A Tophat speaks louder than words.
The Land Rover Defender. A car that was synonymous with snorkels, bull bars, winches, trenches and the savannah in Africa. These days, the average Dutch Defender has it a little easier. The steepest slope is the bridge of the Prinsengracht and off-roading through the sandy path to horseback riding lessons is also quite something, Baudouin! But oh well, the Defender is and remains, practical considerations aside, an icon!
And nowadays you can put nice crosses with Designo of the G, for example, but nothing can match the Top(hat). Each of these are unique cars and you don't have to worry about running into your neighbor in the same one. After all, they are all one offs.
So is this one, but you probably already saw that. The previous owner had these built and delightfully designed. Building a Tophat really involves everything: every bolt, hinge and rubber is replaced with high-quality material. The sheet metal is disassembled, inspected and repainted in a color to your liking. The color to your liking? Then of course you choose this color! After all, she has a color from Ferrari. California Azzurro Metallizzato. The interior, of course, has also been heavily reworked, new seats with diamond stitching, leather dashboard, alcantara sun visors, we could go on and on. The cargo box has been transformed into Teak, which is a perfect combination with the color. Also, that cargo box is slightly raised. Why? Because it has a pull-out drawer underneath. For a uuuhh, for example. Beverage cabinet! Driving pleasure with a drop of sophistication. Will we see you soon?
