You Don’t Do Normal. And Neither Do We.

Your discerning taste drives you towards the exclusive — a vehicle not only rare and bespoke but also thrilling to drive and a true reflection of your individuality. You possess the means to acquire any vehicle, yet you seek something crafted exclusively for you. This desire places The Defenders at the pinnacle of luxury as the foremost custom builder of Classic Land Rover Defenders in Ireland.

we don’t do normal

Buying Defenders to modify into a daily driver started as a hobby until more and more I was stopped by people admiring the work and asking where can they buy one. My passion for Defenders started as a teenager driving Landy’s with my dad and seeing these cool vehicles on TV exploring the remotest parts of the earth. It’s a true adventure vehicle and to this day I have always considered myself to be an adventurous soul that chooses to never fit in with the norm. This is where we get our Philosophy - We Don't Do Normal.

Thanks, Michelle.
