    It appears to be a brand new luxury camper conversion by SLR caravans - on a defender. Not quite visible in the photo is the company logo. Unless it's minus a muffler, it also has something awesome under the bonnet because it sounded, well, wicked. I'm familiar with Isuzu, Td5 and Puma noises, and they aren't it.

    ( This is their webpage : SLR Caravans and Motorhomes Home Page ) No mention of it as yet.

    this ought to give you defender owners inspiration.
    That thing looks awesome.... I'll keep a lookout for more specs as it looks like they've one the extra mile.

    Cheers

    The roof structure is reinforced where the center section is cut out, so I don't think there is too much rigidity lost.

    You'll forgive me for thinking that it was a new vehicle - up close it was immaculate ( even in the rain). And, for whatever reason there were no number plates.

    Well done 03Boz
