RENAULT ESPACE (2002 - TO DATE)雷诺Espace航天(2002-至今)
With every successive generation, Renault?s Espace has become bigger, slicker and more sophisticated, Scenic and Grand Scenic models filling the vacuum it left beneath it.与历届一代,雷诺?收盘协商变得更大、更复杂、slicker,风景名胜和宏伟型号填补它留下的真空底下. The 2002 model fourth generation Espace was a big reach upmarket and whilst Renault realised that sales volumes would never replicate the Espace?s glory days of the late eighties, it nevertheless meant that they possessed the MPV that all the rest had to look to in terms of style leadership and prestige.2002年第四代Espace航天模型的一大档次,同时达到销售额不会意识到雷诺复制协商?八十年代后期的辉煌日子,但它意味着他们拥有的巡逻艇,其余已全部指望在领导作风和威望. A used Espace lands you these attributes at more manageable asking prices.你用协商的土地价格,这三点要求在较易管理.
HISTORY历史
Renault, it seems, have an infinite ability to surprise us industry watchers.雷诺似乎有无限的能力,我们惊奇产业旁观. The Espace came straight out of the blue when it was launched in 1984, and few recognised the potential of the mini-MPV market that Renault so cannily cornered with their Scenic.开门见山的协商出突然发射时在1984年数潜力和认可小巡逻艇用心做市场,雷诺与风景狗急跳墙. Latterly, Renault have been growing increasingly bold, with the adventurously styled Megane II and the flights of fancy that are the Vel Satis and Avantime models.从前,雷诺已越来越大胆,随着adventurously摆开megane二、夸夸而有令人满意的Vel先生avantime型号. Therefore, it would be reasonable to assume the latest Espace, launched in November 2002, would be something radically different to its predecessor.因此,这是合理的最新协商承担,2002年11月发射,将有942至截然不同.
The New Espace, as Renault prefer to call this fourth generation car, is an evolutionary advance over its predecessor rather than anything manifestly revolutionary.新的协商,由于雷诺宁愿称之为第四代车其前身是一个渐进的,而不是前进了什么明显的革命. What is surprising is that Renault have, if anything, toned down their recent excess of novelty and have restored some normality to the Espace.令人惊讶的是,雷诺已奠下淡化了,最近已经恢复了一些新鲜又超出正常的协商. Whereas the outgoing model was built around a radical spaceframe chassis with composite parts, the Espace instead opts for a more conventional steel monocoque platform shared with the Laguna and Vel Satis.而卸任激进网架左右建成示范复合底盘零件而选择了更多的协商常规钢车身平台共享与丽、Vel先生令人满意. Only the wings and tailgate are now made of plastic composites, the doors and bonnet being fabricated in aluminium with a steel roof.只机翼正在做出栏板和塑料复合材料门窗、头盖被捏造铝钢屋盖用. The choice of engines was also widened with a superb 3.0-litre diesel and a punchy 2.0-litre turbo petrol unit being standout units.选择引擎也拓宽了高超的3.0公升柴油和贴2.0升汽油涡轮水准单位正股.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The exterior styling is a little more angular than the outgoing Espace, although few will have any cause for complaint.外观造型是一比一点角离任协商,虽然有少数会引起投诉. The detailing is very neat, with rakish scalene triangles formed by bevelled front and rear wings.详细的很干净,神仙不等边三角形组成的翅膀斜前方和后方. The interior will be largely familiar but Renault have taken the concept of hiding all the major instruments and controls to extremes.内政部将在很大程度上已耳熟能详,但雷诺概念隐藏所有主要仪器和控制极端. A single central digital display shows most of the main functions, but the stereo controls are hidden under one of a multitude of flaps, as is the optional satellite navigation system.中央数字显示屏显示单一大部分主要职能但隐藏在一个立体控制多种皮瓣、由于卫星导航系统是择. The controls for these features are a little fiddly, although the door-mounted air conditioning and ventilation controls are well executed.对照这些特征都有点fiddly,虽然大门装空调通风管好签.
