SKODA FAVORIT (1989-1995)小轿车favorit(1989-1995)
If budget is everything in your search for a family hatchback, then it's to Eastern Europe that you must turn.如果预算是每一个家庭hatchback您搜索,那你必须把东欧. Which needn't necessarily be a bad thing thanks to Skoda.这不一定是坏事,由于小轿车. The Favorit was the Czech maker's first modern era model and became a value for money family hatch known to be economical both to run and to insure.favorit是捷克制造的首个示范,成为近代物有所值舱口已知是家庭经营和经济效益都投保. Volkswagen purchased Skoda virtually lock, stock and barrel in the middle of the Favorit's life and the Wolfsburg influence immediately worked wonders.福士购买小轿车,几乎锁股票和桶中的favorit生平和沃尔夫斯堡立即影响奇迹. While the build quality of early examples is patchy, the later cars are underrated and superb second-hand value.而建立质量早期例子是修修补补,后来车低估和高超的二手价值.
HISTORY历史
The Favorit was the last of the home-grown Skodas.favorit的是最后的土生土长skodas. The Bertone-designed shape was launched in 1989 as a single body style ?bertone的设计形状为1989年推出单一机构风格? five-door hatch ?五舱口大门? and featured a single 1289cc 54bhp engine.而节目单1289cc54bhp引擎. Forum, Forum Plus, 136 L, 136 LX and 136 LS trim levels were offered.论坛,论坛,加上136公升、136、136lx80707镑修剪层次. An estate version was launched in June 1992.地产版推出1992年6月.
In 1993, fuel injected 67bhp versions (designated 'E' on the bootlid) were launched with LX, LX Plus and GLX trim.1993年,燃料注入67bhp版本(指定『E』的bootlid)发起lx,lx,加上天然修剪. By this time, thanks to the VW take-over, the build quality of a Favorit wasn't, in theory, very much different to that of a Golf.此时,多亏了64+15接管,建立了质量favorit不是在理论上非常不同到高尔夫球. The cabin featured VW switchgear as well as in-vogue features like catalytic converters with fuel injection and side-impact door protection bars on every model.机舱展出64+15开关乃至于时尚特点,如催化器燃油喷射侧冲击保护酒吧每门示范.
In 1995, the Favorit was replaced with the mechanically similar Felicia range.1995年,随着机械favorit取代同类刘国昌射程.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The best of the old school Eastern European cars ?最好的东欧老校车? particularly as already said, in later guises.尤其是已经说过,在后来的残忍. The five-door hatch is only a little smaller than an Escort and the estate makes good family sense, larger than many modern lifestyle estates like BMW's 3 Series Touring.五门舱口只是小一点保姆、家庭财产良好意识,像许多现代生活方式大于屋宝马300系列巡回.
Whichever variant you decide upon, you'll end up with a better equipped, more stylish car which will save you thousands on, say, the cheapest Ford Escort.你决定哪个变种老去落得一个更好、更气派车就可以节省上千,例如最便宜的福特护航. At the price, about the only thing that you could conceivably dislike about it would be its Eastern European badge ?在价格、大约惟一可以想见你会喜欢它的东欧徽章? and there are precious few of those to be found around the Bertone-sculpted bodywork.还有珍贵的要数那些到处bertone-琢磨车体.
If your neighbours should discover that you've just invested your money in Eastern European engineering, then a guided tour around the fully carpeted boot, and comfortable interior with its rev counter, stereo system and internal headlamp adjuster might be called for.如果你的邻居应该发现,你只是你的钱投资在东欧工程然后参观各地充分车尾箱地毯、舒适的室内与晨曦柜立体声系统和可调节前照灯内部要求.
Inside the spacious cabin, the Favorit is very roomy, taller and wider than most of its competitors, allowing a six-foot passenger to sit behind a six-foot driver without discomfort.宽敞的座舱内,favorit十分宽敞,高大,范围较大多数竞争对手让六脚坐在后面乘客六脚司机无不适.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Don't buy an early Favorit unless you have to because build quality wasn't perfect on the first examples.不买,除非你要早日favorit因为没有建立完善的质量第一的例子. Try to go for the later cars (£200-£900) where the VW influence is obvious (note the Golf switchgear).后来车去尝试(200英镑-900英镑)的影响是显而易见64+15(注高尔夫球开关).
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
As already mentioned, watch out for inconsistent build quality on earlier cars.如前所述,不提防轿车较早建立质量. Avoid high-mileage examples or badly looked after cars ?避免高里程例子好坏关照车? it?s just not worth it.?收盘止不值得. Some gearboxes are rather sloppy.变速箱颇有些草率. Watch out for loose bits of trim.提防松散比特修剪. Go for the higher spec GLX cars; they're not much pricier than the very basic lead-in examples.高光谱天然车去;他们不是很远高于基本价格较高铅在例子. Don't bother asking for power steering; it was never offered.甭管要求动力转向;它从来优惠.
The special edition Silverline and Blackline variants that appeared from 1993 onwards were well specified, looked good (with smoked tail light lenses and clear indicator repeaters).特别版silverlineblackline变种,并从1993年起出现良好指明看好(熏尾巴轻镜片和清晰的指标重读). They're worth around £150 more than a standard GLX.他们围绕价值超过150英镑的天然标准.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx based on a Favorit 1.3 LS) An exhaust system (without catalyst) is about £150.(大约基于最小二乘favorit三月一日)排气系统(无催化剂)约150英镑. A clutch assembly will be around £75 and front and rear brake pads are just under £35 and £40 respectively.一英镑左右离合器大会将于75前后刹车皮就在35和40英镑英镑. An alternator should be close to £75 and a radiator around £105.一个发电机应接近75英镑105英镑左右的散热器.
A front wing is about £50.前永约英镑50. A new tail lamp would cost just under £40 and a replacement headlamp close to £60.新尾巴灯具花费略低于英镑40英镑更换前照灯接近60. A windscreen should be in the region of £125.车辆的挡风玻璃,应在该地区125英镑. Routine services cost about £110.例行服务费约110英镑.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
You won't buy a Favorit if you're a driving enthusiast.你不会买你favorit驾驶爱好者. This was the first front wheel drive Skoda, so its handling is dependable however, and better than other Eastern European offerings.这是首次前轮驱动小轿车,以处理可靠但是优于其他东欧和祭品.
The Czech 1.3-litre engine is a rather noisy but willing.捷克1.3公升引擎是比较嘈杂但愿意. Try and stretch to the fuel injected version.设法舒展的燃料注入版本. So powered, the Favorit has what Skoda describes as ?smoother yet crisper performance?.所以马力,favorit有什么斯形容?不过明快流畅的表现?.
Top speed increases to 93mph, while rest to sixty takes 15.0s, a reduction of two seconds.最高时速提高到93mph,而需休息60至15.0s,减少了两秒. Just as importantly, fuel consumption benefits by 5% at a steady 56mph.同样重要的是,耗油效益稳步56mph5%. Which means that hatchback models should achieve 35.3mpg around town and 51.4mpg at a steady 56mph.这意味着要达到35.3mpghatchback模范城和周围51.4mpg在稳定56mph.
OVERALL 总体
Buy carefully and this Czech mate could leave you with the last laugh.小心买到这与捷克搭档笑到了最后,你可以离开.
