Heritage Customs introduces Valiance Convertible, a contemporary twist on classic open Defender. This is a bespoke Carchitecture project based on Land Rover Defender 90. Heritage Customs allows customers to work closely with their team of specialist designers and craftspeople via the personal commission guide called Carchitecture. In this program patrons can create or enhance their own unique Heritage Customs vehicle.

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE DETAILS
HOURS OF LABOUR BY CRAFTSMEN
Looking back and thinking of the iconic classic Defender, you would probably picture a convertible instantly. That charming soft top, still boasting the rough looks and featuring all capabilities of a true Land Rover 4×4, is the fundament of the Valiance Convertible.
Open air driving takes on a new persona in this one of five bespoke Convertible. As well as the bold silhouette you’ve come to expect, the Heritage Customs Valiance Convertible roof takes craftmanship one step further. Exclusive to this vehicle is the hand-stitched hood.
We’ll also outline how you can reserve your very own Valiance Convertible.
