FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS THE STARTING PRICE FOR A MIYO DEFENDER?
The starting price varies based on the level of customization and options you choose. Contact us for a detailed quote tailored to your specific needs.
DO YOU RESTORE THE ORIGINAL DEFENDER OR BUILD A NEW ONE FROM SCRATCH?
We start with an original V8 Defender and restore it to its former glory before customizing it to your specifications. This approach preserves the vehicle’s heritage while allowing for modern enhancements.
DO YOU TRANSPORT INTERNATIONALLY?
Yes, we offer global shipping options to deliver your custom Defender anywhere in the world. We handle all logistics to ensure a smooth and safe delivery.
DO YOU ONLY USE V8 ENGINES?
Yes, at MIYO, we specialize exclusively in V8 Defenders. We’ve chosen to focus on V8 engines because they add a rare and exclusive character to our vehicles. These engines were originally delivered in a few select countries, making them even more exotic compared to the more common diesel versions. We do not convert diesel engines to V8s, all of our V8 Defenders are authentic and originally delivered. This ensures that with a MIYO V8 Defender, you own a truly unique vehicle.
