T e bespoke touches extend to the practical

At night, customers will also spot unique 007 puddle lamp graphics. Exclusively available to just 300 buyers around
the world, the Defender V8 Bond Edition’s interior features laser etching detailing that it is ‘one of 300’ and the SV Bespoke logo. T e UK will receive just 15 Bond V8 Edition vehicles; fi ve Defender 90 and 10 Defender 110 body styles. Each vehicle is commissioned by the vehicle personalisation experts at SV Bespoke in the UK. Finbar McFall, Land Rover Brand Director, said:
“T e Land Rover Defender V8 Bond Edition is an exclusive take on the most powerful production Defender ever made, inspired by vehicles on screen

in No Time To Die. It represents a meeting of two great British brands and is a unique celebration of Land Rover’s 38-year association with James Bond.” Defenders are at the heart of the action in No Time To Die alongside
two Range Rover Sport SVRs. A Range Rover Classic and Land Rover Series III are also in the fi lm. Based on the recently launched Defender V8, the Bond Edition
is powered by a 5.0-litre 525PS supercharged petrol engine, which produces 525PS, 625Nm of torque and drives through an eight-speed automatic transmission. T e Defender V8 90 accelerates from 0-60mph in just 4.9 seconds with a top speed of 149mph. It delivers new levels of performance and driver engagement
by combining the V8 with expertly developed suspension and transmission tuning to create the fastest and most dynamically rewarding Defender yet. No Time To Die is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga and stars Daniel
Craig, who returns for his fi fth and fi nal fi lm as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007. T e New Land Rover Defender V8 Bond Edition is £105,395 for the 90 and £108,040 for the 110.
