Ever wonder what type of vehicle the UK Military uses on a regular basis to transport troops through rough terrain?

Two models exist, one based on the Land Rover Defender 90 and a longer version based on the Defender 110.
The military needed a flexible vehicle that could take the abuse that various military units could throw at it. Of all the modifications that the military has ordered, one of the most unique is the waterproofing treatment that it receives. Using a snorkel, the Landrover Wolf can wade through water all the way up to the windows. All electrical components have been protected and the vehicle is often used by the Marines when doing amphibious assaults and weapons are often mounted to the roof of the Wolf.

Unfortunately these models were never used for the trip as it was cancelled and the vehicles were auctioned off.
