Overfinch has made a name for itself with its ultra-luxurious reworked Land Rovers, and its latest is this soft-top Defender 110.
Starting with a 1992 US model, the British company has refinished it from top to bottom and it has Easter Eggs everywhere.
Plus, it’s been fitted with a massive V8 engine to top it off.

Outside, Overfinch has painted the Defender in the company’s own unique satin Obsidian Black paint.
There’s an external roll cage painted a glossy Santorini Black to set it off as well, and to provide protection as this Defender is a convertible.

Its black 18-inch Apollo alloy wheels come clad in a set of BFGoodrich all-terrain tires as well, making it ideal for hitting the beach.
Its tough front bumper also features a 4500kg (10,000lb) winch for pulling yourself or other stuck vehicles out of tricky sitations.
And for a real touch of luxury, the Defender’s rear tray has been fitted with teak decking like a yacht.
There’s also a hidden drawer in there that holds champagne bottles and a cigar humidor.
Interior
Inside, Overfinch has updated the interior with quilted leather, heated Recaro seats, and a 7.0-inch Alpine touchscreen with Apple CarPlay.
Plus, with a 465hp 6.2-liter V8 engine from a Chevrolet Camaro SS under the hood, backed by an eight-speed auto, it should be much faster than your average classic Defender.
Overfinch Defender Classic 110 V8 price
Naturally, a restomod this extensive and expertly-done doesn’t come cheap.
Overfinch is asking $419,990 for this soft-top Defender 110, which is located in the US.
However, for a 4×4 that looks this good and is this luxurious, the price is justified.
