2005 Land Rover 110 TD5 Double Cab XS

The Kinlee Collection illustrates our vendor's lifelong devotion to improvement. Eclectic, yes, but each motor car represents an aspect of our vendor's personality. Having bought many cars from us over the years, we appreciate our vendor's loyalty in returning the nostalgic Escort RS16000 and much-improved E-Type back into our care for the next custodians. Before we come to the extraordinary Wolf Defenders, the unique restoration of the 110 Pick-Up started out as a wager between our vendor and his friend, who together have changed the skyline of a major city, and whether he'd recognise his old car once it had gone through our vendor's private workshop, he didn't!

Our vendor's appreciation of engineering started early, awarded Student of the Year five years running whilst ignoring the obvious distractions of 1970s college life. With success came fast cars and a classic Aston Martin or two, but one day, an interest for improving a certain type of Land Rover began and became a passion that has grown into a private workshop with skilled technicians who do take their time when restoring the cars and maintaining our vendor’s fleet of classic Astons, Jensens and more. Finally, when asked by this consignor of the significance of Kinlee, our vendor referred us to his favourite song by The Kinks: I’m Not Like Everybody Else.

First registered on 16th December 2005, our vendor bought this 110 Defender Double Cab in May 2021. Unlike the Wolf Defenders, he decided to have a bit of fun with a standard car, enhancing a utility vehicle to give it a more of an aggressive stance. The vehicle was stripped down to the chassis and completely rebuilt with each panel painted separately before reassembly. The chassis was cleaned and treated professionally. Our vendor tells us that a lot of thought went into the styling, with parts supplied by Uproar 4x4 with lots of bespoke stainless steel parts fitted to the double cab to give a bit of a stealth look. It’s fitted with an Alisport intercooler, Stealth rock sliders, bespoke bumper, light bar with Stealth bonnet armour and billet air vents to match to give that cool, aggressive stance.

The rear load bay is fitted with a Bison Design 80mm diameter roll cage and a Willis Systems load bay kit. Wipac smoked glass LED lights fitted all-round are finished, with bespoke light guards to give that added protection. A complete, new, genuine XS second-row seating package was supplied by JLR Parts Ltd. with matching modular front seats, a cubby box by Exmoor Trim, and the effect is finished off with a Momo steering wheel and a new Alcantara roof lining. Sitting on a new set of BF Goodrich All-Terrain tyres on new black Sawtooth wheels and ready to face any challenge. The current odometer reading is 66,650 miles and the advisory free MOT is valid until 3rd April 2024.
