1989 Kingsley Defender 90 – Azure Blue / 4.2L V8 / TracTive Active Damping
Price: £129,995 | No VAT | Ex-demonstrator

Crafted as our 2024 demonstration build, this Defender 90 blends iconic presence with extraordinary performance and a handcrafted interior of exceptional quality.

Finished in Azure Blue with galvanised details, this Kingsley Defender features wide arches, silver bumpers, a heritage-style front grille, LED lighting upgrade, Optimil brightwork, series-style doors, a Puma bonnet, Bowler lightweight alloys and a sand-coloured bikini-style roof. A sump guard and big brake upgrade complete its assertive, go-anywhere stance.

Underneath, it’s a different beast altogether — powered by our in-house Kingsley 4.2-litre V8, paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox and underpinned by cutting-edge TracTive active damping suspension for exceptional ride control both on and off-road.

Inside, the cabin is redefined with Recaro Expert M front seats, trimmed in Cotswold Stone leather with Spinneybeck woven leather centres, continuing through the dash, cubby box and rear side-facing bench seats. The rear load area features a handcrafted teak floor, inspired by the Rolls-Royce Droptail – a one-off detail that sets this build apart.

Modern comforts include air conditioning, Kingsley’s bespoke instrument binnacle, and a double DIN head unit with wireless Apple CarPlay, upgraded speakers, dedicated amplifier, and a neatly integrated subwoofer.

A truly unique, highly engineered and beautifully appointed Defender — now available for private sale.
