Having received much
acclaim for fashioning his first Defender in November 2012, Afzal
Kahn has given his signature stamp to a military dalliance with the
Defender.
Under the Kahn
expedition vehicles umbrella, the 'Chelsea truck company' introduces
the aptly titled Defender wide body Military edition.
And the principal
British designer, who prides himself on the professional pseudonym
�The Road is my Catwalk�, delivers this high-impact edition with
such clout; it is safe to say that this military grey game-changer
would not look out of place with London, Chelsea or New York centric
drivers, rock climbers and off-roaders at the helm, nor would it
look weary as troops speed into combat �feeling almost unstoppable
with excellent ground clearance, grip levels and good axle
articulation.
To match the Iconic feel
of the underlying car, the Kahn Defender is adorned with a brand new
utilitarian and aggressive looking wide track arch kit which
consists of lightweight extended wide wheel wings with integrated
vents, embossed Kahn feature, vented headlight surrounds, side vents
with mesh, bonnet vents with mesh, clear rear light lenses, clear
side repeaters, clear front light lenses, crosshair headlights, Kahn
prototype wing blades, Kahn prototype tailgate badge and Kahn oval
tailgate badge.
But there�s more to this
vehicle than just an exterior styling package. Measures that protect
passengers are also available. The team at A. Kahn Design can
install layers of armored plates underneath the bodywork of the
Defender, without having to modify the exterior of the car. All of
the windows can also be replaced with special bulletproof glass
similar to glass used to protect government officials. One of the
major advantages to the glass installed by A Kahn Design is that it
is thinner and lighter but still offers significant protection and
improved light transition to the interior.
Furthermore, a
commitment to cultivate the vehicle ensures a state of the
bullet-proof glass, much lighter than type of glass used to protect
world statesmen is also available, ensuring maximum protection.
The Kahn Defender also
scores profoundly with its luxurious cabin, there�s enough space in
there to place all your belongings and then-some!
And once you've pounded
through a hard day�s work, or driven through rugged terrain - you
really want to ride home in a comfortable bespoke seat.
The company philosophy
is to always give the customers what they want, so Afzal Kahn could
for example, design you a vehicle with full colour change (to a
colour of your choice) and an interior akin to, let�s say, your
favourite leather reclining chair in your living room. Customers
could also change the colour of the clock, or ask for anything else,
the world is their oyster, so to speak.
Kahn wheels sit
perfectly on any vehicle, conveying the essence of the vehicle's
identity. Created using state-of-the art manufacturing and materials
technology, the 8�x16� 1948 Defender wheels are finished in matte
black and fit all original centre caps. With simple clean lines,
soft organic surfaces on the edge of the spoke and a purposeful
mechanical centre, the 1948 Defender wheels are synonymous with
elegance and innovation.
A. Kahn Design is for
the individual who will not submit to a life of uniformity and who
will only accept perfection. Dedicated to the creation of luxury
bespoke vehicles, we redesign the ordered monotony of mass produced
vehicles and rebuild them into individually tailored creations.
