Santana Motor, S.A. was a Spanish motor vehicle manufacturer based in Linares, in the province of Jaén, Spain.
It was originally created in 1956 as "Metalúrgica de Santa Ana, S.A." to manufacture agricultural machinery, but soon, in 1961, it began to produce off-road cars under licence from Land Rover, which would send complete knock-down kits to Santana's factory in Linares to be assembled there and sold under the name "Land Rover Santana". It manufactured various comparable models, which were enormously popular among Spanish farmers and ranchers, and exported many to South America, North Africa and the Middle East, always with the authorisation of the British licensee, which had been unable to meet the demand of these regions.
Today, Santana vehicles are highly sought after, particularly in the United Kingdom where they have been auctioned for relatively high prices. Their similarity to the scarce original Land Rover-series cars and their longevity have made Santanas desirable amongst collectors and a icon of four-by-four vehicles.
