MERCEDES C-CLASS ESTATE (2001 - TO DATE)奔驰的C类产业(2001年至今)
Executive estates left something to be desired before the arrival of the Mercedes C-class.行政屋欠理想来临前的奔驰的C级. You either opted for the sporty route and bought a car with very little carrying capacity or you chose a something with a practical amount of room but which handled like a lumbering barge.无论你选择的路线和潇洒买车很少载重量或你选择了一些与实际金额室处理,但像砍驳船. The BMW 3 Series Touring was having things much to itself at the sporty end of the spectrum until the arrival of the C-class estate in May 2001.宝马三号系列巡回的东西有很多是自己在潇洒频谱直到年底到来居一流地产在2001年5月. With its sleek styling and sparkling chassis, the second-generation C-class offered a fundamental change in approach from C-class models of the past.其造型优美、晶莹剔透的底盘、第二代的C级优惠方式的根本转变,由丙级型号过去. The conservative blandness of the old car replaced by some adventurous design touches.blandness保守党取代了旧有的车设计触及冒险. One thing didn?t change.雾化一回事?笔改变. As a used prospect, the C-class estate is still a superb investment.作为一个用前景,丙级地产投资仍是高超.
HISTORY历史
The Mercedes C-Class estate?s entrance to the market was eased significantly by the positive publicity generated by its saloon counterpart which had been on sale for a year by the time the estate arrived.<宾士丙级遗产?收盘市场入口处大大缓解了正面宣传,产生了对口球馆已发售了一年的时间来屋. The range kicked off with the C180, a 129bhp four-cylinder estate and also included the 163bhp C200 Kompressor, the 170bhp C240, the 218bhp C320 and two diesel models, the 143bhp C220CDi and the punchy 170bhp C270CDi.射程开锣与c180,129bhp四缸产业和C200的还包括163bhpkompressor,170bhp的c240,c320218bhp和柴油两种型号,143bhpc220cdi和170bhpc270cdi贴. A rocketship C32AMG estate was launched in late 2001 while in autumn 2002 all four cylinder engines were replaced with greener, more frugal ?Twinpulse?一rocketshipc32amg地产发起于2002年秋在2001年底全部4缸发动机铺绿,更俭朴?twinpulse? units.单位. A revised C-Class estate model was launched in 2004 with a C55 AMG model heading up the range.订正的C级模型屋2004年推出了C55上往上升幅度磁悬浮示范.
The C-Class estate engine range was given a thorough overhaul in the summer of 2005.居一流地产引擎得到彻底射程在2005年夏季. The C230K was replaced by a C230 with a V6 204bhp powerplant instead of the supercharged 1.8.取而代之的是c230的c230k与V6导204bhp的动力,而非增压1.8. Above that, a 231bhp C280 was introduced and the range-topping C320 became a C350 with 272bhp.以上表示,并介绍了日常231bhp距离成了最受c320c350与272bhp. On the diesel front, the 224bhp C320CDI came in at the expense of the C270CDI.在柴油方面,224bhpc320cdi进来c270cdi不惜牺牲的.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The old version was hardly a removal van but this one will appeal even less to grandfather clock-toting antique dealers (who will continue to buy the larger E-class station wagon).旧版本的搬运车,但这几乎是一个将要上诉更少祖父时钟拎着古董(卫生组织将继续大买电子类的旅行车). After all, carrying volume apparently fell from 665 to 470 litres with the seats up and from 1,510 to 1,384 litres with them folded own.毕竟携带数量明显下降,由665至470公升的席位最多,从1510到1384公升,与他们自己折叠. These then, are the facts ?这些话都是事实? or are they?或者是谁? Mercedes says not.宾士说不是.
For a start, the company claims that though the ultimate size of the carrying area may have fallen, the usable space on offer has actually increased.一开始,该公司声称,虽然最终的载客人数方面可能倒下,提供可用空间反而增加了. So though this car may ultimately be able to carry fewer golf balls, it will certainly accommodate a larger box.虽然最终可能使汽车做到少高尔夫球,一定可以容纳更多信箱. Which is why the payload capacity has actually been increased (to 525kg), the overall length increased by 25mm and self-levelling suspension included as standard.这就是为什么载荷能力其实已增加(×)总长度增加的25mm和自我削悬浮列为标准. In any case, even what space is on offer is vastly more than some of this car?s key rivals.无论如何,即使是在提供什么空间大大超过这一部分车?收盘关键对手. A BMW 3 Series Touring manages 435 and 1345 litres and as for Alfa Romeo?s 156 Sportwagon, well don?t even bother getting the tape measure out.宝马三号系列旅游管理一、1345年435公升至于蜜?收盘sportwagon156、鲍思好?笔甚至使皮尺.
