Now that production of the Defender is coming to an end after 67 years, Land Rover has produced three run-out models: the absurdly priced, £61,845 Autobiography, with two-tone paint, leather upholstery and lots of extraneous equipment; the £27,800 Heritage, painted in Grassmere Green with a white roof to recall one of the most famous prototypes; and the £43,495 Adventure tested here, with aggressively treaded Goodyears, a roof-rack and an engine-breathing snorkel.
