VOLKSWAGEN GOLF GTI MK3 (1992-1997)大众高尔夫GTI组指示器(1992-1997)
When most enthusiasts consider the Golf GTi, they make a mental division.最喜爱高尔夫GTI组审议时,他们的心理师进行. The MK1 and Mk2 cars were the ones that established the GTi legend, and the Mk3 versions represented the GTi sinking into comfy middle age.MK2在车上的mk1和那些既定GTI学院传说代表和落点版本GTI学院下沉中年舒服. For the most part, this is pretty accurate, but Volkswagen seem to have realised that neglecting the family jewels in this manner hasn?t done them too many favours and is busy rebuilding the GTi legacy.在大多数情况下,这是相当准确、但大众似乎已经意识到忽视这种方式独具特色传家宝?笔做太偏、忙于重建GTI学院遗产. As used propositions, it?s difficult to fault the Mk 3 cars.由于采用主张?收盘难故障的队三月汽车. Bigger, better built and with less of a tyre smoking image, they make a good deal of sense both to those who still have a glint in their eye and the large proportion who simply want a well specified Volkswagen Golf.更大,更好建成一个轮胎少吸烟形象他们做出了不少社会人士均感仍有闪烁的眼睛和大比例的人只想一个特定福士高尔夫球.
HISTORY历史
TheMk3 Golf arrived in 1992, and was promptly christened 'Car of the Year' but few drivers raved over its dynamic qualities largely because it was bigger, safer and heavier.themk3高尔夫球抵达1992年被及时命名的轿车的年',但很少超过妄言司机素质很大程度上是因为它的动态大,安全和繁重. Despite that curvaceous body being very slippery, with a drag factor between 0.30 and 0.33, it was very heavy.尽管身体十分湿滑,山川秀美,有阻力系数0.30和0.33之间,这是很重的. The original GTi weighed 844 kg, and the MK3 was up to 1032 kg.但GTI原先重达844公斤,1032年达到了落点公斤. The GTi version?s power-to weight ratio had slipped from 133 bhp per ton to 113.GTI学院版本?收盘功率重量比率已下降到每吨从133到113BHP公司. That translated into a top speed of 124 mph and a so-so 0-60 mph time of 8.7 seconds - surprising, as the GTi now had a larger 2.0-litre engine that cranked out 115bhp.这译成最高时速达124主机、马马虎虎0~60主机八点七秒时间--奇怪但GTI现在有一个较大的2.0公升引擎,115bhp扩音器出来.
Few doubted that it did look the part, however, with colour-coded two-bar grille, black wheelarches and bumper extension, rear spoiler, tinted rear light clusters, 6.5Jxl 5 in Long Beach alloys and twin exhaust pipes.几疑它的样子,不过,颜色两杆门锁、保险杠、黑色wheelarches扩建后排破坏者,茶色后方轻簇,6.5jxl5长滩双胞胎排气管和合金. Inside came sports seats, electric windows, on board computer and height-adjustable sports steering wheel.车厢来到体育座位,电动窗,车上电脑及高度可调运动方向盘. Handling-wise it was a lot softer and more refined.处理上有很多柔软、更精致. It was effectively a modified Mk2 set-up with standard power steering.据有效改良MK2在设置标准助力转向. From September 1992 came split rear seats and, a year later, passenger seat height adjustment formed part of the package.从1992年9月来到分割后座,一年后,乘客座位高度调整方案的一部分. October 1994 was safety month, as ABS brakes, driver's airbag and immobiliser were included -- but a sunroof became a cost option.1994年10月是安全月,作为ABS的刹车司机的安全气囊、帕萨特包括--但天窗成了成本选择. July 1995 saw the arrival of rounded side indicators and a bee sting aerial.1995年7月抵达看到四舍五入方指标和蜜蜂螫空中.
May 1996 marked the 20th anniversary of the GTi, hence the 600-unit limited-edition Anniversary, with red alloys and traditional golf ball gearknob.1996年5月20周年纪念GTI学院,因此,600股限量周年红色球gearknob合金和传统高尔夫球. King of the limited editions though was the Colour Concept, in April 1995, available in yellow, red, blue or green, with matching leather Recaros, silver-faced instruments and 6.5 in Solitude alloys.国王虽然是有限的版本颜色概念,1995年4月,现有黄色、红色、蓝色或绿色,选配皮革recaros、银合金面临文书和6.5孤寂. The eight-valve was finally deleted in November 1997.八瓣,终于在1997年11月删除.
