SEAT Fura

The SEAT Fura is a supermini car produced by SEAT between 1981 and 1986, based on the Fiat 127 that the firm had built since April 1972. It began in November 1981 as the SEAT 127 Fura, almost identical to the third series of the Italian Fiat 127, and after the licence to the 127 expired SEAT had to develop a new version, which lost the 127 name and went on sale in January 1982. It was available as a three-door and five-door hatchback. A hot hatch, the Fura Crono, arrived in 1983 with a 75 PS 1,438 cc four-cylinder engine and a top speed of 160 km/h, and a facelifted Fura Dos followed that year. The first Ibiza of April 1984 made the Fura largely redundant, and it was discontinued in December 1986.
