Access Motors is proud to announce the launch of the LEGO Technic Land Rover Defender automotive icon, which was launched alongside the New Defender at the Frankfurt Motor Show recently. The 2,573-piece model combines the boundless creativity of LEGO with New Defender’s instantly recognisable silhouette and unrivalled capability. 

The LEGO Technic Land Rover Defender is available for viewing and preorder at the Access Motors showroom at No. 74, Flower Road, Colombo 7. Access Motors is the only dealership in the Asia-Pacific to be granted the privilege of launching the model. The launch, held by Access Motors in partnership with KTI Events at the Access Motors Showroom, was a fun-filled event attended by children, who had the opportunity to create their future LEGO models.

The LEGO Technic vehicle is a collector’s item and echoes the New Defender with a host of realistic elements and functions, including authentic body panels and rims, four-wheel drive with three differentials, fully independent suspension, a working winch and LEGO Technic’s most sophisticated gearbox yet – all designed to provide an engrossing and rewarding building experience for car lovers and LEGO fans alike. The LEGO Group’s mission is to inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow through the power of play. The LEGO System in Play, with its foundation in LEGO bricks, allows children and fans to build and rebuild anything they can imagine.

Celebrating the launch of the New Defender vehicle by being inspired by the durability and capability of New Defender, the Above and Beyond collection of men’s and women’s performance clothing and technical equipment was unveiled in a creative partnership between Land Rover and Musto, a world leader in performance clothing. 

The New Defender captures the very essence of the original and redefines it by going above and beyond. It is designed, engineered and built without compromise. It is visually compelling, with a go-anywhere-do anything attitude and toughness at its very core. Everything about the New Defender exudes quiet confidence - from its purposeful stance to its reductive, sophisticated surfaces, its integrity is beyond reproach. Tough, durable and highly functional, its interior bears testimony to the vehicle’s spirit of adventure. Structural elements are made of robust materials while intuitive technologies deliver a connected, engaged drive without taking anything away from the vehicle’s ambience.
