Hi all

Ok is this a 12J or something else , I'm not going to say anything else apart from it's a 2.5 D. N/A , It's 1989 land rover Santana in Spain, can you ID the engine ??? Is it early defender engine or something else. What do you think

ive just repainted her by hand with a roller, re-done the wheels and interior, now just the engine to do, she was a real mess when i got her.

Looks like a normal 2.5 NA.

They were fitted in Nineties and One Tens.

Not sure, but they may have been fitted in some Military Defenders as well.

And it appears, In Santanas. That isn't one of the Series based Santanas, I think it is based on a Ninety.

Going to tag @Shippers , as he knows about Santanas.
