Pilakoutas Group recently organised a unique Defender Experience that combined gastronomy, heritage and off‑road adventure for enthusiasts. The day began at King of Olives in Anglisides village where guests enjoyed breakfast amid a distinctive natural setting. A guided tour revealed the production process of local products and the heritage behind them before participants took the wheel of the Defender for an authentic off‑road drive across the Cypriot countryside. The programme was designed to showcase the iconic model’s exceptional capabilities.
A specialist instructor from Land Rover’s headquarters travelled to Cyprus specifically for the event. He shared his expertise and appropriate driving techniques for different off‑road conditions as drivers tackled challenging routes. Through the experience participants discovered first‑hand the technology, agility and impressive capabilities of the Defender. The event went far beyond a simple test drive offering a complete and thrilling experience that highlighted the vehicle’s distinctive character and philosophy.
The day concluded with a special meal in an authentic traditional setting in Kato Drys. Guests had the opportunity to relax and share their impressions of the adventure. The Defender is built to go further tackling every route with confidence while combining exceptional capability, distinctive design and comfort. These qualities have established it as one of the world’s most recognisable and desirable vehicles.
Through the Defender Experience Pilakoutas Group continues to create distinctive experiences that bring people closer to the world and DNA of Defender. A world where adventure, authenticity and contemporary luxury naturally coexist.
