[4] In response to Spanish government limits on imports of completed cars, Renault established in 1951 the Spanish FASA (Fabricacion de Automoviles SA) company which built a plant at Valladolid for the assembly of Renault 4CV cars using components imported from France.

[4] Production levels continued increasing, with the plant producing 14,537 Dauphines in 1961.

[4] 1965 saw the amalgamation of the production business, FASA, with Renault's Spanish distribution company, SAEAR (Société Anonyme Espagnole des Automobiles Renault), which had originally been created in 1908 to distribute cars imported from France, long before import restrictions persuaded the company to create its assembly facility at Valladolid.

[4] The Renault 5 was added to the plant's production line in 1974, triggering a further expansion of FASA output.
