Agree with carchasefanatic this is a samurai. The Vitara did not have round headlights. http://www.skopelos.net/discovery/images/suzuki-samurai-01.jpg -- Last edit: 2006-03-26 18:50:45 |

When started its sold with 'Santana' make in Spain? In Italy, now Santana import the PS10 (Land Rover based) and the ex-Vitara, hardtop and wagon. They are the only 4x4s sold here with this badge, except the Suzuki Santana SJ. |
