The Spanish models (410, 413 and samurai) were all made in the Santana Land Rover plant, in Santana, Spain.

First they made land rovers, then Suzukis, then they now make Santanas, which are basically land rovers.

They do still make brand new SJs to order... Rhino Ray bought one a while ago for about £10k
All left hand drive though! :(

vin plate is inside the cab on the front pillar by the side of the throttle pedal
but as you say you cant find it so it could be anywhere, mine is under about 4 years worth of mud and and paint marks over it.

and the chassis number is on the chassis leg on front drivers side under wheel arch

hope this helps tom ;)
