So today marks the end of Land Rover Defender production, 68 years after the first Series I was produced. There are emotional outpourings from all corners of motoring as fans bid farewell to a British motoring icon.
More news will follow from the production line soon but, to mark the occasion, it seemed appropriate to dedicate our weekly wallpaper slot to the legendary Land Rover.
There were a myriad of pictures to choose from but this image of a Heritage car was chosen for two reasons. The first being that it's our favourite of the recent Celebration Series cars, but also because the beach location provides a nice link back to the car's origins and Maurice Wilks' original sketch at Red Wharf Bay. Cheerio then Defender!
