ECR... We build your dreams
DEFENDER 110 Expedition Style Vehicle
The images below document one such build up of an ECR Expedition
vehicle.
This 110 project is a 300 Tdi (turbo diesel) version in Arles Blue for an expedition company. It will be fully expedition ready with everything from ARB air lockers and a galv. frame to an Allard Phase 2 intercooler! Awesome! It, like all the ECR Defender 110s, has a new galvanized frame for long rust free life, as well a 5 speed gearbox and numerous off road upgrades. In this image you can see the basic 110 coming together. It has everything from Bilstein shocks to sliding rear windows and tons of storage space for expedition equipment.
In this image the interior is starting to take shape. A new wiring harness is set in place and hooked up. The air locker wiring is also installed as well as heavy duty dual Optima batteries and more.
Here you can see the bodywork further along, the windscreen in place etc. Also now installed is the Allard upgraded inetercooler. This will give this 110 even more power than the stock 300 Tdi. We will also be installing an "economy" mode that will allow the 110 to have on tap power or long range fuel mileage at the flip of a dash switch. Only ECR has this much experience with the 300 Tdi and we are you source for turbo diesel conversions or build ups such as this ECR 110.
Interior of this ECR Defender 110 Tdi now almost complete. Notice the custom center switch panels, ARB locker switches, and more.
The ECR Defender 110s don't scrimp on anything. We use the full interior trim packages to make your 110 as nice as possible. In this image you can see the factory sunroof and new headliners and trim installed on this ECR 110.

Tons of power and over 25 mpg! What could be better! How abut the ability to go in deep water and survive long term without sensors or computers! The 300 Tdi is the ultimate choice for expedition work.
We also installed the African specification side sliding windows in this 110 so that it can have the 3 door configuration, but still have lots of ventilation inside. This images shows the nearly complete ECR Tdi 110 with side windows in place.
A few other options finish off this ECR 110 for its intended expedition use. The rear mud flaps keep rocks off the vehicle behind you and the twin work lights, roof rack, custom ECR access ladder and rear bumperettes finish off the package nicely.
This ECR 110 came back shortly after it was delivered for a raised air intake system for the 300 Tdi. Not a problem, as long as you are ECR. We stock all the 300 Tdi parts and accessories in house. No one else in the country has our dedicated 300 Tdi program, and we've been doing it for years. This ECR 300 Tdi 110 was delivered in early 1999, before anyone else had even started on conversion kits or Tdi installs.