Only twenty-four months after the 2.0-litre 8-valve GTi failed to create a favourable impression with GTi die-hards, Volkswagen decided that another 16-valve version was required.仅24个月之后,2.0公升八瓣GTI组未能创造有利的印象GTI组死硬分子,福士决定另外16气门版本. It had worked for the Mk 2, so reason dictated that such a recipe would also work for the Mk 3 and so in January 1993 this car duly arrived.它为队2出于这个原因,所以也替方队在3日和1993年1月正式抵达这个车. Beneath the familiar 16 valve head was the 2.0-litre unit, which produced 150 bhp at 6000 rpm.熟悉阀头下方是1916年的2.0公升股,BHP公司在6000年生产150RPM的. Acceleration improved, which meant that 60 mph arrived in around eight seconds.加速改进,这意味着在1960年左右抵达主机8秒. Top speed was a punchy 134 mph.最高时速是134贴主机. The five-speed gearbox was a carry over from the GTi, as was the suspension -- unfortunately.五是结转速度变速箱来自GTI如受--可惜. So it was secure, safe, but a bit roly-poly, and still not enough fun.所以稳妥、安全,而且有点不倒翁,还不够好玩. Interestingly, it came with the traction control system, as used on the VR6, which meant that it worked with the ABS system to eliminate torque steer (weaving as you bury the throttle) by monitoring the speed of the driving wheels.有趣的是,它是随牵引控制系统,用来作为对vr6,这意味着它与ABS系统消除转矩督导(编织你埋葬油门)监测速度驱动车轮.
Standard specification was pretty much as the 8-valve, plus Monte Carlo alloys, bee sting aerial with amplifier, plus a brake lining wear indicator.标准规格是不相上下的八瓣,加上蒙特卡罗合金、蜂螫空中与放大器,另加制动器衬磨损标志. September 1993 heralded the arrival of passenger seat height adjustment, as the five-door model got rear electric windows.1993年9月的到来,预示着乘客座位高度调整,由于五门电动模型得到后方窗户. For October 1994, a driver's airbag and engine immobiliser were fired.1094年司机的安全气囊和发动机防盗吐着火舌. July 1995 saw the arrival of those neat rounded wing-mounted indicators.1995年7月抵达看到那些整齐四舍五入豪登指标. May 1996 -- the GTi?s 20th anniversary year -- saw the launch of the special edition Anniversary.1996年5月--但GTI?今年20周年的--看见周年推出的专辑. Just 150 were imported in three- and five door body styles, at a cost of £16,995 and £11,425, respectively.仅1500年进口三、五门体风格,费用16995英镑和11425英镑,分别. They had red alloy wheels, a Sportsline interior trim, red bumper stripes and the iconic golf ball gearknob.他们红色合金轮子,sportsline内政部修剪、红色条纹和碰碰高尔夫球球gearknob图标. This model was also discontinued in November 1997 to make way for the Mk 4.这种模式也中断1997年11月让路给队4.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The Mk3 GTi is a car that is built to last, good to drive and offers safe and solid motoring for not too much money.但GTI的一例即是建成以汽车上、安全驾驶,并提供良好的驾驶和固体不太多钱. They offer a civilised alternative to many other hot hatches and are usually worth more second-hand than most rivals.它们提供许多新的文明替代其它热点舱口通常更值得二手高于大多数竞争对手. You're paying for the Volkswagen name and reputation to some extent, but don't forget that though a Golf costs a bit more than some rivals, it will equally be worth more and probably be in better condition when the time comes for you to sell it on.你付出的名字和声誉福士某种程度上但别忘了,虽然有点成本高尔夫球对手多一些,也同样值得更多更好的条件和可能在适当时候,就卖给你. Just don?t expect a sports car in the mould of a Peugeot 306GTi.刚刚鲍思?笔指望跑车在标致306gti一个模具.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Prices for an 8-valve Mk3 GTi start at around £2,200 on a 1994 L plate, with five-door versions commanding around £100 more.价格为8阀指示器但GTI2200英镑左右就开始了1994公升板块五门版本指挥100多英镑左右. Opt instead for the more desirable 16-valve version and you?ll need to stump up around £3,000 for a tidy 1996 N plated three door or £3,100 for a five door model.而选择了较为理想的16阀门版本,你呢?当地需要方寸起来了3000英镑左右整齐氮镀三大门1996年为3100英镑,或一门五个示范.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
The Golf has a strong reputation for reliability, but it still has a few areas that need to be checked carefully.高尔夫球有浓厚的名声可靠性但仍有少数地方需要加以仔细检查. One is the manual gearbox in high-mileage cars.一是手册变速箱高里程车. These can have worn bearings which need expensive repairs ?这其中有需要昂贵轴承磨损修理? if there's a lot of noise from the gearbox, get it checked.如果有大量的噪音变速箱,得到遏制.
