Disons que la ligne générale de l'arrière évoque plus une Seat Ronda qu'une Ritmo 2... |

--1979:presented as Seat Ritmo,identical such body at 1978 Fiat Ritmo(1.2 or 1.4 lt. Seat 124-D or 1.6 lt.Seat 131 gasoline engines or diesel 1.7 lt. Fiat Ritmo D engine),lasted until early months of 1982('cause at end of 1981 Seat had renounced definitively at liaisons with Fiat,for start then a new partnership with VW Group) --1982:during 1st half of year was presented the Seat Ritmo's replacement,the Ronda(named after a town of Spain that have the more bigger bullfight arena of whole Country);that was one of the early Seats that don't use Fiat origins names,for effect of new partnership of Seat with VW(that has forbidden use of Fiat names on new Seats);as previous series,engines ranging by smaller 1.2 lt.,passing for the 1.4 and 1.6 lt.,plus the 1.7 lt.diesel --1984:at eve of Summer,the Rondas were subject to powerplants change,especially those gasoline-fueled:in fact,the previous 1.2,1.4. and 1.6 lt.engines of Fiat origins came replaced by brand new"Motor System Porsche"engine series(so-named 'cause were projected by Stuttgart's Make,initially for the Ibiza,the 1st Seat born under VW influence,presented just in 1984),1.2 and 1.5 lt.;those new-engined Rondas(that could be definite as "2a serie",unofficially)were distinguishables outside by a stylized"P"(=Porsche)logo printed on rear fenders' side edges(body and grille unchanged) --1986:Before that Ronda gone out of production,Seat get by that car an hybrid,taking the best of their models:the result was the 3-box Màlaga,practically an Ibiza with trunk(like that,styled by Giugiaro too),based on the engines and modified floorpan of Ronda;respect the car of derivation,the Màlaga lasted until 1993,when comes on market its replacement for Nineties',the Còrdoba(name no much original,'cause was given into Seventies'also to a US-made Chrysler model) PS Are sure that Ronda lasted until 1986,'cause on a 1985 world cars annual they were listed for the last time;in fact,on 1988 issue,into Seat range its place was already recovered by Ibizas(so,the car was disappeared thru 1986-1987;in 1987,that car wasn't imported no more in Italy,so believe that production was already ceased;but if updated in engines,the modified coque was,howewer,still the same of 1978 Fiat Ritmo 1a serie,so was obsolete) PS 2 In Spain don't were sold not the Fiat Ritmo 1a serie and nor 2a serie PS 3 But if car in photo could be easily confused for a Fiat Ritmo 2a serie,the trick to discover was simple:saw if the roof edge shown back a "ripple",like an in-built small spoiler(theorically was set-up on roof for make better drag coefficient=Cx,but practically don't produce none aerodynamic advantage,viceversa make it worst;Fiat's men called it ironically as"Cx killer"):if shown that,is a Ronda(that retains same roofline of Fiat/Seat Ritmo 1a serie);if that "ripple"don't appears on roof back edge,then was a Ritmo 2a serie -- Last edit: 2006-12-25 18:41:22 |

I'm sorry I thought this was a French film. You are right, it is Seat Ronda. |

Long left badge had to be introduced in/for 1984 (but still before the System Porsche "P"). |
