1 of 150 limited WORKS V8
For LAND ROVER's 70th anniversary, Project WORKS V8 was developed in 2017. Based on the last built and registered LAND ROVER DEFENDER, CLASSIC WORKS UK has carefully dismantled each of the 150 worldwide limited edition vehicles and created a 5.0 litre. V8 petrol engine with 403 hp from the current RANGE ROVER implanted in combination with the 8-speed automatic transmission from ZF.
The brakes, chassis and 18-inch LM wheels in Saw Tooth design are adapted to the performance.
The equipment includes air conditioning, ABS with ETC, central locking, electric windows, heated front seats, aluminum door handles.
The bodies could be ordered in one of 5 selectable colours with a black contrasting roof and the interior was transformed into a very high-quality leather interior with Recaro sports seats and the Jaguar Land Rover Classic audio system with Bluetooth and navigation was installed.
At the buyer's request, this WORKS V8 was painted in the unique special colour Balmoral Green and the interior was designed in Bottle Green for an additional charge of GBP 21,000. No other WORKS V8 has this colour combination ex works and makes this example even more desirable. The result is an automotive gem.
The limited number of 150 vehicles was sold out within a very short time after it was announced.
Each of the left-hand drive WORKS V8s sold for the European continent passed through our hands as a subsidiary of JLR UK and was checked again, test driven and, with the help of the TÜV, equipped with new German vehicle documents and a daily registration after a full inspection.
