Fire and Ice Land Rovers...too hot, too cool

Tata taking over Land Rover was not the best thing to have happened as far as the Brits are concerned. The argument which iss against Tata is simple. A truck maker will never appreciate and understand the heritage and brand name associated with Land Rover. So wrong you are, Brits. Take a look at the new Fire and Ice editions of the workhorse in LR stable, the Defender and prepare to take your words back.

The rest of the bare-basic SUVs have taken the luxury root, even the G-wagon. So how can the Defender stay behind? So in addition to the rugged standard Defender, LR has for its customers two special editions. The shell remains the same, retaining its 1948 design. The semi-dolled-up look owes to the colour coded head and tail lights, recaro seats, leather upholstery, new 5-spoke alloys and sunroof which lets the sun and nature in.

Fire edition comes in a Vesuvius Orange metallic, which of course is very much loyal to the machine's name. Ice edition, obviously comes in Alaska White. Both have been given a dual tone paint job with black finish on the hood and the roof.

They aren't cheap. Nor are they available for all. The tag says $95,000. 850 lucky and super rich Land Rover lovers will get to drive off in one of these.
