The Appeal
Designed as a collaboration between the renowned Italian firearms house ‘Beretta’ and Centurion's coachbuilding expertise, just two of these bespoke Beretta Editions of the Defender 90 are understood to have been built. Finished in Land Rover’s iconic heritage colour of Keswick Green and trimmed throughout in Harris Tweed, this exclusive shooting wagon was conceived as the ultimate country companion, equally at home on a driven shoot as it is turning heads on a trip into town.
Complementing the Keswick Green paint, Beretta body graphics sit alongside colour-matched 16-inch ‘Boost’ alloy wheels, black chequer plates, Masai privacy glass, a full LED light conversion, and folding entry steps. Inside, the Harris Tweed treatment extends to the seating, door cards, dashboard trim, armrest, and comfort cushions, while Beretta's brass shotgun shell window winders and a wood-rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel with Beretta centre badge add a level of craftsmanship rarely seen in a Defender.
For practicality, the rear floor carpet lifts out to reveal a faux oak easy-clean surface for muddy boots, while the twin rear side-facing bench seats come with seatbelts and grab handles. A suspended shotgun slip and cartridge case are included as part of the build. This particular example has covered approximately 65,400 miles in the hands of just one former registered keeper. With its Centurion build plate confirming it as number 2 of 2, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a bespoke Defender with interesting character and provenance.

SellerI bought the car mid last year. I was told it was commissioned by a Licensed Beretta Agent in Europe for a prestigious shooting event along with another Defender . I don't know where the conversion was done. Evidently Centurion converted a number of Defenders with different themes.