The Espace has gained an additional 57mm of rear headroom and a not inconsequential 225mm of length behind the front pair of seats.协商有了更多的长径比后方通行一桩桩、225mm长度战线后面一双席位. Unlike the Citroen C8 and Peugeot 807 with which it will compete for the bulk of its business, the Espace does without sliding doors or eight seat options and instead offers five stand alone rear seats that are identical, each incorporating its own seat belt, which means that they can be repositioned anywhere on the four full length or four 225mm semi tracks.像雪铁龙和标致807的C8与它竞逐的大部分业务,协商的大门并没有滑动或8个座位单独提供期权而后座,却一致每一把自己安全带这意味着他们可以在任何地方定位四个或四个全长225mm半径. Safety has been well attended to, with curtain airbags that cover all three rows of passengers as well as the more usual twin front and side balloons.安全一直深受欢迎,窗帘气袋,以涵盖所有三个排的乘客以及平日多侧面孪生气球. The four outer passengers in the rear also get chest airbags, making the Espace a vehicle that must be quite magnificent to crash in.四个后座乘客也得在外胸部气袋,使协商车辆必须进来颇为壮观坠毁
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Although certain Espace models have become popular with importers and car supermarkets, prices have largely held up well.虽然某些协商模式已成为热门汽车进口商和超市,价格大都不俗增长. £13,500 will buy you a 2.0T Expression on an 03 plate but to land one of the 2.2-litre diesel versions you?ll need at least £17,500 with 3.0-litre versions opening at £24,750.你买了1.35万英镑将在2003年表达产物,而是土地板块之一2.2公升柴油版本你?当地至少需要17,500英镑与3.0公升版本在开幕24750英镑. The rarer Grand Espace versions attract considerable demand and are tough to find in an exact spec/colour combination.协商版本,吸引了相当罕见的大需求,找出一个确切强硬光谱/颜色组合. Insurance ranges from Group 12 for the 2.2-litre dCi up to Group 15 for the 3.5-litre V6 versions.不等保险集团122.2公升协会多达15组的3.5公升V6导版本.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
Check for worn suspension and tired clutches and gearbox.检查离合器、变速箱磨损暂停和疲倦. Also make sure that the car you're looking at has a service history and hasn't had a company background or, worse, been used as a taxi.还使车你看有没有对外服务公司的历史、背景或有、更糟的是,被用作计程车. Fourth generation cars have no major faults but check for interior wear and tear and exterior parking scrapes.第四代车,但都没有重大过失检查室内及室外停车损耗冲突. Look for damage to the composite body panels, as repairs can be expensive.寻找损坏的综合体板,可作为维修昂贵.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx based on a 2003 Grand Espace 2.2dCi) Expect to pay around £275 for a front bumper assembly and £165 if one of the headlamps goes on the blink.(大约协商的基础上,2003年盛大2.2dci)期待支付了约275英镑,前保险杠、集会如果其中的165英镑的推移眨巴大灯. The Michelin Pilot original equipment tyres are £155 each.原设备轮胎Michelin美食飞行员每155英镑.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
Three petrol engines are available, a 140bhp 2.0-litre 16v, a 165bhp 2.0-litre 16v turbo and then a big step up to the 245bhp 3.5-litre V6.三汽油引擎供选择,一140bhp2.0公升16v、一165bhp2.0公升涡轮16v然后一大步,至245bhp3.5升V6导.

Truth be told, there isn?t a bad engine here, and the diesel models are superbly economical.说穿了,肖国?此笔不良引擎、柴油都拥有一流的经济模式. There aren?t too many V6 diesel engines about, and having driven this one, we have to wonder why.有西哈莫尼?笔V6导柴油机约太多,这其中有驱动,我们要知道为什么. Torque is what this engine?s all about, sheer muscle right from the get go.正是这种发动机扭矩?收盘一回事,从纯粹的肌肉得到走. The peak torque figure of 258lb ft isn?t far shy of what a Porsche 911 Carrera manages and the big Renault feels effortlessly strong when accelerating through the mid range.峰值扭矩258lb尺肖国人物?什么样的笔远远害羞保时捷911Carrera先生管理和雷诺大感强烈时用力加速通过中期射程. A maximum power rating of 180bhp combines to propel the 3.0dCi Espace to 60mph in a gnat?s over 10 seconds and on to a 130mph maximum.最高功率180bhp评分相结合,以推动协商3.0dci60mph在液相?收盘超过10秒,就以最高130mph. If you?ve got an especially disciplined right foot, you?ll average a return of nearly 30mpg from it as well.如果你?有一种特别的味纪律右脚,你呢?当地平均回报从近30mpg那样好. On a long motorway run, expect to see a range in excess of 750 miles due in no small part to the car?s monster 83-litre fuel tank.就长期而言高速公路、期待有一个距离超过750英里归功于以汽车?收盘怪兽83公升燃料.
OVERALL 总体
If you want the best MPV money can buy, here?s a great place to start looking.如果你想要钱可以买到最好的巡逻艇在这里?一个伟大的地方找起. Our pick would be the 3.0-litre dCi diesel version but there?s really not a bad pick in the entire range.我们会挑3.0公升柴油版本,但协会?真是个不错的选择,在全射程. Most of the time the Espace is driven and serviced responsibly so it?s not as if there?s a huge welter of rogue cars to avoid either.大多数时间的协商,以带动和盖销负责任吗?如果不收盘?收盘巨大混乱的流氓车避免. Just make sure you pick one that hasn?t been too worked over by unruly kids.只看重你挑一个独具特色?笔太粗野小孩加班加点.
