SUZUKI WAGON R+ (1997- 2000)铃木旅行车住宅+(1997至2000年)
The Suzuki Wagon R+ is something of a landmark vehicle.铃木旅行车住宅+汽车是一个里程碑. Initially dismissed by the European market as just another example of Japan?s obsession with miniaturisation, the design has been embraced by General Motors and made available to a far wider audience.最初只是作为欧洲市场驳回又如日本?收盘成对小型化、设计已经由通用汽车和拥抱向更广泛观众. As Vauxhall badged variants appear, the gulf between what constitutes a European and a Japanese citycar will quickly narrow.由于路上badged变种出现,贫富何谓citycar欧洲和日本将很快缩小. As a used buy the Wagon R+ makes a great deal of sense as long as you can get along with the looks.作为用来购买住宅+旅行车使得大量意义,只要你能谈得来的面貌. If you can?t, no amount of logic is going to sway you from something a bit more conventional, a concept with which the little Suzuki struggles to come to terms with.如果你能吗?笔,金额不摇你从逻辑是去一些比较传统的、铃木概念与小斗来计算.
HISTORY历史
The Wagon R+ was introduced in October 1997 in 1.0-litre form, its tiny four-cylinder engine generating 64bhp.<住宅+旅行车于1997年10月推出1.0公升的形式,它极四缸引擎发电机64bhp. The bodyshell was very square and upright, if not quite so brutally cubist as the Daihatsu Move.bodyshell很正派的广场,如果不是这么残酷的立体大发. The Suzuki really was one of the most micro of micro-MPVs, and UK buyers felt the car was perhaps a little too extreme to compete against established citycars such as the Ford Ka, the Fiat Cinquecento/Seicento and the SEAT Arosa.铃木真的是最微微mpvs,英国汽车及买家感到也许有点太极端竞争既定citycars如家福特、菲亚特cinquecento/seicentoarosa和所在地. Many buyers also underestimated Suzuki?s strength as a manufacturing concern.许多买家也低估铃木?作为制造业的实力. Available in GA and GL trim levels, the first-generation Wagon R+ was a strong offering that never reaped the success it deserved.刊物GA和GL的修剪层次第一代住宅+水车提供了强有力的成功,绝不应有利润. It received a 1.2 litre engine in August 1998 along with a very mild facelift.接到1.2公升引擎1998年8月改版随着一个非常温和.
The second-generation cars received more critical acclaim and remedied the stylistic excesses of the early model.第二代车接到更多的好评和纠正越权早期的文体模式. Launched in summer 2000, the newer car was a different proposition.在2000年夏季推出的新型汽车是一个不同的主张. Although the basic dimensions were unchanged, the look was more rounded off, mature and acceptable to the European eye.虽然基本层面均不变,更看四舍五入、成熟和接受欧洲眼科. The engine was changed to a 1.3-litre unit, which although only generating 75bhp, nonetheless did a good job of propelling the lightweight body.引擎改为1.3公升股,虽然只有75bhp发电、不过确实做好推进轻量级身体. This car was manufactured in Hungary, and spawned the General Motors offshoot, marketed in the UK as the Vauxhall Agila, albeit with a smaller engine.这车的制造厂商在匈牙利,并引起美国通用支脉,在英国销售的狂暴Agila外,尽管小引擎.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫
The first-generation cars are the ones that will be widely available for used buyers.第一代汽车是那些将广泛用来供买家. So what can you expect from one of these?那么你能指望从其中? It wouldn?t be overly demeaning to say a box on wheels, because that?s exactly how Suzuki?s designers set out to style the Wagon R+.它wouldn?笔过于看低说一盒车轮原因是什么?铃木收盘到底?收盘设计师上场了马车式住宅+. It?s a narrow, tall, wheeled box that holds as much internal area on as little floorspace as possible.?收盘狭窄,高楼大厦、轮式箱,内部面积达举行竣工面积少越好. Suzuki quickly realised, however, that sensible reasons were not the only ones that attracted new converts to Wagon R+ motoring.铃木变现快,但是,明智的原因不仅仅是吸引新住宅+驾驶货车折算. So it is that you could have your own version painted a lurid purple or order it with a variety of imaginative option packs.所以,你可以有自己的版本描绘了沮丧紫色或命令具有多种选择包想象力. These included mock-chrome for the grille, mirrors, roof rails and wheel covers as well as wood trim for the interior and - rather worryingly - for the exterior!这些包括模拟铬的门锁,镜子,车轮与钢轨屋顶复盖以及内政部、木材削而担忧换外观!
