It’s often the case that movie villains have the coolest cars. That was certainly the case in 2015 Bond film “Spectre.” When chasing Bond off the mountain the Spectre heavies used some very tough looking, very highly specified Land Rover Defender 110’s to stalk their prey. This led to a high demand for evocations of the Spectre Land Rovers and also roughly coincided with the retirement of the original Defender, only adding to the furore. ‘151D 54244’ is not only one such thrilling evocation but was also previously owned by Irish MMA icon, Connor McGregor. Given this astounding provenance it will be no surprise that ‘151D 54244’ is a very highly specified Land Rover indeed, but more of that shortly. The Land Rover is a UK supplied and specified crew cab, pick up version of the Defender 110 that was bought new in the UK by McGregor. ‘151D 54244’ was then exported to Ireland and remained in McGregor’s ownership for 3 years. The vendor has not re-registered it in the UK for fear of losing the V5 with McGregor’s name on it. This custom, one-of-one Land Rover is now a two owner vehicle having covered around 69,000 miles and having never been used off road. It has been regularly maintained with its last service at the end of 2024, less than 400 miles ago. ‘151D 54244’ is offered with two keys, the original book pack and a provenance that’s hard to better.

Not one for the shy and retiring, ‘151D 54244’ is an absolute feast for the eyes and demands attention like few other Land Rovers….or vehicles of any type. There is so much thrilling detail here that it is hard to know where to start. ‘151D 54244’ presents in “Bond Villian” Black and features a full external, tubular roll cage. A set of 8J x 16-inch Storm alloy wheels are fitted and also finished in black. These are shod with a set of Cooper Discovery tyres in a 315/75 configuration. An identical spare wheel and tyre is mounted in the rear bed. Extra wide Spectre wheel arch extensions are fitted together with a front mounted Bearmach Power Winch housed withing a winch bumper. A KBX front light arrangement is present as is a snorkel, a Puma bonnet and new protective chequer plate to the wing tops. Even the unique Spectre rope arrangement from the film is noted. A movie faithful roof tray is fitted as are four, cage mounted, 7-inch LED spot lamps which are wired in to factory switches. Full length side steps are fitted as is a NAS rear step with integrated tow pack.

The interior specification is no less spectacular, either. A full Recaro style interior is fitted and trimmed in leather……black, of course. A Momo steering wheel is fitted, together with a central cubby box, black headlining, front electric windows, central locking, immobiliser, Pioneer double-DIN Bluetooth head unit and alarm. An invertor and three, three pin power outlets are even fitted in the rear bed.

A full SuperGaz suspension is fitted, incorporating a 2-inch lift, a steering damper and a full poly-bush set. The running gear is standard 2015 Defender fare in the shape of the 2,198cc ZSD-422 Duratorq turbodiesel engine and six-speed manual transmission. The usual Defender off-road focussed full time four wheel drive and high / low transfer gearbox are all present, of course. In news that will shock no one – every aspect of ‘151D 54244’ is rated as “excellent.”
