The Land Rover Defender is one of the most legendary automotive shapes in history. It began as a post-war agricultural utility vehicle in 1948 and has undergone six different generations of development, evolving from simple leaf-sprung equipment to a worldwide luxury-adventure SUV with supercharged V8 and hybrid powertrains. It is a car that transcends class or wealth, being driven by people of all backgrounds and all professions. It is just as likely to be seen parked outside a cattle market as it is a trendy café, and there are not many cars you can say that about.
