This Lego Defender 90 Is the Cheapest Way to Get a Vintage Land Rover

The current Land Rover Defender is nicely designed, comfortable, incredibly capable off-road and can be ordered with a 518-hp V8. And yet, it just doesn’t have the same charm as the Defender it replaced. There’s just something special about the classic design. But if you can’t justify buying a bare-bones off-roader with questionable-at-best reliability, maybe this Lego Land Rover Defender 90 set will be more your speed.

In case you missed it:

• Check Out the 1,025-HP Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170

• Acura Integra Type S Makes 320 HP and Comes Exclusively With a Six-Speed Manual

• Your Favorite Automotive Videos of All Time

To be clear, though, this set isn’t going to be cheap. It costs $239.99, which isn’t exactly Lego Millennium Falcon money, but it’s also not something you’ll probably pick up for your kid’s classmate’s birthday party. Unless you just happen to be that kind of generous. In that case, hell yeah, and thank you for spreading the Lego love.