Corrosion is rare on a Golf, which speaks volumes for Volkswagen's rustproofing methods and the quality of the steel it uses.高尔夫球是一项难得的腐蚀,这说明大众的方法和质量rustproofing钢用. A GTi with rust should scream "badly repaired accident damage" at you.但GTI应该尖叫了锈"不好修理事故损坏"你. Steer well clear, as a bent chassis will probably have caused misaligned panels and subsequent corrosion.避开,一心为底盘可能会造成腐蚀和后来失调板. With Mk IV cars, consider the premium you are paying and ask yourself whether a used SEAT or Skoda, which share similar Volkswagen Group underpinnings, may be better value.四队同车,你考虑保费缴纳,想想自己是否有座位或使用小轿车,依据大众汽车集团有着相似,可能会有更好的价值.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx based on a 1994 Golf GTI 2.0 8v Ex Vat) An exhaust system is about £85.(大约1994高尔夫GTI组2.0基于赫利恩增值税)排气系统英镑约85. A clutch assembly will be around £75 and a new catalyst will be around £60.一英镑左右离合器大会将于75和新催化剂将左右英镑60. An alternator should be close to £50.一要贴近英镑发电机50.
Brake pads front and rear are about £45 and £33, respectively.刹车皮前方和后方约45英镑,英镑33元. A replacement headlamp is close to £65.更换前照灯接近英镑65. A windscreen should be in the region of £90.应当在该地区的挡风玻璃,英镑90. Major and minor services are around £75 and £35 respectively.大大小小的服务是75英镑1935年英镑左右.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
The Golf?s reputation as the car that would corner on three wheels with steering that danced in your hands and a chassis that made the keen driver?s eyes light up is a bit of ancient history now.高尔夫球?收盘美誉的角落三个轮子的汽车,将与督导,并在你们手中舞动了底盘,使热衷司机?收盘眼睛发亮,现在是有点古代史. The Golf GTi is a far more urbane creature, looking disdainfully at such juvenile antics.高尔夫球是一种更为彬彬有礼但GTI动物,神情不屑于这样的少年点滴. Even the 2.0 16v GTi models are smooth, refined and syrupy, with none of the verve of old models.但GTI型号更是顺利的2.016v、精、syrupy,没有充沛的旧模式. Many drivers will lament this metamorphosis, and turn to French or Japanese rivals instead, but for many others it will be a significant benefit.许多司机感叹这个变态,转到法国或日本对手反而但许多人将会带来重大利益. A Mk3 Golf GTi really does feel like an equivalent year Passat inside ?高尔夫GTI组一个落点确实喜欢相等帕萨特一年内? it?s only when you glance over your shoulder that you realise that you?re in a family hatchback.?收盘时仅比你一眼,你知道你的肩膀吧?再一个家庭hatchback.
OVERALL 总体
If you?re after the definitive hot hatch, buying a Mk3 Golf GTi may well leave you with the impression that Volkswagen has traded rather cynically on the cachet of the GTi badge.如果你?通用舱口后重新热、买高尔夫GTI组落点可能留给你的印象是相当玩世不恭的买卖已建成投产的GTI组纪念徽章. Others do ten-tenths cornering a good deal more convincingly than the slightly tubby Golf.别人做十个成垄断了大量有说服力比略有筒形高尔夫球. If, on the other hand, you?re looking for an impeccably built and classically presentable hatch, the Golf GTi has few rivals.如果,在另一方面,你呢?重新找一个像样成绩斐然建成典型舱口,高尔夫GTI组的几个对手已经. It may no longer be in the first flush of youth, but we?ve still got a soft spot for this Golf GTi.它可能不再是冲在第一青年但我们?维生素E还有搭这个高尔夫GTI组.
