FOLEY Defender 6x6 Conversions
|
Built in 2000 as a Global Explorer and powered by the trusted 300 Tdi. It was built at great expense from a New LHD ROW base vehicle.
Fitted with the Foley 6x6 unit and locking diffs, 1000 ltr fuel tank, full lifting roof and many other extras. This vehicle now has had 2 owners and the vehicle continues to drive all over the world on the original engine. We have just (2020) completed a refit to the vehicle ready for its next adventure. This is a beast of a vehicle that has been used hard for what it was made for....adventure. |
|
This is the above vehicle prior to the body being built and it was tested as a chassis cab first.
The original vehicle was red and so the vehicle remained red with a splash of white. Its is now painted Rosso Red. |
|
Built in 2019, for a gentleman who knew exactly what he wanted. This was powered by a Recon 300 Tdi engine and fitted with a Foley 6x6 unit.
All built onto a new custom galvanized chassis. Many other parts were also galvanized to last the test of time. Custom Roll Cage for safety and interior to spec. This was all painted in parts and assembled in this classic Blue. |
|
Caribbean calling!!!
We built 5 of these mega long 6x6 vehicles using the Foley 6x6 unit. The idea was to move as many people at any one time from the cruise ships that would come in to the Islands. 20 passengers at a time could fit it the rear and go on a great Island safari. |
|
This beast was fitted with the Foley 6x6 unit and limited slip differentials which, when combined with good off road tires, means you can go pretty much where ever.
A custom roll cage is added for safety. An LS3 Engine and Auto box gets you going and a set of uprated brakes get you stopped in no time.
The ONE and ONLY - No 1 of 1
This is what we can do, everything is made in our workshop and customised to fit this one off vehicle. Fitted with an LS3 and 6 speed auto, twin Air con and 6 Recaro seats. (spec on request) This vehicle is a 2015 XS built vehicle - viewing by appointment only. Dry stored. |
