What’s this? A Land Rover Defender? Well, sort of. It’s a Qt Services Wildcat 300STR. We’ll call it ‘Defender on Steroids.’
Powered by a 4 litre Rover V8, it’s capable of 0-60 in 5.8 seconds. That’s pretty fast, really. The 300STR is utterly at home off the road, with four wheel drive, heavy duty diffs, 5 point harnesses, and obviously four wheel drive. But don’t let that put you off, it’s got air-con and iPod connectivity for those odd days when you decide to use the tarmac to get to work, instead of opting for that old adage ‘ the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.’
Boss of Qt Services, Dave Marsh, said “If you consider that the 300STR is essentially a two-seater, there are a number of options open to you and this first production 300STR has been specified with rear storage for the new owner’s golf clubs. We’d love to be there when he rocks up to the clubhouse and parks it next to the Astons and Mercedes! Definitely a head-turner.”

One word;
Want!
Ahh but what would you spec instead of golf club storage? A gun rack? Stripper pole?
