The outside is upgraded with 305 / 45 R22 tires and custom wheels. Many upgrades are from a later model Defender.

This truck is a beacon of class that is hard to come by in modern 4x4 vehicles. The Land Rover and Santana relationship is often overlooked. Santana was on the fore front of Land Rover development. Because of the tight financial position during the early period ofBritish Leyland (which owned Land Rover), Santana were often better placed than Land Rover which alowed Santana to find failure points early on. Because of this Santana began to engineer its own solutions to common problems into the models it produced and thus arose a degree of originality and reliability in Santana's models compared to Land Rover's original products.
