The Volkswagen Polo has never enjoyed the cult status of the Golf, but has nonetheless been a major seller in the UK for over twenty years.福士马球的地位从未享受邪教高尔夫球、但尽管如此,在英国的一个主要卖主二十多年. Following the trend set by the Golf, it evolved from very simple beginnings to become one of the most sophisticated offerings in its class.跟潮流由高尔夫、它从简单的开始成为世界上最先进的阶级祭品. This Polo, launched in 1999, effectively bridges the gap between citycars of the Volkswagen Lupo class, and premium family hatchbacks like the Golf.这个马球,在1999年推出,有力桥梁的差距citycarslupo大众级家庭厢型车及地价像高尔夫球. In many ways it seems to occupy the slot once held by the Golf.在许多方面似乎一度占据槽所持高尔夫球. Does paying big money for such a small car make sense in the used market, or is the Polo an unremarkable range filler?没有钱付大感做出这么小的车用市场或者是一个不起眼的马球填料?
HISTORY历史
The Polo has been a fixture in the lower half of Britain?s top ten best sellers for nearly two decades now, so we?ve grown accustomed to its charms.沙巴已固定下半年英国?收盘十大畅销近二十年,所以我们?见怪不怪其味魅力. Once the preserve of middle-class student girls, the Polo went upmarket, resulting in the model seen here.一旦保存中产阶级学生女孩,孛来到高档,造成示范看到这里. Although it looks broadly similar to its predecessor, the differences are widespread.虽然看起来大致相同942的差别是普遍存在. The entire bodyshell was revised to provide better accident protection and to reduce interior noise.整个bodyshell修改为提供更好的保护,减少事故室内噪音. It is fully galvanised, and altogether the current model only shares 40% of its componentry with the previous iteration.它充分镀锌,目前总共有40%的份额只有模型部件与先前迭代. Saloon and estate models were available for those who wanted something a little different, although these are generally in less demand.房地产和型号可供那些想些比较不一样,虽然这些需求普遍较低.
Two new engines were also made available upon launch in late 1999, a three-cylinder 1.4-litre turbo-diesel and a 1.6-litre 125bhp unit to power the range-topping GTi.两个新引擎也可于1999年底推出后,3缸1.4-升涡轮柴油和1.6公升125bhp股力量的距离超过GTI组. At the 1999 launch, these two new engines slotted in alongside another diesel and four petrol units.在1999年推出的两个新引擎缝在另一起汽油柴油和4个单位. The other diesel engine was the familiar 1.9-litre 64bhp turbo diesel, whilst the petrol alternatives included a 50bhp 1.0-litre and 60bhp, 75bhp and 100bhp16v versions of the 1.4-litre power unit.另一方面是熟悉柴油机1.9公升64bhp柴油涡轮、虽然汽油替代品包括50bhp1.0公升60bhp和,75bhp和100bhp16v版本1.4公升容量机组. Trim levels ran from E through S, SE, 16v and GTi.从五浪级冉透过收盘,硒,16v和GTI组.
A completely revised Polo range, based on the same advanced floorpan as the Skoda Fabia was unveiled at the end of 2001, going on sale in early 2002.修改马球完全程,基于同样先进的小轿车fabiafloorpan揭幕截至2001年底,走在2002年初发售.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
Volkswagen pulled off a very clever trick with the Polo.福士拉过一个非常聪明的孛伎俩. Whereas before there was a temptation for lower-order Polo buyers to trade down to the smaller Lupo citycar, while customers of plusher variants might have been tempted to spend the extra and get a Golf, with this Polo they didn?t have to.以前有人诱惑下命令孛贸易买家到lupocitycar较小,而客户车窗变异曾被诱惑而获得额外花费高尔夫、这个马球他们雾化?有笔. Wherever you look, you'll find the better aspects of the Golf and the Lupo.你看哪里歌坛方面更好高尔夫球和lupo. Inside, the best of both combination continues.洞内,两头组合继续. In essence, the dashboard is Lupo-derived, with the same silver 'screwed-on' bezels surrounding the instrument dials, though here, they're protected from sunlight by a single cowling rather than individual covers.从本质上讲,是仪表lupo源,用同样银色的螺纹-『bezels围绕拨号工具,虽然这里他们不受阳光一罩,而非个别复盖. Otherwise, it's exactly as you'll find in the smaller car - which means heater controls set rather low to your left but, on a more positive note, space for a proper lockable glovebox and room for the optional satellite navigation system.否则这正如歌坛的小停车场就是炉管你左一套比较低,但在更积极、妥善加锁手套空间和余地择卫星导航系统.
