The car
About this car in Florence
Eight people landing at Pisa Galileo Galilei usually means two taxis and a van for the bags. The Santorini Black Defender 130 does it in one: eight real seats in three rows, a 250 hp mild-hybrid diesel and all-wheel drive, ready at the airport or at Firenze Peretola. It is the only car of its size that still feels like a Defender on a hill road.
From Pisa, Lucca is a short run, and its Renaissance walls are perfect for a group to walk or cycle together; then the Versilia coast between Viareggio and the Apuan Alps is under an hour away. Back towards Florence the motorway is easy at 130 km/h. The boot holds 389 litres with every row in use, enough for soft bags; fold the third row and it grows to 2,291 litres for a long holiday.
Inside Florence's viali the centre is a ZTL watched by cameras, and a car over five metres long is not for medieval streets in any case. We deliver to Firenze Peretola, Pisa Galileo Galilei, Santa Maria Novella or a villa in the hills, as agreed at booking, with insurance included. Winter tyres are fitted in the cold season.
- Eight seats: one car for a group from Pisa or Peretola
- Lucca walls and the Versilia coast in a day
- From 389 to 2,291 litres of luggage space