All these cars are what we?ve come to know as ?lifestyle estates?, cars more likely to carry a gym bag than a Great Dane.这些车都是我们?味谙作为?生活方式遗产?、车更有可能比带有很大统计局体操袋. People buy them for the same reason they take out Health Club memberships they hardly use: to offer the possibilities of a more active lifestyle without actually having to pursue it.人们出于同样的原因,他们买健康俱乐部成员,他们很难购买使用:给予更积极的生活方式可能没有真正的良机. In designing this version of the latest C-class, Mercedes couldn?t ignore these people, leaving their designers the thankless task of having to try and combine sense with style.设计这个最新版本的C级、奔驰记不起来?这些人无视笔、设计师的苦差使他们有意识地尝试把与风格. All things considered, they?ve really done rather well.总算,他们?维生素E确实做的比较好.
To try and make up for the ultimate lack of inches, the candles have been well and truly burnt in a bid to make the most of what there is.设法弥补不足,最终英寸、蜡烛已烧好,真正以图做出最有什么. There?s a sturdy folding shopping box that lives under the load floor and a luggage cover (which moves with the seat back) incorporating a roll-up safety net to stop loose items flying forward under sharp braking.?收盘了坚实生命的折叠购物箱,地板及行李负载复盖(动作与椅背)将滚了安全网,以阻止松散项下向前飞行尖锐刹车. The headrests flip neatly up out of the way when you fold down the rear bench, which either flops onto the cushion or folds completely flat when the cushion has been lifted out of the way.翻盖整齐的头垫起来的办法,当你出十倍后方台阶下,它要么反复走当缓冲垫或褶皱单位已完全摆脱了一路.
Lift the electrically operated rear tailgate and the floor stretches before you ?电动升降机的后方栏板和地板绵你们面前? up to 2650mm with the front seat folded, which should be useful if you?ve a ladder or a surfboard to carry.同达2650mm前座折叠、如果你应该有用吗?虚拟阶梯或surfboard携带. Moreover, as Mercedes promise, the floor space itself looks eminently usable, spoiled only at the side by slightly intruding suspension turrets.此外,梅赛德斯诺言,面积本身显得非常实用,宠坏了,只在一边入侵稍受炮塔. At the business end, the floor is right down at bumper level, flush with a stainless steel loading sill for easy ingress of heavy items.在商业方面,请停权保险杠级搜捕与不锈钢容易落坎水份重物品. Once inside, they can be lashed down using chrome hooks anchored to the boot floor.一旦侵入,可以利用绑下来的锚钩铬行李箱地板.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
If you want the badge, you?re going to have to come up with the banknotes.如果你想要的徽章,你呢?再会有拿出钞票. £16,000 will land you a C180 Classic on a 2001 Y plate whilst an 02 registered Classic SE will fetch around £18,000.土地1.6万英镑将您c180经典板块虽然在2001年的02年注册肽Y经典硒会卖到1.8万英镑左右. The C200K Elegance estate starts at £18,000 on an 01 Y plate and the sporty Avantgarde version is only about £100 extra.c200k高雅的地产始于2001年在18000英镑肽Y板块和潇洒先锋版本只有100多英镑. the 2.6-litre C240 starts at £19,000 in Elegance trim on a 2001 Y plate and the desirable 3.2-litre car kicks off at £20,700, again for an Elegance version.260公升c24019,000英镑始于2001年雅浪对肽Y板块和可取3.2-20,700英镑公升轿车揭幕,又一个漂亮版本.
The diesel versions are probably even more impressive than their petrol counterparts and there?s not a weak link in the line up.柴油版本可能更为可观,但比汽油?收盘没有一个薄弱环节,在排队. Sticker prices for the C220CDi start at £18,500 for a 2001 Y plated Classic whereas if you want the more powerful C270CDi version you?ll need to stump yup at least £19,800, again for a Classic.贴纸的价格为18,500英镑c220cdi2001年开始肽Y镀经典而如果你想要的版本更为强大c270cdi你?剑舞残至少需要19,800英镑、再一个典型. All the prices quoted above are for models fitted with automatic gearboxes.以上各型号报价装有自动变速箱.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
Don?t worry if your C200 Kompressor engine sounds a little rough ?鲍思?如果你担心笔C200的发动机听起来有点粗糙kompressor? they all sound that way.他们都是这样健全. You should be concerned if the interior of your C-class is less than pristine as some of the plastic mouldings don?t really come up to scratch.如果你要关心你的内政部的C级小于原始一些塑胶模鲍思?笔真的到位. Many of the interiors were also finished in very pale greys and mushroom colours and will therefore get grimy in short order.内部也有不少选手在很苍白黑白不分、蘑菇颜色,因此将会得到脏活总之秩序. There should be no major mechanical defects, but check alloy wheels for signs of kerbing and make sure the ABS and traction control systems work effectively as the electronics have been known to fail.应无重大机件、但查核合金轮子迹象镶边务必ABS的牵引控制系统和有效的工作,因为电子已知道结局.
