Ruggedly stylish new Land Rover released

Land Rover has just released their new Land Rover Defender XTech Special Edition. The 2.2-litre diesel engine with six-speed manual transmission under the hood has not changed, but cosmetically the new Defender is hardier for those looking for an even more rugged appeal. It will go on sale this month with a starting price of £27,995 and is available with the 90 Hard Top and 110 Utility Wagon body styles. Based on the Land Rover press release, here are a few highlights that make this Defender XTech stand out;

• Striking Nara Bronze body colour unique to Defender Special Edition


• Contrasting black roof & wheel arches with black chequer plate to bumper & sills


• 16-inch Gloss Black Saw Tooth alloy wheels with MTR off-road tyres


• Land Rover embossed front headrests


• Anti-Lock Brakes with Electronic Traction Control


• Heated seats and windscreen
