Despite New Addition to the Defender Family, Enthusiasts Still Seek Custom Classic Defenders

Hello!

A world leader in custom Land Rover Defenders, E.C.D. Automotive Design
continues to breathe new life into the classic British icons despite the
recent arrival of the newest addition to the Defender family. Seeing a
thirty-percent year-on-year increase in demand for the custom classic
Defenders, E.C.D. has had to scale its team and production facility to
ensure they meet the demand.

As a premier source of automotive news, I thought this would be aligned
with your current news and posts.

*Despite New Addition to the Defender Family, Enthusiasts Still Seek Custom
Classic Defenders*

*KISSIMMEE, FL – September 19, 2019* – A world leader in custom Land Rover
Defenders, E.C.D. Automotive Design continues to breathe new life into the
classic British icons despite the recent arrival of the newest addition to
the Land Rover Defender family. Seeing a thirty-percent year-on-year
increase in demand for the custom classic Defenders, E.C.D. has had to
scale its team and production facility to ensure they meet the demand.

The most recent classic delivered by E.C.D. is Project A-Layne, a custom
D110 finished in Tamar Blue with a Chawton White roof. Its medium-blue hue
and contrasting white roof with white steel wheels are reminiscent of the
classic Heritage look. On the outside, this custom D110 boasts a simple,
yet tasteful design while under the hood, it’s anything but. This D110 is
powered by a 6.2L LS3 V8-engine with 430-bhp. The LS3 is the most popular
engine choice among E.C.D. clients for its performance, reliability, and
ease of maintenance and upgrades.

The interior of Project A-Layne is luxuriously designed with inspiration
from its European roots. The Corbeau Trailcats and rear bench seats are
upholstered in Italian Spinneybeck Espresso leather with a custom blue and
beige tartan pattern in the center. The cream headliner and
cappuccino-colored wool carpet of this D110 make the interior look bright
and rich. Similarly, colored floor mats offer protection for the carpet.
The wood-grain accents of Project A-Layne complete the look. Modern
technology in this custom D110 includes CarPlay for Apple or Android
devices, wireless charging for mobile devices, a premium JL Audio sound
system, and USB ports throughout.

Project A-Layne combines old-school charm with modern luxuries.
