The Vitesse Defender 90 Recreation
Introducing the Vitesse Defender 90 recreation, Vitesse Global’s homage to the original series Land Rovers and Defenders
Vitesse Global is proud to announce the roll-out of the Vitesse Defender 90. This homage to the classic Land Rovers 1950s and 60s to today, with classic paint shades, soft top driving with the canvas roof, tweed and leather upholstery and all-round classic styling offers the practicality of a modern Defender in a package sure to evoke a sense of nostalgia in anyone who has so much as set foot in the countryside or urban jungle …
The vehicle offers more than just nostalgia though, with high-quality materials used throughout, including tweed options from Cordings of Piccadilly, fresh paintwork, and design touches to give the classic look without compromise, all undertaken by our passionate team of technicians.

Our second option is perfect for you if you are looking for a Vitesse Defender 90 but do not yet have a vehicle to convert. We will source the perfect vehicle to fit your budget, give it a full mechanical and structural assessment and then work through the vehicle’s transformation.What's Included
Each Vitesse Defender 90 will be built entirely to your specification but there are a few key items that we think make for an end product that stays true to its roots:
- Tweed and Italian hide leather upholstery - Cordings of Piccadilly have a plethora of tweed options for you to choose from giving an individual style and quality to the interior of this iconic vehicle. We pair that with the best Italian leather
- Full Canvas roof – a selection of shades are available to coordinate with your body colour selection
- Bikini Canvas roof - Perfect for the summer months, this back-to-basics roof covers just the front seats, supplied with a roof material canvas bag to stow ether the bikini or full hood behind the front seats when not in use for tidy and clean storage
- Paintwork – Full interior and exterior respray, this gives the ability for complete colour change, rivets and spot welds are left in place as they are a feature of the vehicle’s no-nonsense build and rugged looks. Paint colour - Your paint colour is entirely your choice, however, we do have a range of preferred shades, to help you achieve the perfect vintage Defender 90 look
