Land Rover’s stamp of class

We were just sitting round the CR office bemoaning the lack of quality print ads these days when up popped a rather nice new execution from RKCR/Y&R for the Land Rover Defender

The Defender’s distinctive shape is created from a collage of passport stamps suggesting that the car is the one you need to take you to all these exotic locales (rather than to the nearest supermarket/do the school run etc). The result is beautifully crafted, restrained and deceptively simple in a manner that we don’t often see today.

The ad is part of a campaign that has been consistently good. Check out Toolkit from the back end of last year:
