Chris Bb Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Haven't seen one of those around here in over 5 years. Do they still make them/import them/have agents in UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodp Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Not seen one for donkeys years. Supposed to be relatively comfortable (parabolics) and pull like a train (2.8 Iveco). Wouldn't surprise me to see a come back with them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bb Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Had a quick look around the web this morning, very little good said about them at all. Surprisingly few on a certain auction site. Only seemed to do a very long looking 110, no 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlerob Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I had a santana ps10 for two years not a bad motor they only official did have 1 main dealer for parts and that was norfolk trucks engine is the 2.8 iveco same as the daily van pulls well enough 125bhp. Iveco bought them out and now make 90 as well as 110 sizes know as the iveco massif ones and smart up the inside but chosen to sell them mostly around South America and eaten Europe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 The company I work for, bought one about 7 years ago. It was, and still is, the biggest heap of junk I have ever driven. All the floor panels have rusted, and bits have fallen off, including the running boards. Depending on which way it's parked in the hospital grounds, if it rains, the passenger side get flooded. The plus side, it's very powerful and is excellent when we have snow. It's used for ferrying staff to and from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 You do know you are describing a Land Rover there don't you? Nope. It's a million miles away from a Land Rover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
