KISSIMMEE, Fla., June 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ECD Auto Design, the world’s largest Land Rover, and Jaguar restoration company known for its custom luxury builds, including bespoke Defenders, Range Rovers, E-Types and Mustangs, is proud to unveil its newest model, the Beach Runner 2. Coated in pink, the second vehicle from ECD’s new beach and coastal living line demonstrates once again that show stopping classic vehicles and bold design style can complement each other perfectly.

Based on a Land Rover Defender 110 platform, the Beach Runner 2 joins the ECD family as a bold and beautiful take on one of the company’s newest product lines released just in time for summer. Drawing inspiration from the endless coastal drives where the sun meets the sea, the Beach Runner 2 emerges as an icon of individuality and luxury. Its striking pink exterior is painted in a Porsche Frozen Berries gloss coat providing an unmistakenly stylish statement.

Inside, the Beach Runner 2 welcomes you, courtesy of power retractable side steps that effortlessly fold down as you approach. The seats, dash, and console are tastefully wrapped in pink parfait leather and are accented with just the right amount of pink plaid wool inserts to subtly tie the vehicle together in one cohesive design. The classic polished chrome accents, Momo Heritage Grand Prix steering wheel, vintage gauges and fold down windshield remind the driver that each mile driven is an escape back into yesteryear.

Already hailed as the "perfect beach vehicle," the Beach Runner is a harmonious blend of classic charm and modern convenience. Equipped with standard upgrades such as a versatile 21-in-1 accessories carrier, power retractable side steps, integrated air compressor, and detachable portable sound system, every journey becomes a seamless blend of utility and pleasure.

Picture-perfect scenes of pristine beaches and azure waters set the stage as the Beach Runner 2 gracefully glides along the coastline, turning heads with its impeccable design and commanding presence. It's not just a vehicle; it's a statement of unparalleled style and confidence.

But beauty is also found under the hood. The Beach Runner 2 boasts a formidable GM 455 HP 6.2L LT1 engine, ensuring a thrilling driving experience whether cruising along the beach or navigating the coastline with grace and precision.

This pink classic is a testament to bold imagination and refined taste, inviting you to embrace the spirit of adventure with every mile traveled. Crafted with precision and passion by the finest craftsmen and women in America, the Beach Runner 2 is more than a vehicle; it's a masterpiece waiting to be experienced.

This marks the second Beach Runner model as ECD ramps up to build inventory ready for immediate delivery.