The quality feel of the interior however, is all MkIV Golf: check out the door trims with their chromed handles, the gear knob, the beautifully damped grab handles and the optional sunroof rotary control.优质的内部感觉却是所有高尔夫球mkiv:看看他们的门斩铬处理,齿轮旋钮、抓斗上装阻尼旋转控制柄及择天窗. More significantly, you notice the resemblance in the quality and texture of the plastics used and in the bulletproof build quality.更有意义的是,你看,在品质和质地相似的塑料,在使用、防弹建设质量. The more comfortable seats are borrowed from the Golf too - which means they come with the option of incorporated side airbags to complement the twin front 'bags supplied as standard.更舒适的座位太借用高尔夫球-即来选择纳入气袋配合双方门前的供应袋为标准. Outside, other common touches include razor-thin shutlines and fully galvanised body panels.外,其他包括共同触及微弱shutlines瘦体全面镀锌板.
Nice touches common to all Polos include brighter headlamps with 20% more power and body-coloured bumpers with neat parking nudge strips.尼斯触及所有公用polos包括光明大灯功率20%以上,体色保险杠推着整齐停车. A full-length fabric electric 'Open Air' roof is an appealing option.全长面料电气'露天的屋顶是很有吸引力. Unfortunately, there's still no sign of deadlocks - though there is an electronic immobiliser.不幸的是,仍有迹象僵局,虽然有一个电子锁. On the safety front, Volkswagen included a stronger passenger cell than was found on previous models, claiming big improvements in crash test performance as a result.在安全方面,有较强的客运福士发现电池比以前型号自称大改善碰撞试验成绩.
Clothing that structure are galvanised body panels.衣着类结构体镀锌板. Volkswagen had to renew the machinery that stamped out the old Polo body panels, so decided it might as well make some metal changes to create a smoother look.福士已更新旧机器,杜绝身体马球小组所以决定不如作一些改变金属营造顺畅看看. This is most noticeable at the rear, where the number plate is recessed into the bumper rather than sitting proud on a tailgate now flanked by all-red lamps.这是最引人注目的后方凡入肚保险杠车牌,而非现在坐在两旁栏板骄傲了全红灯.

Gaze down at the fascia and it feels Lupo-like, but on the move the ride quality is superb, even in the base models.凝视脚下的筋膜和失落lupo样,但乔迁打起精神质量精湛,即使在基地模式. Refinement is good as well, although the 1.9-litre diesel likes to give itself a cacophonous round of applause on start up.细化是好的也是虽然1.9公升的柴油给自己一个喜欢喧哗掌声月启动. The three-cylinder SE TDi model and 75bhp 1.4 S Polo are probably the pick of the range, although the GTi deserves special mention.3缸TDI的示范和硒75bhp四月一日收盘马球大概尖子的射程,虽然GTI学院特别值得一提.

With sprinting ability to comfortably outdrag a 2.0-litre MkIV Golf GTi, the Polo is one of the better cars in the range, if not quite as grin-inducing as a Ford Fiesta or a Toyota Yaris.同一个冲刺能力从容outdrag2.0公升mkiv高尔夫GTI组、沙巴是一个好车的射程,如果不是像露齿诱导或节日作为福特丰田yaris.
