defenders.
