SAVA S-70

The SAVA S-70 was a medium truck built by SAVA of Valladolid, rated at a load of 3.5 tonnes. It belonged to the heavier range that the company began to build from 1961 on the basis of British Austin and BMC designs, which were sold as Sava, Sava-Austin or Sava-BMC. The S-70 replaced the lighter S-66 and, as its main change, took a BMC engine in place of the Barreiros diesel of the earlier truck, together with a rigid front axle. It appears in the lists of SAVA models beside the A-504, S-66, S-76 and A-404, which cover loads from two to seven tonnes. SAVA came under the control of Enasa, the maker of Pegaso trucks, in the mid 1960s, and its models were later sold under the Pegaso name.
