1980 AVIA SIATA 500 Furgoneta - a photo on Flickriver

1980 AVIA SIATA 500 Furgoneta

            This is the last version of the old Siata minivan concept.

After Siata Española merged with Motor Ibérica in 1973  the Siata minivans were renamed. For a period they were sold simultaneously under the brand name Ebro as well as Avia. Both brand names were subdivisions of Motor Ibérica and specialized in commercial vehicles.
The main differences between the Ebro Siata and the Avia Siata minivan were the grille and the emblems.

When Siata Española merged with Motor Ibérica in 1970 the company inherited all Siata patents. Production continued under Siata brand name.
Early 1973 these minivans were put on the Spanish market as Ebro Siata 40, still with chassis and technics of a Seat 600.
Production of Seat 600 ceased in mid 1973, so that Ebro decided to use the Seat 850 platform and engine for their renamed 50S Furgoneta.
In 1974 production of the Seat 850 stopped and Ebro changed to the Seat 133 chassis and technics.
Also the Avia Siata 50-S was build on a Seat 133 chassis.

Siata Española was a subsidiary of the Italian Siata. In Spain the company concentrated on special and light commercial vehicles on a Seat 600 chassis. This is in contrast to the Italian Siata, which mainly made small luxury cars based on the Fiat 600, and a minivan on a 600 Multipla platform.
Siata Española was active from 1960 to 1973 when it merged with Motor Ibérica.
In 1979 became Nissan Motors partly owner of Motor Ibérica. After 1986 when Nissan Motors bought the majority of the shares the brand names Avia and Ebro disappeared in favour of Nissan Motors Ibérica.
