Title: Is it wrong to want one of these?
Post by: andrewparker on January 21, 2013, 08:23:12 pm
OK, I'm normally horrified by anything by Kahn, but I bloody love this creation.

We work closely with the photographer who does all the Twisted shoots, so I've had a good look around a few of their conversions, including his own, but this betters them all IMO. Look at them back seats!

I would rather roast my nut sack with an Oxycetylene welding torch than drive anything with KAHN on it.

I would prefer the Twisted Defender

But tbh there's other 4x4's I'd have over a defender

My guilty 4x4 pleasure is the AMG G Wagen, more facelifts than Joan Rivers but keeps on going

Yeah, I love the G-Wagen too. Think the most up-to-date one looks pretty rank though.
Title: Re: Is it wrong to want one of these?
Post by: tony_danza on January 21, 2013, 09:46:17 pm
I love G Wagens, but I'd want an early one in some sh*t horrible colour like hearing aid beige. None of that AMG/Brabus tat.

Does it come with a sick bag as standard? Is it the Beyonce/Jay-Z special?? WTF were they thinking (or smoking)

^^^^
I used to know a girl in Chelsea who had a G-Wagen - Daughter of a private banking family (I won't drop the name). Very cool lady - She could roll a joint with one hand while driving! I drove it a couple of times - Massive! It wasn't bling'd up like that though.

Just seen your post, Mike - Hers was a sandy beige colour. This was in the early 80's (I think!).

Word on 'da street' is that Kahn is just an outfit for laundering drug money?  :confused:
Title: Re: Is it wrong to want one of these?

^^^^ I hope they launder money better than they pimp cars, if not, they're fu*ked!

....That's similar to what I heard too, albeit a few years ago.

It might be that the word got twisted in the re-telling and it started off as that Kahn made cars look as if they belonged to drug dealers.

Drive past the showroom quite often, some of there conversions are not great quality as you can still make out the original car colour before there make over.

The rumours you heard, were very well heard when they used to be at the old site in cheapside, in town, but have continued now.

I notice Twisted now sell all the aftermarket kit for their conversions, so you could buy a cheap Defender and mod it.

Having worked on a lot of kahn conversion landys i wouldnt go near them the workmanship is shocking tbh the bodykits are made of the thinnest cheapest materials ive seen and the interiors arent done well either so manu range rover sports with the seats pretty much unstitching themselves its unreal

Just been looking at the Twisted Performance Defenders on their new vehicles list. Omg. Definitely one of my lottery win cars!!!!

I'd have to get one of those G Wagons over any others mentioned in this thread.

The G Wagen is soon going to be out-phasing the Landy's that the Army currently use do surely if can't be that bad but I do think they do look very outdated even with all the facelifts lol
