Glass's lists PS-10 from April 2004 as Panel Van, Hard Top and Station wagon, all with 2.8 Turbodiesel, 123 bhp. Apparently each came as base, Plus (cloth upholstery and other unspecified gubbins), or Extra Plus (metallic paint, front electric windows, central locking, radio/CD unit) trims. No other info given such as end-dates etc, and no other types. Address listed as FourTec Ltd, Dereham, Norfolk.

Perhaps the design rights for the Series III had expired by then. In any case, Santana sold the Series IV tooling to Morattab in Iran in the early 1990s, so they must have believed that they owned the rights to the Series IV and could do with it as they pleased.
