Unnecessary? Yes. Do I Want it? Yes.

The Defedner V8 110 is hideously overpriced but this car takes it to another level. Let us leave that behind for now though and look at how cool this beast of a car is. 635 horsepower coarsing through a 4.4 litre V8, matte grey paintwork and special rugged wheels and tires. All this makes it look straight out of a Fast and Furious movie.

Performance

As mentioned earlier this car has a 635 horsepower 4.4 litre V8 that has been ripped straight out of the Range Rover SV which drives a 8 speed automatic gearbox with high and low range modes that certifies this car as a proper offroader obviously unlike the Range Rover SV which is tuned for the road.

Aesthetics:

Especially with it in its full fancy gear the Octa looks incredible. Extra front end protection to slide over rocks and not leave the undercarriadge on top of a rock, very very chunky and robust looking tires, offroad wheels (no risk of curbing these), double snorkel (because one is not enough). From the front then, this looks like a proper offroader ready to tackle any obstale thrown its way.

The rear end follows the excact same trend with massive chunky tires, special less vulnerable exhaust tips which personally I think look way better than standard, double tow hooks if this beast can somehow get stuck, increased ground clearence by 29 mm and finally an extremely good looking satin green paint.

Price:

Now, the fun part. North of £90,000 is mental but thats just the V8 110, no this car will set you back £145,300 for the base edition and for edtion one you better scrape together £160,800 for it. Now this car is absolutely brillaint, would go perfectly with a 911 Dakar but like that car it is simply too much money, I really cannot see there being much demand for a car like this let alone with the price tag that comes attached.

So, what do I think of this car then? Well I think like the 110 V8 it is a very cool car that will be remebered as an average car made great by wacking a V8 in it, but where the price for the V8 is silly this is just stupid. Charging £140,000-£160,000+ for a Defender with an offroad kit on it is just mental. I think it is a great shame because this to me is like the Defedner Spectre edition which was in my opinion was one of the coolest Land Rovers ever made.
