Custom Creation Two British icons—automakers Land Rover and fashion designer Paul Smith—team up to pay tribute to a true motoring pioneer.

Not all Land Rovers or Range Rovers need be created equally. This one certainly is not. You are looking at a custom-made Land Rover Defender, the result of a collaboration between famed British fashion designer Paul Smith and Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations team, the marque’s secret skunkworks of customer commissions and personalization. Want a bespoke British gun case in the trunk for your next fox hunt out on the range? They can do that.

Those who know Paul Smith’s style will recognize the playful design elements on display here—27 colors were used on the exterior panels from a palette based on colors used throughout British military history, a nod to the Defender’s role as a dependable military and civilian workhorse. Inside, black leather contrasts against blue stitching.

Let this vehicle stand as an inspiration for your one-off, made-just-for-you ride. Call Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations team. Bring your own imagination.
