East Coast Defender New Flair, Classic Style

Located in central Florida, a little more than a stone’s throw from the House of Mouse, is a business devoted to the restoration of Land Rover Defenders called East Coast Defender. The whole thing started innocently enough a few years back, when Tom Humble and his wife moved to the U.S. from England. A life-long petrol head, Tom brought a couple Land Rover Defenders over with him when he made the move. Not knowing exactly what to do with them, Tom threw them up on eBay and within a couple weeks had them sold. But the story doesn’t stop there, soon he had people coming to him looking for Defenders and asking if he could get more.

Kia Sportage

Brand-new Kia vehicles are making a greater impact on the automotive landscape than ever before. That success has also endowed pre-owned Kia models with an aura of desirability. The ’15 Sportage compact crossover was even named 2017’s fastest-selling used vehicle in Britain. The same thing happened the previous year with the ’14 model.
