Beautiful, short Land Rover Santana series III, an option model "Especial" 88-inch from the year 1981 in very good condition considering it’s 37 years old... Everything works and the car is constantly being moved... registered car with seven seats ... As a 7-seater (the seven seats are also included), the roof is removable and the windshield can be folded down. Lots of options, such as a completely revised powertrain, revised brakes with brake booster, new suspension (the car is now a tad bit higher), manual 4-gear transmission plus 5th Gear (Overdrive), tow bar with a capacity of 1,800 kg (original equipment)... strictly private vehicle, which has been continuously maintained and is equipped with new tyres (there are 8 tyres for this car with an additional 2nd set of wheel rims) The vehicle was delivered new in Girona, Catalonia, in 1981 and was driven there until the autumn of last year and acquired there in the autumn of 2017. It can now be viewed on Majorca after its revision along with a complete service and new registration. The restoration, such as the brakes, drivetrain and suspension, was performed by a retired employee of the Land Rover Santana, S.A. in a specialist garage near Barcelona. The vehicle was repainted a year ago and received a complete service by request of the current owner, including the replacement of several parts as well as an oil change, new oil, etc. in November of 2017. No corresponding German ASU exhaust check is required due to the production year. The Spanish inspection (ITV) has been renewed already without any defects in October 2017; currently valid until 04/2018 and documented in the data sheet (see photos). • Land Rover Santana series 3 especial 88" • 2,286 cc four-cylinder aspirated diesel engine with 62 HP / 43 kW • Four-wheel drive with a new 4-gear manual gearbox plus Overdrive • The vehicle is equipped with freewheel hubs on the front axle 2 x 4 / 4 x 4 • Optimised braking system with brake booster • Hardtop; on request also in white, because there is an extra one • New tyres 235/75R15 on one piece rims plus additional original rim set, also with new tyres on 6.00 x 16 • Spare wheel holder on the rear door and on the rear loading area (including two spare tyres) • Odometer reading of approx. 17,769 km; based on the documents probably a total mileage of 117,769 km • Due to the age, you can get a car tax exemption in Spain upon request; in other EU countries this might not be applicable. The owner would like to point out that this model is a 37-year-old collectible, which is not comparable to a Land Rover Defender of a newer model year. This vehicle is intended for use on country estates in the mountains and not for the city just to drive 250 km to an estate on a Friday afternoon. The first-class supply of spare parts of this model along with its construction allows for quick quickly and cost-effectively repairs. Example: The replacement of a starter motor costs around 3 hours of workshop plus about €100 for the newly produced spare parts.
