In 2011 the owner of the company, the Government of Andalusia, decided to close the Santana Motor company and its car factory and 1,341 people were laid off or retired prematurely.[1][9] From 6,692 cars made in 2007, the company manufactured 1,197 in 2009 and no more than 769 in 2010.
so last cars produced by santana motors are from 2010/2011

I agree with the others, if it has a VSE* VIN then its at least four years old.
Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

I'll probably get nowhere but I'm going to try and get some money back for them renting me a rather knackered car.

Underpowered, uncomfortable, thirsty, slow, why on earth would I miss it ? Apart from the fact that every time I drove it made me smile...
Definately thinking of getting another one sometime...

It all depends what my lad decides to do after he passes his test; if he wants to keep driving then I'm probably going to end up financing him to a degree (if only with his first years insurance) and might well get rid of the Wagon & get another jimny for us to share (in addition to my CR-V).
Here's an interesting question for you all though :
Why am I making a fuss about being charged for 44.9 litres of petrol by Avis to refill the Jimny I hired in Rhodes ?
