Land Rover Classic Defender V8 now offers more style choices

Land Rover Classic, the official home of Classic Defender restoration and customisation, has announced that it is now able to create a Classic Defender V8 to match any colour and trim combination of the latest Defender Octa.

Available in 90/110 Station Wagon or 90 Soft Top body styles, it adds five new exterior colours for Classic Defender V8 customisation: Octa‑exclusive Petra Copper, Faroe Green, and Sargasso Blue, plus Narvik Black from the tough luxury 4x4 rock star Octa Black and Patagonia White. Borasco Grey, Carpathian Grey, and Charente Grey are already offered on the Classic Defender V8.

Each Classic Defender V8 spends around 300 hours in the paint shop, from meticulous preparation to colour matching and final polish

All colours are available in a gloss finish, or a specially developed satin finish to match the sheen of Defender Octa's optional Matte Protective Film.

Also, for the first time on Classic Defender, new interior choices matching the Defender Octa include lightweight Ultrafabrics PU in Khaki Green, Light Cloud, and Lunar, alongside Burnt Sienna semi‑aniline leather. To match Defender Octa Black, Ebony leather is available too. Clients can choose hand‑trimmed heated Recaro sports seats and work with Land Rover Classic's design team to faithfully replicate the colour placement on the steering wheel, transmission levers, dashboard, headlining, and door trims.

Additional options developed exclusively for the Classic Defender V8 include a gloss black radiator grille mimicking Defender Octa's, which maximises the open area for optimum cooling, and Chopped Carbon Fibre bonnet script.
