Weekly videos from the workshop near Wrexham. Hosted by Dave, shot by Ben and Chris from Eastwood Media (www.eastwood-media.co.uk).
We design, build, and fabricate custom 4x4 offroad vehicles in our workshop in Shropshire, UK. We take tired old Land Rover Defenders and turn them into exciting v8 500hp+ machines using BMW M57 and Chevrolet LS3 engines. Our team of skilled craftsman work on the bodywork, engines, interior, exhausts, and glazing to sculpt out the most incredible custom build vehicles.

🚨 Introducing Project Stirling! 🚨
Meet Stirling, our ex-military Wolf Defender 110, named by you – our Instagram followers! 🏆 Inspired by David Stirling, founder of the SAS, this battle-scarred beast is about to get a complete Mahker transformation.
In today’s workshop update, we strip it down to the chassis, ready for a full rebuild into the ultimate expedition Defender. Plus, we check in on some other insane builds, including:
🔧 Project “Move Over” – A 730+ BHP Chevy LT4-powered Defender 😈
🔧 Project Cagney – Getting remapped with Alive Tuning
🔧 Dubai Defender – Upgraded with MAER heavy-duty axles, AP Racing brakes & 2.65” Pre-Runner shocks
🔧 Little Hilda – Custom fabrication to work around its extra alternator
🔧 A customer’s Defender 110 – Getting fixed after stripping its crown wheel bolts
What do you think of the name Stirling? Let us know in the comments! 👇

🚨 NEW VIDEO ALERT! 🚨
Richard Hammond invited us to join his epic Defender drive-out, and we couldn’t say no! 😎 Starting with a few laps around Ross-on-Wye, we hit the trails for some proper off-road action, showing off what our LS3 V8-powered Defender can really do. 💥
The day wrapped up at Hammond’s very own workshop, The Smallest Cog, where we were greeted by hundreds of fans and got an exclusive peek behind the scenes. 🛠️
This is one you don’t want to miss! Check out the full video to see some legendary Land Rovers, meet Richard Hammond himself, and get inspired for your next build. 🏞️

Thank you all so much. We’ve grown the channel completely organically over three years. Watch time just topped 10k hours a month with over 150,000 views last month.
Not bad for a Land Rover workshop in Whitchurch and a two person video production team from Wrexham (Eastwood Media)
Here’s to another fab year doing more fun stuff … did someone say drag race??
Cheers, Chris Ben Dave and the Mahker team
