Oh yes, I'm the last Defender The end of a long, long line Now it's goodbye, our fans wonder why We've finally run out of time
The last Land Rover Defender rolled off the Solihull production line today. Inspired by the Willys Jeep and first manufactured in 1948, it has been a huge success . Now alas old fashioned manufacturing methods, pedestrian safety considerations and suchlike mean it's curtains for a much loved motoring icon.
