Land Rover's Camel Trophy tribute
Land Rover Classic is continuing the formidable expedition legacy of the original Defender with a limited production run of adventure-ready vehicles paying tribute to the iconic Camel Trophy 4x4s for an exclusive competition at Eastnor Castle later this year.
Based on the re-engineered 2012-2016 Defender Works V8 specification developed by Land Rover Classic, including 405hp 5.0-litre V8 petrol powertrain, eight-speed ZF automatic transmission and comprehensive uprated suspension, steering and braking packages, the Trophy vehicles feature a wide range of additional upgrades specifically tailored for off-road use.
Twenty-five examples of the Defender Works V8 Trophy will be exclusively finished in a unique Eastnor Yellow paint colour with matching 16-inch steel wheels. Contrasting Narvik Black paintwork features on the wheel arches, bonnet and rear door. The purpose-built vehicles also receive unique Land Rover Trophy badging and event participation graphics personalised to each customer.
The Defender Works V8 Trophy is designed to tackle the most demanding endurance challenges. Additional all-terrain kit includes a front winch, multi-point expedition cage, roof rack, underbody protection, A-bar, raised air intake, LED spotlights and mud-terrain tyres.
