The record

The Land Doughver is a West Sussex wood-fired pizza business run by a team of chefs from near Chichester. Their Defender 110 hard top, Chi-Chi, was converted to carry a stone pizza oven weighing close to a tonne inside the rear body, its arched mouth opening through a black panel on the left side of the hard top so that pizzas are stretched by hand, fired and served at the vehicle's side under pull-out awnings. The oven burns kiln-dried ash at around 450 °C and cooks two or three pizzas in ninety seconds. The white Defender wears The LAND DOUGHVER lettering on the black panels, a pizza logo on the front doors and the email and web address on the rear doors, with roof rails and white steel wheels.

The registry's model is a white Defender 110 hard top with the black side panels, oven mouth, lettering, pizza logo, contact lines and roof rails; as directed the awnings are not modelled.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
