Does anyone know anything about "Icon" Defenders? I was driving behind one today, and the only info I can find online is that they're from a tuning company in Los Angeles, and very expensive, like $300,000 expensive! It wasn't much different from standard to look at apart from the Masai type glass roof and fancy alloys.

Do they not have big block yankee engines fitted to them?

Cheers

I think so, it was bloody fast for a Defender when it overtook a van!

I always thought Icon was the overpriced tat that Nene Overland flogged?

Some had V8s some had 3.2 TDCis some where pretty standard with a 40k price tag
