Land Rover Defender Fire PC (People Carrier)

I’ve really enjoyed seeing how other designers on ReBrickable and Instagram have reimagined the Land Rover Classic Defender (#40650), so I figured I’d give it a go myself—especially with a bit of time while stuck on a short flight.

This build is my take on a PC (People Carrier), inspired by the types of transport vehicles we use here in Australia. While we don’t typically use Land Rovers in this role, it felt like a fun challenge to rework the design into something that reflects our local needs.

In reality, vehicles like the Toyota LandCruiser Troop Carrier—or ‘Troopy’, as it’s affectionately known—are far more common across Australian fire services, especially in remote and regional areas. So maybe that’s one I’ll have to tackle in a future MOC…

This model doesn’t include firefighting equipment like hoses or tanks—it’s purely a personnel mover, designed to get the crew from A to B safely and efficiently.


I hope you enjoy!
