# Shoreline Vehicle Design

> Shoreline Vehicle Design builds custom Land Rover Defenders from the ground up. Every vehicle starts with a genuine classic Defender 90 or Defender 110 donor, stripped to the bare chassis and rebuilt through a nine-stage process. Builds are available across four editions: Heritage, Beach, Villain, and Modern. Workshops are located in the UK, with delivery worldwide and operations supporting clients across the United States from Miami, Florida.

Shoreline is a custom Defender builder, not a dealership. Vehicles are commissioned to a client's specification or purchased from current available inventory. Every build includes a restored chassis, Range Rover-standard paintwork, a hand-built interior, a fully rebuilt or new drivetrain, a 500-mile road test, full photographic documentation of the build, and a 12-month warranty.

## Editions

- [Heritage](https://www.shorelinevehicles.com/shoreline-heritage): A classic Defender with heritage-correct styling and modern mechanicals underneath, for clients who want the original character without the original reliability problems.
- [Beach](https://www.shorelinevehicles.com/shoreline-beach): An open-air soft top Defender, stripped back and built for coastal use, with marine-grade hardware and teak decking.
- [Villain](https://www.shorelinevehicles.com/shoreline-villain): A wide-body, high-performance Defender with an aggressive stance, the most visually striking build in the lineup.
- [Modern](https://www.shorelinevehicles.com/shoreline-modern): LS3 V8 power, a luxury interior, and contemporary technology, built to feel like a modern vehicle while keeping classic Defender character.

## Platforms
