Land Rover Defender 110 SVX Special Edition Coming To Australia

 

 

21st April, 2008

Land Rover Defender 110 SVX Special Edition

Land Rover is marking its 60th anniversary with the special edition Defender SVX model, which goes on sale in Australia in the second half of 2008. The iconic Defender still bears a strong visual resemblance to its 1948 predecessor, but inside the SVX model boasts an array of modern comforts and features, such as satellite navigation, Recaro seats and iPod compatibility.

While most of the 25,000 Defenders produced each year are working tools for everyone from farmers to aid agencies, the 60th anniversary SVX special edition model is the most stylish and feature-packed versions that Land Rover has ever produced.

With metallic black paintwork, the Defender SVX will be available as a seven-seat 110 station wagon. Each model will come fitted with an individually numbered plaque. New exterior features include a restyled grille surround, tubular side-steps, unique alloy wheels, reinforced aluminium front undershield, clear-lens headlamps and LED reverse/rear fog lights.

Continuing the distinctive look, the interior of the SVX is equipped with custom-designed Recaro front seats, machined alloy gear knobs, a new audio system (with subwoofer and USB socket), iPod compatibility and Garmin satellite navigation.

A total of 1,800 Defender 110 SVXs will be produced worldwide, with a limited quantity making it to Australian shores. Pricing for the Defender 110 SVX is $62,990 (RRP).

About Land Rover

Since 1948 Land Rover has been manufacturing authentic 4x4s that represent true 'breadth of capability' across the model range. Defender, Freelander 2, Discovery 3, Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Vogue each define the world's 4x4 sectors. With record sales globally and strong growth locally, Land Rover is going from strength to strength repositioned as a premium niche brand through a product led transformation.

After setting its best January result on record, Land Rover Australia closed the first quarter 81.7% up on last years' retail sales.

Land Rover, together with Jaguar, will be purchased from Ford by Tata Motors in the near future.