You didn?t have to make a style statement, of course; without all these dubious add-ons, the base GA model looked almost restrained in lighter colours.您雾化?笔都做出了风格声明,当然;没有这些可疑新增、镓示范基地显得几乎克制打火机颜色. It also came well equipped and full of handy features like cubby boxes, a ticket holder, a ?lights-on?它也来凑热闹精良、充满特色一样得心应手cubby盒,配架,?灯安? warning buzzer and a headlamp-levelling device.一、警告蜂前照灯-找平装置. The GL added electric power steering (just like an MGF), body-coloured bumpers, electric windows and mirrors, a retractable luggage cover, central locking and, believe it or not, a pull-out shopping basket that nestled under the passenger seat.加上电动助力转向化验(就像一个函数),车身颜色保险杠、电动窗、镜子、伸缩行李罩,并锁紧环,信不信由你,一拔出菜篮子,乘客座位下的怀抱.
As for safety, Suzuki did their best to impress; twin airbags, side-impact bars in the front doors and seat-belt pre-tensioners came on every car.至于安全性,铃木极力促使;双气袋,副作用影响酒吧的前门、安全带预张紧来到逢车. Having said that, there?s no denying the sensation of vulnerability some drivers may feel behind the wheel, due mostly to the car?s diminutive size.话虽如此,但?收盘不可否认的脆弱感,有些司机可能觉得背后车轮由于大部分的车?收盘朗声大笑. You just have to get used to it.你只要去习惯.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Wagon R+ prices have just dropped below £2,000 for an early car, with a 1997 R-registered 1.0 GA available for around £1,900 after a bit of haggling.旅行车住宅价格+刚刚降到二千英镑早日车与1997年的R可录1.0镓1900英镑左右后有点讨价还价. A more recent 1999 T-plated example will retail at just under £2,400.最近99年更笔镀零售业来说将接近2400英镑. If you?d like the slightly better equipped 1.0 GL model, a 1997 R-plate model would be around £2,100 and the final 1999 T-registered examples fetch £2,600.如果你?四像略胜配备1.0化验模式1997住宅板模型将与1999年的2100英镑左右笔注册例子卖到2600英镑. The first of the 1.2 litre cars go for £2,400 for a 1998 S-plated 1.2 GL manual or £2,500 for an automatic version.第一车走了12公升,为1998年的2400英镑镀二月一日星期六手册或自动版为2500英镑. A 1999 T-plate 1.2 GL would reach £2,600 for the manual car and £2,800 for the automatic.1999笔板二月一日星期六将达到2600英镑为2800英镑的手工和自动车.

