TAKING DELIVERY! Custom Build Land Rover Defender V8 'THOR' Arrives!

[@DailyDrivenExotics]

OMG that is insane. Such a cool build. The level of detail in this is crazy. From all the billet parts to the custom leather / Alcantara interior. I love it. Well done bro. 🔥

[@MrJWW]

Thanks mate! 7 seater, maybe influenced by Carrera Van GT 🤓 be good fun to shuttle us around when you’re over in the UK 😜

[@Danielsimpsonite]

Imagine running one of these alongside the hummer H1 in the snow in Canada, Damon and Dave would have a hell of a time. Bring the wives, kids, dogs and the film crew.

[@DailyDrivenExotics]

@@MrJWW you definitely one upped me you bastard. Now I’m thinking of how to make my H1 as nice as your defender. And the answer is 💰💰 lots and lots of money! 😂 I can’t wait for a ride in that when we come to visit

[@aali1287]

@@DailyDrivenExotics would be great to see you guys over this side of the pond ❤

[@C-24-Brandan]

That Def is way nicer, better looking & will outdue any H1 , sorry to say it lol. That's one of the cleanest & best looking 4x4 builds of a truck from that time period.

[@motorbikeireland]

What a build and end result. You must be thrilled with it!! Best of luck with the new Beast James and hope to one day see it in the metal!

[@bb-nq5qc]

F--ing brilliant monster of a Defender. The build ended up more elegant, yet raw than I anticipated.

[@alexoienundertheveil4742]

By far the most beautiful and sinister defender I've ever seen the quality is impeccable and detailed is exquisite mr.jww what an absolute beauty to add to your collection and channel I hope everyone appreciates this build to the fullest God bless brother and may u and ur team go on many adventures with it

[@Raz5219]

Wow, what a great build! Question: How is the on-road handling now with the lift and Fox suspension? Original Defenders are pretty dodgy in that department, and the only thing that's keeping me from building one.

[@MrJWW]

First drive coming soon I’ll let you know! 😅🙏🏼

[@AlexLR]

It will handle like a boat. There’s just no need to lift it like that, especially when you then mount exhausts that low on the side and a very low front bumper. Bet you it vibrates like hell at motorway speeds and will regularly kill propshafts. I built a 90, slightly lowered with bigger arb’s and most importantly ATB diffs front, centre and rear. It has an LS3 with around 500hp and handles brilliantly for a defender. Lifts are for posers with little willies!

[@casual9982]

I actually saw a Defender 90 with that back glass over here in the states, it intrigued me because it definitely gives a cleaner look. Awesome build, incredible 110👏🏻👏🏻

[@MrJWW]

Thanks buddy!

[@rossmontreal4570]

Don’t let Damon ever drive it. Congrats JWW is beautiful and it’s a monster! 💚💚💚🇨🇦

[@MegaRetr]

What a build and end result.

[@Kasou01]

Definitely has that "mafia going cross-country" kind of vibe. Such a cool car!

[@ItzEmmaunelworld_3]

facts!!!!

[@MrJWW]

😂👍🏻

[@lttlejordan23]

Looks so good! Great spec! Looks mean and retains a semblance of elegance. I guess that is credit to how well they built it. Fitment, materials, etc. Love it!

[@nomsi4263]

How much does it cost. Is it cgeaoer than a Barbus 😅

[@sspkt]

Love that side rear windows wrap around the corners to the back. Such a cool and refreshing detail.

[@tillyfoxtrotter]

I'm the opposite - every thing looks great except the rear glass treatment - nothing about the 'office block' glazing ties in with the rest of the car. Different yes, good No.

[@sspkt]

@@tillyfoxtrotter It is all about that small details, that one loves and other hate, isn't it? I appreciate the thought behind this.

[@David_Smith_]

The truck is rad!

