The 2015 land rover defender for sale has a reputation for being one of the toughest SUVs on the market. It’s the perfect vehicle to get you through a muddy field or a rough track, and it will also haul any trailer. But the Defender’s 67-year run will come to an end next year, so the British manufacturer is celebrating its legacy with a trio of special-edition models for sale.
Why is the Defender so popular?
There’s never been a better time to buy the classic Defender. Not only are the newest versions vastly improved, but this is a final opportunity to own the venerable 4×4. The company has also created a trio of special-edition models that should appeal to all types of Defender fans.
Land Rover’s Heritage and Adventure models pay homage to the Defender’s go-anywhere spirit, while the Autobiography combines luxury with striking looks. The latter is the rarest of the three, as only 100 will be built and it’s only available in the short-wheelbase 90 Station Wagon bodystyle.
It’s not exactly the most comfortable SUV on the road, but the Defender’s rugged build and sheer off-road capabilities make it worth every cent. It’s also surprisingly well-mannered on the tarmac, thanks to its light steering and responsive brakes.
Safety is the Defender’s top priority, so it comes with technologies like Emergency Braking and Lane Keep Assist to help prevent front-end collisions. And available Adaptive Cruise Control and Traffic Sign Recognition help you stay on course while driving in high-traffic areas.
