Here's your chance to own a hand-crafted vehicle that you'll rarely see here in the USA. We're very pleased to present this exemplary 2021 Signature Autosport OC110 Soft Hood (soft-top convertible) – a thoroughly modern interpretation of the classic 1993 Land Rover Defender 110.

 

Starting with a black powder-coated chassis, the build was completed by our Team at world-renowned Defender experts, Osprey Custom Cars, in Castle Hayne, NC. Motivation is courtesy of a high-revving, deep breathing 5.3L LC9 V8 mated to a smooth-shifting 6L80E 6-speed automatic transmission controlled by a slick push-button gear selector with LED display. The heavy-duty LT230 transfer case distributes constant power to all four wheels, ensuring every last bit of the 325+ horsepower and 350+ pound-feet of torque make it to the ground.

​

The upgraded, heavy-duty TDCI front and rear axles are located by slightly-taller-than-stock Terrafirma® sport springs, along with heavy-duty Terrafirma® shocks, cranked radius arms, track rod, drag link, and steering damper on the front, all protected by a front heavy-duty aluminum skidplate. It rides on body-colored TRUE Wolf-spec "steelie" wheels, wrapped with 285/75R16 Cooper® Discoverer AT3® XLT all-terrain tires. The heavy-duty bumper, complete with jacking points brings up the rear. To ensure stopping is safe, quick, and effective, the vehicle is equipped with upgraded 4-wheel power disc brakes.

​

The body panels were coated in quintessential Land Rover Arles Blue complimented by the luxurious black soft hood (soft top) and then carefully reassembled on the chassis. The black powder-coated exo-skeletal roll cage provides protection for your precious cargo – human or otherwise – and the black powder-coated 5-bar (chequer plate) wing top and sill protectors will help guard the metal. Heavy-duty rubber factory floor mats protect the fully Raptor®-lined interior.

​

Color-matched light surrounds flank the easily recognizable Land Rover grille, protected by a heavy-duty front bumper with lamp guards and integrated LED running lamps. The front, side, rear, and interior LED light upgrades provide superior illumination for wherever your travels may take you. Entry and exit are aided by the Fire & Ice® style tubular side steps with brushed silver accents.

 

The paradigmatic interior has been upgraded with air conditioning, AutoMeter gauges, ultra-durable Exmoor denim twill vinyl front seats, and 6 side-facing rear seats with matching upholstery. YES – this is a full 8-

passenger vehicle! The lockable center console with a leather-wrapped armrest atop the cubby storage area provides ample storage for your devices – and can even swallow a laptop! Got more stuff to stow?!? No worries – 2 lockable side-access storage boxes are readily at your service.

​

Infotainment is provided by a Mud Pod® mounted double-DIN Alpine® touch-screen head unit with navigation, Bluetooth®, DVD playback, Apple Car Play®, Android Auto®, and a backup camera coupled to 4 crisp-sounding Rockford Fosgate® speakers. There are 2 convenient USB charging points up front, too.
