The SEAT Fura is a supermini produced by Spanish automaker SEAT from 1981 to 1986. The Fura is a rebadged version of the Fiat 127, available in three and five-door hatchback bodystyles.
Once the license expired, SEAT developed a new version, the SEAT Fura Dos, that doesn't differ much from its predecessor. It was produced until 1986. The launch of the SEAT Ibiza MK1 in 1984 made the car redundant. For about 1–2 years the 3-door cars were competing internally within the company and the Fura had to go.
A hot hatch called the Fura Crono was introduced in 1983. It was powered by a 75 horsepower (56 kW) 1,438 cc four-cylinder.[1]
[edit] Motorsport
The SEAT Fura Crono was used in the 'Copa Fura' one-make rally series launched in 1983[2][3] and terminated in 1985.[4]