Insurance for the 1.0-litre cars is Group 2, with all other models being classified as Group 3.保险为1.0升车2组,其他所有型号被列为第三组.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
The Wagon R+ is a pretty durable little car.+是一个漂亮的住宅旅行车小客车耐用. Neither the 1.0-litre or 1.2-litre cars are particularly adept at motorway work, so many have quite low mileages.既不1.0公升或1.2公升轿车尤其擅长高速公路工作,所以许多人相当低哩. That?s not to say they won?t have suffered much wear and tear: the twin demands of city driving and ferrying kids around is an acid test if ever there was one.为何?收盘谈不上获胜?笔蒙受很大损耗:双城市驾驶和接送孩子的要求是一块试金石,一旦周围有一个50. Check the interiors for signs of damage to fittings, rips or stains on the upholstery and damage in the load bay caused by bulky objects (the seat backs are rather vulnerable).检查内部装置损坏迹象,核糖或污渍和损坏的座垫湾负荷太重造成物体(座位靠背都比较脆弱). Check tyre wear and also the condition of the exhaust, and make sure all gears engage cleanly and do not jump out.检查轮胎磨损状况也废气、做到清廉,不从事一切齿轮跳出. Otherwise insist on a service record and buy with confidence.否则硬要一个服务记录和购买信心.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx based on a 1998 1.0-litre Wagon R+) The Suzuki Wagon R+ is the sort of car you could quite happily drive about in, revelling in its modest thirst and low upfront price, but still have a gnawing doubt in your mind that should something go pop you?d pay through the nose for it.(大约1998基于1.0升旅行车住宅+)+铃木旅行车住宅是那种你可以很愉快地驾驶汽车在约、陶醉在自己的微薄之渴笔,低价格、但仍有疑问啃你应该知道你有走流行?四是通过鼻子对付它. Is that the case?是否如此? Well, yes and no.不错,没有. Certain items are on the pricey side, items such as an alternator at around £375, a starter motor at £290 and an exhaust at nearly £400.贵方对某些项目,这些项目作为发电机375英镑左右,一、起动马达时排气将近290英镑400英镑. Other bits aren?t too bad at all.其它位元西哈莫尼?笔太差. A new clutch assembly is about £110, a new radiator £195, one of those bug-eyed headlamps is around £95 and front brake pads are about £55 a pair.新约离合器组装110英镑、195英镑的新散热器,其中的飞虫眼睛大灯英镑左右刹车皮阵线约有95和55英镑一双. It?s just something to factor into the equation when you compare the Wagon R+ with rivals.?收盘只是一些因素计算在内,只要拿车+住宅与对手.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
Very much a game of two halves.非常游戏两半. The early 1.0-litre and 1.2-litre Wagon R+ models are at home in the urban environment, but struggle on major roads.早期1.0公升和1.2公升水车住宅+型号在家的城市环境,但在主要道路的斗争. The second-generation 1.3-litre model is far more refined and accomplished, and makes longer journeys no great hardship.二代130公升模型更为精细完成,旅途不会再作很大困难. All manual models have crisp, light gearchanges, although the automatic gearbox exacts a stiff penalty on the already modest performance and should only really be specified if a good proportion of your time is going to be spent nose-to-tail.所有型号都手册脆、轻gearchanges,虽然自动变速箱严酷的严厉惩罚,对已经很谦虚的表现,应该只指定一个很好的比例,如果你的时间是如何运用鼻子到尾巴. Handling is predictably roly-poly, but roadholding is pretty good.装卸料不倒翁,但是roadholding很不错. Much like the old Citroen 2CV, the upstanding Wagon R+ will lean over a very long way before it starts to slide.很像旧2cv雪铁龙、<五四运动旅行车将住宅+精益需要一段很长的路,才开始下滑. Few owners will subject their cars to such tactics, but its good to know that due to it?s Weeble-like tendencies, the Wagon R+ might wobble but it won?t fall down.少数业主受汽车等战术,但由于其好的知道吗?收盘weeble状倾向住宅的旅行车+摆动但却可能获胜?笔摔下. The first-generation cars are noisy, with the 1.0-litre models making normal conversation impossible above 60mph.第一代车嘈杂,与1.0公升型号的谈话无法进行正常60mph以上. The 1.3-litre cars are predictably better, with good engine, if not wind, soundproofing.130公升车料较好,具有良好的引擎,如果没有风,隔音.
OVERALL 总体
Unless you plan to use the car solely for short-distance work in the urban sprawl and crawl, try to stretch for a 1.2-litre model.除非你计划用专供汽车短距离自由泳和工作在城市蔓延,设法舒展了1.2公升的模式. The added flexibility makes driving far easier.加上弹性使得驾驶更容易. You may have to search quite hard to find the car you like, as the Wagon R+ is quite rare and there were some styling accessories of distinctly dubious appeal around.你可能很难找到有相当搜寻你喜欢的轿车,作为旅行车住宅+甚为罕见,有鲜明的造型配件暧昧上诉左右. If you can find a nearly new 1.3-litre second-generation car, take it for a test drive.如果你可以找到一个新的近130万公升的第二代车,是否可以申请驾驶考试. They?re genuinely good fun, and you may become a convert.他们?重新真正好玩,你也可以成为转化. And the looks?而看似? Well, if you?re on the inside?好吧,如果你?再上里?
