We can all agree that the Land Rover Defender is a very tough SUV, however it does lack in the luxury department with a very utilitarian looking/feeling interior. If you are looking for a bit of luxury, the Defender X-Tech Limited Edition comes to the rescue.
The X-Tech Defender comes with an upgraded interior which features leather seats and ebony surfaces. The center console has been upgraded to match the exterior paint, which the buyers have a choice of Zermatt Silver or Bronze. The roof, headlight assemblies, and the wheels arches are painted in contrasting Santorini Black. The Defender rides on a set of 16 inch Saw Tooth rims that are also painted gloss black.
The Land Rover Defender X-Tech is powered by a 2.4 liter turbo-diesel engine that produces 122 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque. The limited edition package is available on the Defender 90 (3-door) and Defender 110 (5-door) hardtop models and will go on sale in Great Britain in March 2011 for a starting price of £24,995.
