LAND ROVER DEFENDER 110 “SPECTRE” BY BESPOKE - 580 miles

£75,000 | 2005 Double Cab Pickup | 102,660 miles
This is the Defender you turn back to look at.
Deep Lamborghini Verde Ermes metallic paint. Broad gloss-black arches. An imposing external cage, roof-mounted spotlights and a lifted stance planted on substantial off-road tyres. Every angle has presence. Parked beside the water in Cornwall or arriving outside a country hotel, this Spectre-inspired 110 makes an entrance before you even open the door.
Created by Bespoke Defenders of Harrogate, it captures the drama of the James Bond Spectre look in a deeply individual commission. The green-and-black finish gives it a character all its own: muscular, purposeful and unmistakably Defender.
The ambition behind this build is reflected in the investment. Bespoke’s documented conversion alone amounted to £61,433.40, before the cost of the vehicle. That was followed by a £25,759.42 engine rebuild and automatic-conversion project in March 2026, carried out by Steve Toyer Limited, the Land Rover specialist in Cornwall.
Just 580 miles have been covered since the mileage recorded on that rebuild invoice.
Open the door and the attention to detail continues. Leather-trimmed high-back front seats, matching rear seating, leather door cards and cubby box, a leather steering wheel and the ebony suede interior package bring richness and texture to the cabin. Carpeting and soundproofing complete an interior designed to make time behind the wheel part of the attraction.
A Kenwood multimedia head unit sits within a colour-matched green fascia, complemented by a Powerbass three-way speaker system. A reversing camera, Thinkware front and rear dash cameras, USB charging and a dedicated phone mount add everyday convenience.
At its heart is the five-cylinder TD5 turbo-diesel, paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. The 2026 mechanical project included a replacement short engine and cylinder head, Garrett turbocharger, timing-chain kit, oil and water pumps, radiator, intercooler and oil cooler, together with extensive supporting components.
The automatic conversion was accompanied by a heavy-duty torque converter and a rebuilt LT230 transfer box. A replacement Denso starter motor followed in September 2026. It is a substantial programme of specialist work, backed by detailed invoices.
The exterior specification brings the whole build together:
In September 2026, the paintwork received a full professional detail, paint correction and ceramic coating by IShine Valeting in Truro, giving the metallic finish the attention it deserves.
An extensive accompanying history file includes Bespoke conversion documentation, service records and summaries dating back to 2008, MOT paperwork, and invoices for the subsequent mechanical, electrical and detailing work.
For the enthusiast who has always pictured their ultimate Defender, this is a compelling combination: the silhouette, the stance, the colour, the leather cabin and the character of a TD5, with an automatic conversion and major recent mechanical investment already completed.
A Defender with real presence—and the paperwork behind the build.
£75,000. Located in St Mawes, Cornwall.
