Keswick D90 Beach

Keswick Green D90 Beach

About the Build

When the customer commissioned this Shoreline D90 Heritage Beach build, the brief was clear, a refined, comfortable Defender built for everyday driving. The customer chose to keep the original 300 TDI engine but upgraded to an automatic transmission for a more relaxed driving experience. Aesthetically, the build was specified in Keswick Green and paired with 18-inch deep dish split rim steel wheels colour-matched to the body, with aluminum trim throughout. A Tan soft top and Heritage-style grille give the exterior a classic, period-correct feel. Inside, full Tan fluted leather, heated front seats, and an Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, DAB infotainment system deliver the modern comfort to match.
