After introducing a limited edition Defender V8 Bond Edition last year, inspired by the model from the movie “No Time to Die”, Land Rover has now paid tribute to the film about the famous British secret agent 007. It is the Defender Rally Special which celebrates 60 years since the first James Bond film, “Dr. No.”

The car is inspired by the Defender 90 model that British rally driver Mark Higgins will drive in this year’s rally-raid championship. Defender Rally Special is painted black with the number “60” on the door and roof. Adapted for rally-raid championship, the car is equipped with improved suspension, improved engine and transmission cooling, a new exhaust system, a safety cage, and is mounted on reinforced 18-inch wheels wrapped in 255 / 70VR18 tires.

The British company Land Rover has announced the arrival of the new 2023 Range Rover Sport, which will be built on the MLA-Flex modular platform.
