WE enthusiasts already know the attractions of owning a Land Rover of course, but over the past ten years it’s safe to say that companies such as Portugal’s Cool ‘n’ Vintage, Brooklyn Coachworks from the US and the Dutch company Heritage Customs have attracted new customers into the Land Rover fold. An iconic shape, some funky colours and the promise of adventure are irresistible for the lifestyle buyer.
Over here in the UK, Northamptonshire-based ACH Classic specialises in high-end rebuilds and restomods that are built to customer order. “Our customers come to us with an idea of what they might want from a vehicle, but it’s only after spending time with them and learning why it is they want a Land Rover, and – more importantly – what they want to do with it, that we can build them the Land Rover they want,” says ACH’s founder David Atkinson.
ACH Classic is a development from David’s previous business specialising in high-end covered vehiclegoing concern, with the company still providing transport for the classic car and motorsport sectors.