[@topzac]

Absolutely awesome. What a vehicle! 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@MattSmith-vl7yu]

What a car, you guys certainly know how to spec a vehicle

[@MrJWW]

Thanks! It’s been a brilliant journey with JE Motorworks 🎅🏼🏁

[@hhgv]

Wow, I’d say you nailed the spec! 🤩

[@shaneolivier1650]

What an awesome spec,love it 👌👍

[@darrenboston342]

A knob wagon for a knob!… perfect match I’d say!👌

[@mra7890]

Heavy

[@stephengraham6194]

Love the defender no expense spared there top quality all the way. Cool wagon now go get her dirty 👍

[@iainf6]

Absolutely the best car I've ever seen on the channel James ......this is absolutely brilliant!!! 🎊🥰🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🔥

[@dennispatrick4999]

Amazing Build. I would love one.

[@andyeasy4106]

It just needs a big LED light bar along the top to finish it off 👌

[@risgio5312]

Bigger then a Hummer h2 what a badass Defender, i like shoe box models suv's ...good job😅😍

[@MarcSob22]

Amazing machine! Congratulations!

[@LachupacabraRO]

8:21 is perfect frame for brit craftmanship these days, blasted back in time.

[@Tomasz527422]

LOVE IT! Take it to Iceland for adventure! :)

[@costafilh0]

It looks less big than expected! Loved it!

[@hopper131]

Thor literally looks like a Bond-villain henchman's SUV from a car chase. BAD ASS.

[@fritzrossouw4458]

Insane build! Looks fantastic. Well done Mr. JWW

[@HellcatDreaminJosh]

Mr JWW absolutely Incredible Video I think JE did an absolutely incredible job with Thor and I think that Interior is Absolutely Gorgeous and Merry Belated Christmas to you your family and all of your Subscribers

[@redlion1818]

Beautiful Beast ! Awesome to see something off road designed 😀

[@warsteel1]

Very clean build reminds me of ICON in the U.S..well done ✔️ 👌

[@R19Robbin]

Looks awesome 💪🔥

[@harrysalci3981]

I never knew a Monster like this can also be Classy👌

[@dukie1616]

That thing is amazing👏 I wouldn’t be surprised if you started getting some very reasonable offers for that beaut.

[@AsifAsif-tv2iz]

Very nice Land Rover defender ❤️❤️

[@Jonothethird]

Amazing build by JE. Fantastic engineering and detail. Only things I would personally change would be less lift, a roof rack and light bar and a rear work light. Can I ask the cost?

[@longfinger]

That is a beauty! Great build!

[@MrJWW]

Thanks buddy!

[@agnesf2659]

Very pleasing build! I'd like to see it on all-season tires for day-to-day use. Hope on-road tires would look good too.

[@MrJWW]

I agree it needs it for the longer trips 👍🏻

[@CartierCasey]

That’s Badass

[@Jannerjaunts]

That thing looks sick. 💪🏼

[@wayne2069]

That is an awesome bit of kit James, any chance you can go against DDE’s Hummer H1 I’m confident the Defender would beat it in any situation, I’m still stunned by the suspension 🙀

[@somerandomfella]

It looks and sounds like an evil villans car. All you need is bullet proof windows, pop up machine guns and hidden compartments 😎 Have a happy NY Mr JWW 🤙

[@ErikBernethy]

This thing is sick! I want one, great build James!

[@996Revival]

This thing is awesome 😮

[@nickpapadatos5263]

Started to follow after DDE introduced him .🇦🇺👍🔥

[@hasanakber2776]

the beast it has turned into. Excellent job done.

Cool build!!

[@DuvJones]

I have to be honest, this is the most American Land Rover that I have ever seen.... good show.

[@MrJWW]

Ha ha achievement unlocked! 😅👍🏻

[@DuvJones]

@@MrJWW Question: When is the road trip to dubai with this?

[@adenadrianamontreal2633]

Sick truck 👌

[@sebastianjo752]

What a car, this is awesome

[@shadow-Sun]

quality engineering all around good job fellahs .

[@markjackson6325]

Removable steering wheel on a Defender would be essential where I live - might help to prevent it getting stolen.

