As a strong partner to numerous aid organizations and military operations and, above all, as an expedition vehicle for anyone who desires to get off the beaten track, the Defender has become a living legend. And like any good adventurer, it continues to evolve.
In 1955, six English students headed out of Oxford in two brand-new Land Rovers on their first extensive cross-country journey.
They traveled across Europe and the Middle East, conquering mountainous regions and jungle expanses. After six months and a total of 18,000 miles, they reached their journey’s destination—Singapore.
Afterward, not only the students but also the vehicles were experience rich.
