LR-XS

We are a company focused on providing outstanding service with vehicles to match.

We offer only the best from the Defender and "Classic" range of Land Rover Vehicles. We also provide comprehensive servicing and many enhancements, be it anything to do with comfort, soundproofing and in car entertainment, or perhaps improving the ride, performance and usabilty of your beloved Land Rover. Many people put up with those little gremlins that "proper" Land Rovers have built in, not us

! We are true perfectionists and treat every Land Rover as if it were our own making sure that no matter what it's age, we can make the best of it. We also provide spares and accessories so please get in touch and I will be happy to assist.

Bank holiday weekend Caption contest time!

Winner gets some chocolates sent to them :) (sorry not in time for Easter lol)

Hope you all have a good few days off and/or get some tinkering with your Landy🥳

Some might say it's a bit extreme for a spring clean? :P

Ben is prepping the interior of the Defender 90 ready for a custom made interior carpet lining and soundproofing kit, the previous carpet had been stuck on with spray glue so it needed a good hot wash to get it off.

10/03/2026

Ben is making good progress on the green Defender 90, the interior has been completely removed to make way for sound proofing and custom made carpet. The dashboard is having a little sound proofing but more importantly some speaker upgrades.
The kit has been fitted and is now just waiting for the first test drive once the rest of the car is back together.

Looking forward to seeing the interior and roof back on as it's going to make quite a difference :)

03/03/2026

Time for some more paint repairs over in the bodyshop! The roof is suffering from some severe lacquer peeling so it's time for a refresh in a new colour, watch this space to see the transformation.

Special thanks to our Neighbour Mitch for the mid video drone jump :P

27/02/2026

Here's a timelapse of Ben fitting some of the air suspension system onto the Defender 90, there's a lot more including wiring, height sensors, valve blocks, compressor and tank etc

We'll upload some photo's next to show some of the detail involved but here you can see the air bags, bump stops and shocks being fitted/moved.

26/02/2026

One of the projects in the workshop this week involves quite a list of upgrades to a Defender 90, in this video is a quick flyby of the air suspension fitting in progress.
We've also got some timelapses to show a bit more detail.

The car will be in the workshop for a little while yet as it is having sound proofing installed, paint repairs and other improvements.

The aim for this visit is to improve the handling characteristics and also some cosmetic work as we have already undertaken quite a comprehensive list of mechanical work so it's time for some nice upgrades!

24/02/2026

The Defender 110 accident repairs are pretty much all complete now, we just need to carry out a final test drive with a check over on the ramp alongside a fresh MOT.

Here's a quick video of the "DEFENDER" logo going back on the bonnet after the paint repairs, it's always fun trying to line up a straight two piece decal with a slightly curved and rounded edge 🥵

On a side note, isn't our car park (the graveyard) looking rather tidy! :D

23/02/2026

We went to the Tea on the Tailgate Kent meeting this Sunday at Penshurst place cafe, it's the first one any of us have been to but certainly looking forward to some more.
It was a bit of a wet one but the awning came in handy, even though James managed to rip one of the straps off 😱

A nice mix of Land Rovers, including Series 1's, 2's, Range Rover P38s, Discoveries and of course plenty of Defenders - lots of interesting owners to chat to and we even spotted some customers!
We took the LR-XS Demo Defender 110 with James' trailer attached, the Defender Wolf (also known as the pub car ;) ) and Adam & Louise took their Series 3 LWB 109 out for a bounce along the country lanes to say hello.

20/02/2026

Trying out our little drone's AI tracking features, this is all shot without using the controller and just letting it focus on a person (Adam)

Not fully happy with the results yet but thought I'd upload the video anyway :P

Here we are taking the doors off so we can lift the body away from the chassis, ready for replacement on the Defender 110 Puma accident repair

Let us know if there's anything in particular you'd like to see in our future videos!

19/02/2026

Throwback to Christmas time when our customers, Alun and Ben Scott very kindly brought in a Panttone for the team to devour :D

Who doesn't love cake surrounded by engine parts!

(Don't worry we do actually eat in a clean room 😃)

16/02/2026

We've got a Defender 110 Puma in for some accident damage repairs.
It's now having a replacement chassis, front wings and towbar, alongside some other repairs.
Although the front end doesn't look hugely damaged, the force was enough to snap one of the engine mounts!