[@bobbygoodman2875]

JWW, what a fabulous build! This would be my dream car. Congratulations my man.

[@Milldog2023]

Dude, you deffo need a winch on that, lol first thing i thought of was Dave and if damon gets his hands on it, it be 6 foot in the air in no time at all.. There's a few hills in DDE's backyard for bigfooting, 4x4, Glamping in the woods haha Just need boys to finish the H1, Rig it out with powerful power systems, Ghost squad does alberta lol... Wish you all the best for 2023 👍👍

[@gibbethoskins8621]

The driver position in these is just beyond repair tbh

[@pb65vibes]

Well made bro, gud choice n ncly built beast,i wna ride in it smday😇🍺👍👑

[@wearemahker]

What figures did it make on the Dyno I’m interested in 🤔

[@Utopiatwentytwo]

I've seen and worked on alot of Land Rovers but this is something else!

[@ToreHansen]

Congrats this is bonkers!!

[@henrikfabricius761]

Beautiful pieace of machinery and what an engine!!!!

[@costafilh0]

The brown front console and panel is a bit too much for me but everything else looks freaking perfect!

[@The_Great_Escapist]

That is a thing of beauty. Bet it has real presence in the flesh.

wow. that's one kick A** Defender . love it. also, love your Royal Oak offshore 😉 .

A work of art.

Super 👌 👍 😍

[@ezbron]

THIS IS EPIC! Well done James and JE! We want to see this dirty...if you know what i mean! haha

[@jgonzalesm6]

Nice video and nice ride. Love the long sleeve with the Saab ghost squadron logo in the back. Koenigsegg uses that logo on their cars since the cars are built on an airfield that past Saab military jets used.

[@jgonzalesm6]

@Message__my_jww - okay.....how?

[@bits2646]

Love the Koeniggsegg shirt :DDD BTW, that's even better than G class 4x4 squared :DD Gotta love the dude's accent :)

[@ThePizzaman74]

That's a cool Rig your got there.

[@moeljatisoel9277]

its the most beautiful muscle vehicle ever, bagus

[@kalelwilson8337]

She's a beautiful beast... I like it allot...

[@laurencehiggins239]

Replace that trash winch line with a Warn or a Factor 55 synthetic line and you'll save even more weight and increase tensile strength. Also won't rust!

[@johnlummis5119]

My favourite Land Rover done beautifully, sounds glorious, I would have thought a lightbar may be appropriate to compliment the winch lol

[@SilentlyGamingNow]

That’s a beautiful Landrover,,,, love this cars

[@Stenbox]

8:06 is there a yellow Yaris GR in the parking lot? Do they sell it in that color there or is that painted?

[@shawnmcfarland4743]

So Appropriate Mr.JWW , well done JE

It will be Good to see you and that fanatic car at the start of the GUMBALL in Edinburgh in 2023😆 May I be the first to wish you and all your family and friends A very Happy New Year 🎉 and see you in Edinburgh next Year kind regards alan,and family

[@jasonbecker3319]

Sweet spec James!

[@srspower]

It would be great if it wasn't for the engine. There are plenty of 300hp 3 litre TDI engines you could use. Add a massive fuel tank and you'd have something that would have the same power but with a much longer range.

[@neilt1889]

You need to show DDE Damon this so he can see what a proper off roader is not that junk H1 👍

[@mousecat9398]

that is so nice

[@asr1143]

i hope it will go into its normal habitat.

[@petrospetrospetrospetros]

Insane

[@michaelwalker1145]

That removable steering wheel is a must on eny defender. Another one is a secret brake lock. Stop apply brakes NOT hand brake then push hidden switch This locks them ( hydraulic locking valve inline.)on so it's not going enywhere. Power to lock on and power to unlock.

[@jumaallan7210]

Sweet build🔥 What rim size are you using, and tyre profile as well?

[@miltononyango]

you give me goose bumpsd when you rave
