LandRover DC 100 & DC 100 Sport

The legend has been redesigned, and pretty well, we must say. The DC100 and the DC100 Sport are meant as revivals of the now aging Defender line-up. The Defenders have been around since 1948 and are now synonymous with go-anywhere, do-anything vehicles. One of the first true-blooded off-roaders, the Defender has received numerous technical as well as design upgrades over its lifetime. But none as substantial as this. The interesting touches here include the unlikely forward leaning stance (unlikely for LR that is), the DRG and most notably the door shutlines with mirrored door handles and airvents on either side. Besides this sits the DC100 Sport which is the DC100 in a more fun-loving, speedster garb.
