CELEBRATE DEFENDER
SIX LAND ROVERS DRAW A 1KM SILHOUETTE OF DEFENDER IN THE SANDS OF RED WHARF BAY, UK
The year is 1947. A man sketches the silhouette of a car in the sand of a Welsh beach. That car is the Land Rover. Tough, intrepid, it goes on to change history, mastering all manner of terrain and capturing hearts around the world.
Decades of innovation have taken us Above and Beyond. We’ve navigated uncharted territory with a firm grasp of where we started – the unique marriage of capability and composure, which distinguishes every vehicle bearing the Land Rover badge.

OUR ADVENTURES
Our record-breaking expeditions demonstrate that if you’re driving into the unknown, only a Land Rover will do.
