Land Rover Special vehicles has made available the longest Defender yet. The Defender 147 can carry 13 passengers, but comes with a variety of options to suite a family, tour operators or safari operators.

This is truly a unique vehicle because the Defender 130 only comes in a crew cab form, which is quite different from the Defender 110 station wagon. The D147 is 37 inches or just under 1 metre longer than the D110. This allows for the extra door and seats to be fitted.

Two diesel engine options are offered, the Tdi as well as the newer TD5. To the best of our knowledge this vehicle is available only in South Africa, and comes with the standard 3 year warranty.

Land Rover launches new high capacity Defender Station Wagon

Land Rover's continuous programme of innovation and development has resulted in an exciting new Defender model aimed at the exclusive game lodge and safari market.

The Defender 147 High Capacity Station Wagon, as revealed exclusively by
Wheels24 in April (see related article above for story and pictures), offers
unrivalled roominess with a seating configuration that can accommodate up to
11 people.

In conjunction with Engineers from Land Rover UK, a prototype Defender 147
has been undergoing a series of "torture tests" that simulate a 10 year life
cycle within the space of a few weeks, with the vehicle winning high praise
for its exceptional comfort, roominess and wide-ranging abilities.

Essentially the 147 is an ultra-long wheelbase version of the iconic
Defender 110, which boasts a heavy-duty suspension, two additional doors and up to 40% more legroom for the second and third row passengers.

Test engineers report that the legendary ride comfort of the Defender has
been further enhanced, with the off-road prowess of the 147 exceeding even
the most optimistic expectations.

It is believed that as well as appealing to the demanding game lodge and
safari market, it will find favour with discerning family buyers who aspire
to the luxury of even more stretch-out room and loadspace for extended Land
Rover adventures.

In keeping with Land Rover tradition the 147 badge indicates the length of
the wheelbase in inches, with the 5.3m long vehicle still fitting in a
standard garage if the spare wheel is stowed against the bulkhead in the
load area, rather than on the outside of the rear door. This vehicle carries
Land Rover's three year / 100 000 km warranty with full parts back-up.

The prototype Defender 147 began life on the normal assembly line at the
Land Rover SA plant in Rosslyn, near Pretoria, where a substantial amount of
the production was completed before it was transferred to the Special
Vehicle section for final assembly.

While the front and rear sections remain the same, it has grown 935mm in
total length and wheelbase. Special adaptations include an additional door
and C-pillar on each side, along with the adoption of heavy-duty suspension
components consisting of a 1 580kg-rated front axle, 2 200kg rear axle, and
co-axial helper springs. High capacity steel wheels are fitted. The units
will be powered by Land Rover's acclaimed high-efficiency and low emissions
Td5 turbo-diesel engine.

The first 10 vehicles have been built with deliveries due to commence at the
end of November. Retail pricing is estimated to be around the R360 000 mark,
including VAT
Pior é que nåo é coisa de americano desocupado!
O 147 vai ser oficialmente fabricado pela Land Rover, até acredito que tenha alguma utilidade aqui no Brasil, para turismo o negocio é o bixo!

Tem uns que acreditam até em Duendes... :D
Isso ai tem anos e certamente não foi para frente, mas pelo que lembro não tem nada a ver com a fabrica da Land, foi feita acho que na Africa do Sul.
