Discover the Magic of Noire: The D110 Defender by Helderburg
Prepare to be captivated by the sheer brilliance of Noire, a custom-built Land Rover Defender D110 by Helderburg. This masterpiece combines vintage charm with modern sophistication, creating a vehicle that turns heads and sparks conversations wherever it goes. Whether you’re an automotive enthusiast or simply appreciate fine craftsmanship, Noire is an unforgettable experience.
A Magical Encounter
The journey of Noire began in Sharon Springs, New York, where its striking presence at a filling station drew the attention of three curious onlookers. Their reaction? Pure awe. As they admired its sleek design and unique features, one exclaimed, “Wow, that’s magical!” This sentiment perfectly encapsulates the essence of Noire—a vehicle that transcends expectations and leaves a lasting impression.
Unparalleled Design and Craftsmanship
Noire’s exterior is a testament to Helderburg’s meticulous attention to detail. Its Black Metallic paint boasts a stunning sheen reminiscent of a beluga whale, shifting between black and blue depending on the angle of sunlight. The stance is equally impressive, achieved without wheel spacers but through expertly selected wheels with a 45-degree offset. Every element, from the flush-mounted grill to the functional roll cage integrated into the frame, showcases Helderburg’s commitment to perfection.
Even the bumper design stands out. Instead of the typical NAS-style step-up bumper, Noire features sleek side steps for a cleaner look. The rear camera is seamlessly integrated into the license plate light, ensuring functionality without compromising aesthetics.
Performance That Thrills
Under the hood lies another layer of magic—a turbo diesel engine meticulously tuned for California compliance. With increased horsepower and torque, Noire delivers a driving experience akin to a modern SUV while maintaining its rugged roots. The custom-built Helderburg stainless steel performance exhaust system adds a bassy soundtrack to every drive.
The suspension system is equally remarkable. Featuring Fox shocks, Eibach springs, and precisely engineered radius arms and prop shafts, it ensures optimal performance whether cruising city streets or tackling off-road trails.
Luxurious Interior Features
Step inside Noire to discover an interior that blends vintage charm with contemporary luxury. The two-tone leather upholstery features diamond stitching for an elegant touch, while the headliner matches perfectly with the seat centers for cohesive design. Unique elements like a classic lumbar support system add personality and practicality.
The 11-inch touchscreen infotainment system provides modern convenience, complemented by billet aluminum accents throughout the cabin. From door handles to switches, every detail has been thoughtfully crafted for both style and durability.
A Symphony of Sound
Noire’s audio system is nothing short of extraordinary. Powered by a 1,200-watt amplifier, it includes dual eight-inch subwoofers housed in a custom enclosure beneath the center console. Focal coaxial speakers deliver crisp midtones and highs for an immersive listening experience—perfect for entertaining passengers during every adventure.
A True Masterpiece
Noire is more than just a vehicle; it’s a work of art designed to be admired and driven. From its flawless three-stage paint job to its handcrafted wood flooring with LED lighting accents, every aspect has been carefully curated to ensure it stands out as one of Helderburg’s finest creations.
