We’re excited to announce the launch of our Brookwell Land Rover Project X - we’re going to be kitting out a Defender 90 with all the best parts from our suppliers to create the ultimate Brookwell mascot vehicle!

We need your help though, to come up with a name for our vehicle. Make a suggestion by March 20th and you could win a £50 Brookwells voucher.

You can view more details and suggest a name on the project page or you can become a fan on our Facebook page and post your suggestion to our Facebook wall. We’ll be updating both the project page and our Facebook page as the project progresses, so you’ll be able to keep track of the vehicle as it develops.

Land Rover’s Freelander 2 is now available for less than £20,000, with the launch of its ‘White & Black’ special editions.

On sale in January 2010, and priced from £19,945, the entry-level models might be cheaper, but they don’t scrimp on equipment. A keyless starter button, 17-inch alloy wheels, privacy glass and a load space cover all come as standard.

It has been described as a bold evolution of the traditional Land Rover design. It is stylish, very desirable, but crucially is the smallest and potentially the greenest car that Land Rover has ever made.

The LRX “concept car”, designed at the company’s HQ in Gaydon, Warwickshire, will get its world debut next month at the Detroit Motor Show.

It is a small and sporty three-door vehicle, which the company says shows “a vision of its future”, and is being unveiled just two years after the launch of the highly successful Range Rover Sport.

The Range Rover’s had a heart transplant. A twin-turbo V8 diesel now murmurs quietly away under the bonnet. Nick Fone takes it for a spin

The Range Rover is a vehicle of contractions. It’s big, bulky and angular but somehow poised and elegant at the same time.At 2.7t, the diesel’s heavy but, in its latest guise, incredibly quick.

And that’s thanks to its new twin-turbo V8 power-plant.

Developed at Ford’s Dagenham plant specifically for the Range Rover and its ‘Sporty’ cousin, the new 3.6-litre engine pumps out 272bhp – making it 54% more powerful than the BMW-built 3-litre straight-six used previously.

Everyone has enemies. Not everyone has enemies with grenades, assault rifles, and the willingness to use them. If you are one of these lucky individuals, however, you’ll be glad to know about the Range Rover Vogue Security Vehicle.

The four levels of security available correspond to four ways of killing you: handgun, assault rifle, high velocity rifle, and “ultimate.” You’d think that last category would involve tactical thermonuclear weapons, or at least an envelope full of anthrax. But no:

The Land Rover Defender was officially re-launched yesterday. This means more changes for the 59 year history of Defender.

The basic defender hasn’t really changed all that much. It still comes in a choice of three wheelbase lengths and 14 separate body styles.
.
Prices have increased since that last release of the Defender – prices have increased by around £400 and prices range between £18,645 to £26,605

It is thought that 80% of Defenders ever made are still in use today.

Land Rover have recently released a few details about the new LR2 which is set to replace the Freelander in 2008.

Land Rover have said that ‘they aimed to produce a 4 x 4 with a carlike ride but with off-road ability’ and that is certainly something they have worked on. There is 8 inches of clearance room under the 4 x 4 and it will also have the terrain response system which will optimize the engine, transmission, traction and suspension depending on the terrain.

It will have 230 horsepower and a Volvo developed engine which can go from 0-60 in 8.4 seconds. It will also do 25 miles per gallon.

More information on improvement of the new 2007 Land Rover Defender:

- It will go on sale later in the year with several improvements including aluminum bodywork.

- They will have new Ford engines, more comfortable seats and an improved air conditioning and heating system.

- There will also be the option to have a extra third row of seats in the back of the Defender.

- There will be a new six-gear gearbox

- Improved appearance for the inside facia

300 Pursuits will be available in March at just under £30,000 with TDV6 engines and technology including Hill Descent Control, air suspension and Terrain Response with space for up to seven adults. Kit includes Java Black paint work with Ebony interior, 19” alloy wheels, body-coloured wheel arch surrounds, manual leather seats and chrome finish mirror caps.

“Since launch, the Discovery 3 has brought new levels of ability, comfort and refinement to the large 4×4 market. Winning 95 awards worldwide is a testament to its class-leading diesel engine, its versatility and its all-round package,” commented John Edwards, Land Rover UK managing director.

Customer demand for the Defender, today, saw a substantially revised new model for 2007 roll off the production line at Solihull (United Kingdom). Land Rover employees were present to celebrate this important milestone which marks the continued success of the iconic model which began life in 1948. The new model goes on sale this spring and will feature significant upgrades to enhance the ownership experience and meet forthcoming legislation.
