  • Kahn Mixes the Defender with Chelsea Wide Track

    Kahn Land Rover Defender CWT Front and Side ViewChelsea Wide Track is a name which we usually see standing behind A. Kahn Design’s creations. This time, under the expertise of the tuner we see the favorite to many Land Rover Defender TDCI 90. The specialists have changed not only its face, giving it more muscular stance, but also added some exclusivity inside.

    At first, let’s take a look at the new design of the Defender. The team at Kahn replaced the original front bumper with new one that includes integrated lights, sump guard, mesh and X-Lander front grille. Then they have added Satin Black extended front and rear wheel arches which also have integrated vents and exposed bolts.

    The hood is also covered by the mesh, as are the fender and side vents. At the back we see the spare wheel cover delivered by the Chelsea Truck Company. There is actually something more prominent that catches our attention and it is the stainless steel cross-hair exhaust system.

    When we take a look at the sides of the car we see new alloys. Namely, they are 1983 RS Defend in satin black finish. Behind all four wheels we spot rubber flaps and liquid red-painted brake calipers.

    Proceeding further, the boring interior of the Defender has been made very sunny and inviting. The front and rear sports GTB seats come in the exuberating orange color of the quilted and perforated leather contrasted by black accents and stitching. What we also see inside are the one-off black Churchill time clock, billet machined leather steering wheel and aluminium ventilated foot pedals.

    The centre dashboard surround is now in Piano Black, while the centre glove box was wrapped in quilted and perforated leather and the roof headlining in Alcantara. Unfortunately, only those inside will enjoy this lavishness of material, because everything is hidden behind a dark-tinted privacy glass.

  • Kahn Land Rover Defender 2.2 TDCI XS 110 Chelsea Wide Track Edition

    Kahn-Land-Rover-Defender-Chelsea-Wide-Track-THUMBThis Land RoverDefender has been treated so well that in its current state it looks amazing. The seven-passenger Fungus Green vehicle has been adorned abundantly with a lot of rugged and luxurious amenities that set it apart from the average Defender. First, Chelsea Truck Company has transformed it into a 2.2 TDCI XS 110 Wide Track Edition we haven’t seen before. The team had to rework substantial aspects of the exterior and interior of the SUV in order to make it stand out.

    They have begun with the exterior, which is now even more rugged and exclusive than before. Precisely, the front fascia has been entirely changed and now includes a new X-Lander front grille in Fungus Green and Old England White.

    They have added also a new bumper with integrated lighting, cross-hair military headlights, bumper sump guard mesh hood vents to help cool the engine. Just like at the front, the rear also got wide wing arches. The roof contrasts to the overall design theme in Old England White.

    Next, the tuners have equipped it with a set of commanding 1948 Defend wheels in satin black, which come in the size of 8.0 x 16″ and are fitted with 265x75x16 tyres. Behind the wheels we can see the liquid red painted brake callipers.  The exterior look is rounded out by the twin crosshair exhaust system, 2″ suspension lift, up rated gas shocks/steering damper, welcome ambient illumination package and hard- wearing mud flaps.

    While the dark-tinted privacy glass leaves the onlookers guessing what is on the inside, the occupants enjoy a luxury atmosphere. This is where the might of A. Kahn Design can be seen in its full glory. To be more precise, the front and rear seats have been replaced with GTB sport units with quilted and perforated tan nappa leather.

    In addition, the centre glove box, passenger dashboard, grab handles, door panel inserts, instrument binnacle, rear door panel, roof headlining and sun visors are also upholstered. The interior also benefits from a Churchill time clock and speedo/rev counter facia in red, alpine satellite navigation system, door entry sill plates, rear cabin access LED lights, reverse camera, Kahn billet steering wheel and vented machined aluminium foot pedals.

    What is more, the rear floor space has been substituted with classic teak decking, including a transparent pod for the Alpine stereo amplifier. At last, Kahn branding rounds-out the package.
