Land Rover Defender Flying Huntsman 105 Longnose
The Land Rover Defender is not a vehicle that needs any modification, but that hasn’t stopped the team at Kahn Design from consistently pumping out custom versions of the beloved go anywhere vehicle. This time around the company’s CEO and Chief Designer has decided to create a project of his own – meet the Land Rover Defender 105 Longnose “Flying Huntsman.”
Easily the most ambitious project from the British design firm, this 2-door has received an extra 15 inches to the standard 90-inch wheel base (which is where the “105” in the name comes from). Like many of its predecessors, this thing has been equipped with a 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine pumping out 400-plus horsepower through a six-speed automatic transmission. Upgraded brakes and suspension were also needed to ensure ample stopping power and the ability to tackle any terrain. The vehicle is expected to fetch roughly $190,000, and will make its official debut at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show. The brand also announced that it will be working on a 6×6 version as well. We can’t wait. [Purchase]
