Buh-Bye Land Rover Defender

The Defender is on it’s way out and these are some pictures from the factory before all is shut down. I still want one:

A Last Look At The Land Rover Defender Production Line

the Defender will be the last of a model line that traces all the way back to the Series 1 Land Rover that was first unveiled in 1948.

This series of images shows the Defender production line in its last few months of operation, it’s interesting to note the amount of hand work that goes into building the model when you consider the level of robotic automation used on most production lines.

Pretty neat pictures. These things are so cool.

Any nudeZ for photo #13 ?

2 door Defenders are so fucking awesome.

These things are so badass.

Oh damn I want one.

This is on my list of vehicles I love and should have purchased when they were cheap-er. Ugh.

This is just wrong. No Defenders. So much for the French foreign legion.

I had no idea they still made them

they’re coming out with a new one, no idea how hardcore it will be.

If it’s anything like what the American SUV’s have become it will probably be car-based and FWD :uhh:

they have the evoque to fill that segment… I think it would have to be at least as good as the current jeep wrangler offroad.

I hope so! It’s getting harder and harder to get a truck with a closed back that’s actually a truck.

just import a G wagon

could always do one of these:

What happens when you take a Raptor frame/motor and combine it with a Bronco body? Epic awesomeness happens!





Ronco or Braptor. It could go either way.

i like it not sure why its in this thread. also needs wide body.
