1987 Land Rover Santana 2.5 DL LHD

***Vendor supplied images***

Highlights

  • A fascinating and lesser seen Land Rover variant
  • Powered by a 2.5-litre diesel engine
  • Unusual and innovative features never seen on British made Land Rovers
  • Convertible land rover with hardtop  

The Appeal

Even for those intimately acquainted with the history and features of British made Land Rovers, the Spanish Santana holds a few surprises. The basic shape and four-wheel drive formula will be familiar, but at the same time, there’s a great deal that’s unique to these curious cars.
This 1987 example represents something of a halfway house between Series and 90/110 models, sitting upon leaf springs but with an overall appearance akin to the concurrent 110. 
For those attracted to the Series Land Rover experience with a craving for something that’s a little different, we urge you to consider this interesting Santana.

The History and Paperwork

  • Imported to the Netherlands from Spain
  • Spanish registration and technical inspection apparently still valid
  • Left-hand drive
  • 89,746 kilometres 

The Interior

  • Interesting padded dashboard unique to Santana models
  • Simple switchgear and easily legible instrumentation make this a practical space
  • Typically sparse and utilitarian
  • Black vinyl seats extend transversely across the whole cabin as a bench arrangement
  • Various levers to manually engage low range and four-wheel drive
  • Ribbed rubber matting lines a useful rear load area
  • No rear seats fitted and there’s less wheel arch intrusion than on British models, making this a versatile space

The Exterior 

  • Attractive sand colour scheme
  • Hard top fitted with large rear windows
  • Curious amalgamation of Series-style front wings and a 90/110-style bonnet
  • Prominent ‘Santana’ badging
  • One piece windscreen
  • Very practical ‘barn doors’ at the rear, allowing for great access
  • Unusual light arrangement that’ll be unfamiliar to owners of British Land Rovers
  • Galvanised cappings and bumper

The Mechanics 

  • 2.5-litre naturally aspirated diesel engine
  • Four-speed manual gearbox
  • Selectable low range and four-wheel drive
  • Leaf sprung all round

Summary

It’s not often you are able to acquire a Land Rover Santana outside of Spain, so if you’re after something a little unusual, don’t miss this excellent opportunity.
