Television advertisements in the United Kingdom for the (Vauxhall) Tigra featured the tune " Fiesta" by The Pogues. General Motors' Pontiac division had considered importing the Tigra to the United States, but in the end they decided that the car was too small for American consumers. The production vehicle was introduced in the beginning of 1994, and was built at Opel's Zaragoza plant in Spain. The Tigra was built on the platform of the second generation Opel Corsa. The première of the concept Tigra in the United Kingdom was in October 1993, at the London Motorfair. The first Tigra was based on the coupé concept car of the same name that was shown at the 1993 Frankfurt Motor Show, alongside an open top Tigra Roadster concept and the Scamp off roader/pickup.
