2013 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS DCPU Keswick Green

Not every purchase comes with the entry to the event ~ 220 vehicles, only 90 places.

Odd note on the winch kit: "Available as a retailer installed optional accessory. Supply of vehicle winch is very limited and subject to availability."

I can't imagine purchasing one, and then finding out from the dealer that they can't get the winch?

Ans as "The overall winning team of the U.S. Trophy Competition will go on to compete at an extreme adventure competition at Eastnor Castle in the U.K., the spiritual home of Land Rover testing and development, to take place early 2022" does that mean other markets will get a similar model and feeder competition?

Needs a matte finish…but otherwise looks sweet.

Can anyone explain the difference between the Trek event/vehicles and this Trophy one?

Trek is a dealer competition whilst Trophy is for paying customers. Oh, and they're different colours. Darren

Does anyone else think that a dealer wrap is just a lazy way of selling cars at a mark up.

Kind of like seeing a coloured Defender for sale but they haven’t bothered to respray the inner doors or bonnet.

I understand that if the consumer wraps a vehicle for either paint protection or a colour change of their own choice because they know that they can remove it prior to part ex-ing back to the dealer, that’s the individuals choice. But for the dealer to do it and charge the extra at a premium it just feels a bit sad.

Maybe that’s just me…..

No, not just you. Just look at the approved used website for RRS’s, there are always a few there and often they are the base most models with few or no extras or very very high spec cars. Some of them look awful too. Farnells seem to be the main outlet for doing it. Must be something in the air in the Leeds area or they are doing it to compete with Kahn Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
