Arkonik show off their immaculate­ly restored Defender, nicknamed the Boulder

-

Arkonik have been restoring and sourcing Defenders to bespoke specificat­ions for customers all over the world since they were founded in 2007, and their latest project is the perfect example of what they do best.

A Defender 110 Station Wagon, the one-off Boulder has a wealth of exterior enhancemen­ts including a Front Runner roof rack with ladder, KBX grille, A-bar and front light guards, as well as Fire & Ice side and NAS rear steps. Finished in a dark Bonatti Grey with Java Black wheel arches, wing mirrors and Kahn 1983 wheels, this truck certainly looks more imposing than when it left the factory.

The Somerset-based specialist­s have worked their magic inside too, re-upholsteri­ng the front seats in grey leather, while an Elite Loc-box separates the two premium high back rear seats. In addition, four tip-up seats fitted in the load bay area add a dose of practicali­ty. Other interior modificati­ons include a retro Evander 15 inch wooden steering wheel, alloy gear knobs and an Alpine sound system that incorporat­es Apple Carplay, bringing it up to date.

Primarily concentrat­ing on the North American market, Arkonik Defenders are exclusivel­y over 25 years old, in keeping with import regulation­s. This vehicle is being shipped to a customer in the US state of Colorado.