Trade experts reckon these cars are most desirable when specified in an attractive metallic colour with automatic transmission, air conditioning and leather upholstery.贸易专家们估计,这些车都是最理想当指明一个吸引金属彩色自动传动系统、空调座垫革. You might bear that in mind when choosing a car as the right specification will make selling on easier.你可能会记住这件事的正确选择规格将使汽车销售就比较容易.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx. Based on C220 diesel estate model) Allow around £50 for front brake pads and £25 for the rear, and about £370 for a full Mercedes exhaust system.(约基于c220柴油产业示范)允许大约50英镑25英镑刹车皮阵线的后方大约为370英镑,全部宾士排气系统. A full clutch system would cost around £220, a radiator is about £140 whilst a starter motor can be up to £470.离合器系统将全部费用大约220英镑,散热器虽然是一个约140英镑的起动马达可达470英镑. An alternator should be in the region of £415 (exchange).应当在该地区的发电机415英镑(外汇).
ON THE ROAD 在路上
The first thing to say is that it?s a huge improvement on anything we?ve previously seen from Stuttgart.首先要说的是它?我们的一个巨大进步什么?味以前从斯图加特. No rival rides better, but then that was something you could say of the old C-class.没有对手游戏机更好,但是你可以说这是对旧的C级. This one, however, is much more successful in providing insulation without isolation.这其中,更没有孤立的成功提供绝缘. It?s arguably the most agile Mercedes model you can now buy, with crisp, sharp steering, very little bodyroll and an overall standard of composure that no car in its class can match.?收盘提出的最敏捷的奔驰模型现在你可以买到,脆,霎督导、很少bodyroll和整体水平,没有拼车阶级可以比拟.
Whether these are the crucial ingredients for a sports saloon is of course another question.不管是一个关键因素,是另一个问题体育球馆. Manual models don?t help the cause with a rather rubbery gearchange action not conducive to spirited driving.手工型号鲍思?笔利于事业胶状gearchange行动相当不利于公益驾驶. Still, since most Mercedes buyers will opt for the excellent 5-speed automatic that probably won?t be much of an issue.但是,由于大多数买家将选择优秀梅赛德斯5速自动获胜,可能吗?笔会的许多问题. This transmission has a manual mode, allowing you to flip up and down the gearbox yourself, but this auto responds so rapidly, you rarely find yourself needing to bother.本手册具有传输模式,让你挑上忽下的变速箱体验但这种自动反应如此迅速,你需要很少惹上麻烦. Opting for the auto also means you don?t need three feet to use the awkward foot-operated handbrake when accelerating from rest on an upward slope.选择自动还意味着你鲍思?三笔需要用双脚脚尴尬操作handbrake当向上加速从山坡上休息.
Sophisticated electronics of this kind are everywhere around this car: ABS, Brake Assist, traction control and ESP dynamic driving control (to help you out if you enter a corner too fast) are all standard.这种精密的电子周围到处是这种车:ABS的,刹车协助除尘器牵引控制和动态驾驶控制(如果你帮助你进入一个角落太快)都是标准. So are no fewer than six front airbags (windowbags along with those at the side and the front).所以者不下六气袋阵线(windowbags随着那些在这边,门前). Plus all the usual executive basics and a vast options list that may bump the asking price of used examples into the ionosphere.加上所有常住行政基本知识和广阔的备选名单可能碰到的例子要价二手电离层.
OVERALL 总体
If outright size isn?t a priority but elegance and engineering integrity are, a used Mercedes C-Class estate is the prefect choice.如果单纯大小肖国?笔重点工程完整而优雅,三是用宾士级地产是十全十美的选择. Our selection would be an early C270CDi but there are a number of standouts.我国将遴选早日c270cdi但有若干佼佼者. Only the C240 appears a weak link.c240似乎只有一个薄弱环节.
