SAVA S-66

The SAVA S-66 was a light truck built by SAVA, the Valladolid maker of light and medium commercial vehicles, from 1961. It was rated at a load of about two tonnes and had a metal cab of a very distinctive panoramic design. Its engine was the Barreiros Diesel EB-4, the same Spanish diesel that SAVA had fitted to its earlier P-58. The S-66 belonged to the heavier range that SAVA began to build in the early 1960s on the basis of British Austin and BMC designs, sold under the names Sava, Sava-Austin or Sava-BMC, and the British Motor Corporation held a small share of the company at the time. It was later replaced in the range by the S-70, which used a BMC engine. SAVA was taken over by Enasa, the maker of Pegaso trucks, in the mid 1960s, and its brand gave way to Pegaso by the end of that decade.
