Swing, City and Joy models. If I recall.

Haha yep. 1.2L single cam. Top speed was 140. I had it pegged from Sydney to Melbourne before all the speed cameras went up. I think it was 8 hours, which included about an hour of all-you-can-eat Pizza Hut stop in Albury. I don’t remember what model it was. But it was a 3-door, 5 speed with no AC. It was purple with some kind of girly decal along the sides. It was terrible on wet roads too. I actually had another Barina years later. A 2005 with a DOHC 1.4. That was a much better car.
