Founder-Designed Inventory Showcases Unique Colorways Inspired by the United Kingdom
KISSIMMEE, Fla., March 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ECD Auto Design (NASDAQ: ECDA), the industry leader in bespoke Land Rover Defender restorations, proudly introduces the County Collection—an exclusive Founder-Designed Inventory that pays homage to the rich landscapes and cultural heritage of the United Kingdom. Each vehicle in this limited-edition series is named after a UK county or region, featuring an exclusive color palette inspired by its history, natural beauty, and timeless elegance.
A Tribute to UK Craftsmanship and Exploration
With its roots deeply embedded in British automotive culture, ECD Auto Design was founded on a passion for restoring and reimagining iconic Land Rovers. The County Collection embodies this legacy, merging the heritage of classic Defenders with contemporary luxury and performance. Unlike ECD’s fully custom builds, these meticulously crafted Defenders are available for immediate purchase, offering a rare opportunity to own a bespoke ECD creation without the wait.
"With the County Collection, we wanted to craft something extraordinary that reflects our heritage while providing an immediate ownership experience for collectors and enthusiasts," said Kevin Kastner, Chief Revenue Officer at ECD Auto Design. "Each Defender in this series is a work of art, designed to capture the essence of its namesake county—blending timeless UK influence with modern craftsmanship and performance."
A Curated Palette of the UK’s Iconic Regions
Each Defender in the County Collection draws inspiration from the colors and character of a distinct UK county or region. The debut models include:
-
Bedfordshire (Black) – A deep, rich black inspired by the county’s grand estates and shadowy woodlands.
-
Cumbria (Green) – A lush, verdant hue reminiscent of the rolling hills and misty valleys of the Lake District.
-
Dorset (White) – A crisp, snowy white reflecting the striking coastal cliffs and scenic landscapes.
-
Essex (Gold) – A warm golden tone mirroring the county’s vibrant fields and historic charm.
More uniquely inspired models are in production, with additional vehicles set to be unveiled throughout 2025. Each Defender in the County Collection is an invitation to adventure—crafted with precision, steeped in history, and designed to turn heads.
