Could this be the most powerful Defender?
Do you fancy a 650Hp Defender 110 Pickup?
This stunning custom-built Defender is up for auction in the US. 3R Automotive, a Colorado-based premium classic car restoration and repair workshop, has transformed a humble 1985 Land Rover Defender 110 Pickup into a true beast. The modifications are impressive, and the vehicle now boasts a supercharged 6.2 litre LS3 V8 engine under the bonnet, producing a staggering 650 horsepower! It is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission, which allows it to drive as strong as it looks.
I hope they have upgraded the diffs and drive shafts!
