MENACE DEFENDER

BUILDING A LIFESTYLE

We’re bringing custom, modified Defenders to the Canadian market.

At Menace Defender, we combine classic, iconic designs with modern accents, creating vehicles that honour tradition while offering style and functionality for today's adventures.

WHY MENACE DEFENDER?

Canadian Owned

Buying a Menace Defender means buying from a Canadian company—so Canadian customers avoid costly import tariffs, currency exchange fluctuations, and cross-border shipping fees. As a result, your investment is more straightforward, cost-effective, and better supported than purchasing from a U.S. seller.

Solid Investment

A classic Land Rover Defender is more than a vehicle—it’s an investment. Its timeless design, rugged charm, and growing collector demand have made it a sought-after classic, with well-preserved or restored models only appreciating in value.

OUR MISSION

VISION

We have curated Land Rover Defenders in Europe available for import to Canada. If a customer is interested, Menace Defender manages the entire process, ensuring the vehicle is safely and legally delivered, making it easy to own a European Defender hassle-free.

HERITAGE

We are committed to fostering trust between buyers and sellers, creating lasting relationships, and enhancing the Defender experience while preserving its heritage. With every vehicle we restore, every detail we perfect, and every customer we serve, we’re not just selling a car; we’re offering the promise of adventure, the thrill of the unknown, and the chance to be part of something timeless.

TRUST

Blake Schonemann created a trusted brand that Canadians can rely on for honest advice and exceptional craftsmanship. For Blake, driving a Land Rover Defender was never just about getting from point A to point B—it was about the thrill of the journey, the promise of adventure, and the allure of the unknown. He sought the road less traveled, the unexplored, the uncharted. This passion for discovery not only shaped his life but also fueled his vision for Menace Defender.

Blake Schonemann built a trusted Canadian brand known for honest advice and exceptional craftsmanship. For him, the Land Rover Defender was more than transportation—it symbolized adventure, discovery, and the thrill of the unknown. That same spirit drives his vision for Menace Defender.
