Revived for the 2020 model year, the all-new Land Rover Defender already has 164 manufacturer communications and nine complaints filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. As far as recalls are concerned, the unibody off-road luxobarge is called back over a powertrain control module that may unexpectedly switch off while driving the vehicle.

Take an innocent late model classic Land Rover Defender. Add everything you can think of. Then add more, much more. When you’ve finished, add Recaro seats custom-covered in alligator leather. And then a gear lever that first saw service in an Apache helicopter. That begins to tell the story of this most extraordinary of Defenders, ready to tackle any terrain you care to throw at it, with enough power to drop most sports cars at the traffic lights.

A unique Land Rover Defender is up for auction on Collecting Cars. The Land Rover Defender is none other than one of two genuine ex-Camel Trophy vehicles built by the Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations team for the 1998 Tierra Del Fuego Camel Trophy event.
