Make no mistake this stunner isn’t just easy on the eyes it can take on anything you throw at it regardless of the terrain, courtesy of the custom built roll bar and the trusty Old Man Emu suspension components.

Comfort has been given top priority even though it’s an off-roader, it comes with upgraded bucket seats at the front and rear bench seats, that can accommodate six adventurers. The interior is full of luxurious details, such as Italian leather upholstery, chubby and, floor mats that are custom-made.
