SEAT 600

The SEAT 600 is a Spanish car made in the 50s up to the 60s . It helped to start the economic recovery (called the Spanish Miracle) after the hard years following the Spanish Civil War. It was a relatively inexpensive vehicle and was a first car for many Spanish families.

Technically, the car was not very modern; it was a clone of the Italian Fiat 600 of 1955, with an all-rear construction. SEAT was born as a joint initiative of the Spanish government and Fiat, and the earlier SEAT models were all clones of Fiat vehicles. Curiously enough, the Fiat version enjoyed far less success in its home land than the Spanish model, probably because the Italian market was more advanced than the Spanish.
