HISTORY
Twisted, founded in Yorkshire England in 2000 when it introduced its first landrover specific performance parts. The first entirely Twisted TD5 90 demo vehicle hit the road in 2003 and the creation of the first Twisted 110 occurred in 2004.
Customer customization began in 2005, with subsequent growth through custom client vehicles and strong parts sales. In 2009, Twisted produced a record number of vehicles, solidifying its association with the iconic Defender
R&D focus and a logo rebrand followed in 2010 with the introduction of four new vehicle specs. The first Twisted LS-powered V8 debuted in 2012, with further R&D investment continuing in 2013, focusing on audio, suspension, and braking development.
By 2016, Twisted owned the largest stockpile of “Last of Line” undriven Defender.
The North Yorkshire Showroom opened in 2020, London & Salcombe Marine Showroom in 2021, and in 2022, the R&D team developed the TV8 and TVS engines.
In 2023, a global brand deal and a Japan license agreement were signed, with the launch of the Twisted Suzuki TJ. In 2024, the brand aims to officially launch in Japan and the USA while focusing on resto-mod production for manufacturing status.

I grew up immersed in the world of Land Rover and 4×4s, testing their limits and understanding their flaws. When the opportunity arose, I transformed my passion into a vision for Twisted, aiming to elevate Defenders to unprecedented levels of prestige, quality, and mechanical excellence—creating a market where comfort, power, and heritage coexist.

THE OLD CINEMA
TWISTED HQ
Nestled in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, Twisted’s showroom is a unique blend of automotive excellence and rich history. Once a 1920s cinema, the venue now houses Twisted stock and a workshop in a space that seamlessly integrates past and present.

In 2020, Twisted revitalised the cinema screen, added a coffee bar, and transformed the venue into an 8000-square-foot haven. From its days as the Gaiety Theatre to a garage, the building has a diverse history that Twisted honours through meticulous restoration.

Uncovering handwritten messages from previous engineers’, and restoring the theatre screen, the premises embodies Twisted’s commitment to “Remake History.” Curated with apparel, boutique beauty products, and exceptional vehicles, it invites visitors to immerse themselves in the Twisted lifestyle. Come, enjoy a coffee, and let history and automotive passion converge in this extraordinary Thirsk space.
