Old body, new heart

-

Aone-off Land Rover Defender made a dramatic entrance at Selfridges in London, entering the famous department store through a first-floor window. The Selfridges Edition vehicle began life as a 2016 Defender 110 Pick Up but the Land Rover Classic team have turned it into a 110 Soft Top, complete with a branded hood in trademark Selfridges yellow. The bodywork is finished in contrastin­g Bronze Green and a heritage style folding windscreen and half-height doors complete the open-air look. It features a 405bhp V8 that produces 515Nm of torque, an eight-speed ZF automatic transmissi­on plus updated brakes and suspension. The limited-run Works V8 derivative­s are the fastest and most powerful Defender models ever produced. The finished vehicle will make its global debut by the end of October.
