Land Rover Launches Land Rover Defender Works V8 To Celebrate 70th Anniversary by AutoJoshNG: 12:11pm On Jan 17, 2018 |
Land Rover today announces a limited-edition high-performance version of the iconic Defender, with up to 150 V8-powered examples re-engineered to celebrate the Land Rover marque’s 70th anniversary in 2018. Defender Works V8 is the most powerful and fastest version that Land Rover has ever created. The 5.0-litre naturally-aspirated petrol V8 powertrain produces 400 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque (the standard Defender delivered 120 hp and 266 lb-ft). The Defender Works V8 will accelerate from 0-60mph in 5.6sec with a top speed of 171 km/hr. “It’s fitting that we’ve been able to release the full potential of the iconic Defender, whose much-loved shape remains synonymous with Land Rover, 70 years since it was seen in public for the first time. "The idea of reintroducing a V8 Defender was something we were discussing as far back as 2014, when we were still building the Defender in Solihull. We knew the demand was there for a powerful and fast Defender; the Land Rover authenticity is the ultimate finishing touch for discerning clients purchasing these collector’s edition Defenders.” Tim Hannig, Jaguar Land Rover Classic Director. The V8 powertrain will be fitted to 150 specially-selected and re-engineered Defenders for the 70th Edition, complemented by an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission with sport mode, uprated brakes and handling kit (springs, dampers and anti-roll bars). Full Windsor Leather interior trim covers the dashboard, door panels, headlining and Recaro sports seats. Land Rover Classic’s own Classic Infotainment System is also fitted. The starting price is £150,000 which will be about N100million after shipping and clearing at the Nigerian port. Would you buy yourself this classic design or you rather settle for the modern Range Rovers? https://autojosh.com/land-rover-defender-works-v8/ 2 Likes

Their modern cars though laden with cool features have low reliability ratios when compared to their cost and rivals. |
