Twisted is a company with humble roots, formed in 2000 by Land Rover enthusiast Charles Fawcett from his garage in North Yorkshire. His passion – along with the Defender’s recent windfall in ‘coolness’ currency – has seen the company snowball, simultaneously earning a solid reputation with Defender stalwarts and newcomers alike. Three years ago, Twisted had a trio of staff members; today it has a workforce of 14, constantly expanding premises and a very happy Land Rover dealership nearby – Twisted is currently purchasing 80 brand-new Defenders per year in order to apply its own, well, ‘twist’ to each one. The Special Edition upgrades can also be made retrospectively, the company turning around some 10 customer-owned vehicles per month.
