Many of the early Santanas were assembled from parts manufactured and crated up in Solihull and shipped to Spain. They were assembled at a Spanish factory (Santa Ana) in Jaen/Linares. These were CKDs, or Complete Knockdown Kits. These were badged as Land Rover Santanas, but were the same as the 90/88 and 109/110s being sold in the UK. Eventually, Santana started to manufacture the parts in their highly advanced manufacturing center in Spain. In the early 1980s, Santana started to change some things as the contract and licensing agreements with LR in the UK began to change and/or expire. Some of the biggest noticable changes were in the power plants (offering a 6cyl long before the UK brand did), as well as a turbo. Some parts were developed and manufactured in Spain and exported to the UK for use in genuine English Land Rovers, such as the LT77 transmission. Other differences included an additional safari/alpine window in the roof, different marker lights and tail lights, and a different grill and dashboard. Santana also went to front disk brakes much earlier than LR in the UK.
