ECD Auto Design Unveils the County Collection: A Celebration of British Heritage and Bespoke Craftsmanship
March 13 2025 - 8:54AM
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.
Beyond a Vehicle—An Exclusive ECD Ownership
Experience
Owning a County Collection Defender is more than
just acquiring a vehicle; it’s about embracing the full ECD
experience. Each purchase includes:
- A Personalized Client
Experience – Owners receive a dedicated introduction to
their Defender from the ECD Client Experience Team.
- The ECD Journey
Book – A beautifully curated book detailing the vehicle’s
unique design inspiration, heritage, and craftsmanship.
- Industry-Leading Warranty
& Service – Every County Collection Defender comes
with the same premium warranty and post-purchase support as ECD’s
custom builds.
"An ECD Defender isn’t just about
transportation—it’s about storytelling, craftsmanship, and
exclusivity," added Kastner. "The County Collection gives
enthusiasts a chance to own a uniquely inspired ECD build, ready to
drive home today, while still enjoying the same meticulous quality
and personalized service that define our brand."
