The Paul Smith Land Rover Defender may be the most fashionable off-roader around. Yes, you'd look good tearing up the countryside in a Mercedes G-Class or BMW X5, but how many of those were given the one-off treatment by a knighted fashion designer? Smith, who is apparently a longtime Defender owner, put his unique touch on the iconic SUV by covering it in 27 different colors. The colors weren't an accident and were chosen because they represent both the English countryside and the military.
Yes, the paint by numbers look of the Paul Smith Land Rover Defender was intentional. In addition to its original paint job there is also embroidering designed to be playful and fun, such as the keys stitched into the glove compartment and a bee on the roof.
