Defender specialist, Twisted Automotive, has lifted the covers off 16 vehicles that have been barn stored since coming off the production line six years ago.

Sixteen factory-fresh classic Land Rover Defender 110s are now available to buy. The vehicles have less than 30 miles on the clock. There is just one Utility Wagon and one Station Wagon available in each colour, all based on the original XS spec (the highest Land Rover Defender spec at the time).  

By opening its barn doors, Twisted Automotive is inviting people to reserve the last of a generation, never to be replaced.

In 2015, Charles Fawcett, founder and Managing Director of Twisted Automotive, ordered over 200 Land Rover Defenders. 

He explained, “I went to the Defender production line at Solihull to meet the men and women building the vehicles. These sixteen 110s were hand-picked for their chassis numbers and build dates. They were all registered in 2016 - after production ceased - identifying them among the last off the line and, arguably, more collectable. They’re special, and when twisted, each one is the only one. Hence the limited run is called One of One.”

He added, “All of the 16 will be Twisted, but exactly how depends on the lifestyle and tastes of the customer. The Twisted way isn’t to tell people what their Defender should be; it’s to work with them to create a Defender that’s the best fit for them.”

Customers can choose their powertrain. The two options are the TVS 2.3L 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol (308BHP and 350Lb/Ft torque) or TTD 2.2 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel (174BHP and 310Lb/Ft torque).

Build slots are open for delivery in 2023 – 40 years after the launch of the original One Ten.

Twisted’s One of One Defenders are available to reserve, starting from £135,000 + VAT for the 2.2 TTD Utility Wagon in the UK.
