Land Rover’s new Defenders were launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2019 and made in the company’s plant in Slovakia, although the vehicle has been designed by Jaguar Land Rover’s UK designer, Gerry McGovern. The new Defender was engineered to comply with global car regulations and the car shares no component or technology with previous Defender models. It features permanent all-wheel drive, locking differentials and a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission. The new models also have an aluminium unibody instead of a body-on-frame construction.
The New Defender 90 is a three-door, short wheelbase model which in real life comes with a slightly lower specification than some of the others in the New Defender category. However, it still has plenty of OOPH with a maximum speed of 109 mph, acceleration of 0-60 in 9.6 seconds with the initial choice of a 196 bhp 2.0 litre 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine with a fuel consumption of 32.2 mpg. A petrol hybrid engine is also an option.
The New Defender 90 makes its third Oxford entrance in Godwana Stone, one of the authentic colour schemes of the real life-series. It is registered 143 UYP and against the dark gold bodywork and black roof, the exterior trim is almost all black apart from the rear number plate housing, the wheels and the lower front grille section. The interior is also black. With a price tag of around £40,000 you can expect certain luxuries to come as standard -LED headlights, heated seats and heated steering wheel for starters. Very nice.

Oxford Diecast New Defender 90 Godwana Stone is a 1:64 scale die‑cast model of Land Rover’s current‑era Defender 90. The model carries the manufacturer part number 76ND90003 and represents the vehicle as it is produced today.
The real‑world Defender 90 was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2019 and is built in Land Rover’s plant in Slovakia. It features permanent all‑wheel drive, locking differentials, a ZF 8‑speed automatic gearbox and an aluminium unibody structure, differing from earlier Defender generations. The standard powertrain is a 2.0‑litre four‑cylinder turbo‑diesel delivering 196 bhp, with a top speed of 109 mph and 0‑60 mph acceleration in 9.6 seconds; a petrol‑hybrid option is also available.
The die‑cast version depicts the “Godwana Stone” colour scheme – a dark gold body with black roof, black exterior trim, black interior, black wheels and a black lower front grille, with the rear number‑plate housing the only contrasting detail. The model is marked as registration 143 UYP and, priced at approximately £40,000 for the full‑size vehicle, includes standard luxuries such as LED headlights, heated seats and a heated steering wheel.
