El 600 - Un sueño sobre ruedas
Manuel Vázquez Montalbán affirmed, "the day the Spaniards got into the Seat 600, they began to distance themselves from their past and embarked on a weekend excursion from which they have not yet returned." This dedicated book to the most endearing Spanish car recreates that "excursion", which is still ongoing.
Illustrated with over 150 photographs from various archives, agencies, clubs, enthusiasts, and SEAT itself, it narrates the history of this legendary vehicle. The book delves into its impact on the industry and economy, serving as a spearhead for the so-called "desarrollismo." It explores its profound influence on Spanish society for over fifteen years, from the late 50s to the first half of the 70s, as well as its lasting presence in our collective memories and imagination.
