What?s more, Audi responded by giving the Avant additional prestige by launching the range-topping RS4 model solely in this body style, following a trend established by the Porsche developed Audi RS2 super estate.什么?收盘多奥迪回应给尴额外发射射程威望-顶单在本机构酰胺示范风继趋势确立的保时捷奥迪乳超级地产开发.

The A4 Avant range was launched a year after its saloon counterpart back in March 1996 to replace the 80 and 90-series cars.A4规定的幅度还会推出一年后的1996年3月回房对口取代80和90系列汽车. This marked an enormous step forward in terms of both quality and design complexity for Audi and the company managed to catch main rivals BMW and Mercedes on the hop.这标志着向前迈出了一大步,在质和设计复杂和奥迪公司管理赶上主要竞争对手宝马、奔驰在合. With a range consisting of 1.6, 1.8, 1.8 turbo, 2.6, 2.8, 2.8 quattro petrol models, 1.9TDI 90bhp, and both front wheel drive and quattro versions with the 110bhp TDI diesel engine there was a decent selection available.一系列包含160180180涡轮2.62.82.8汽油型号慑人,1.9tdi90bhp,而前轮驱动、TDI的慑人版本与110bhp柴油机加上不错的选择.

The so-called ?1998?所谓?一九九八年? models arrived in September 1997 and changes centred mainly on equipment upgrades and one new engine.1997年9月到达模范和变化,主要集中在设备更新和新引擎之一. All A4s now came with alloy wheels and the new 30-valve A4 2.4 replaced the old A4 2.6.现在手中所有a4s新合金车轮和30气门的A4四月二日取代旧的A42.6. The performance S4 Avant was launched at the end of 1998.四尴表现在1998年年底推出.

WHAT YOU GET  什么才叫
An advanced front or four-wheel drive chassis; elegant, well-proportioned looks, superb build-quality and, so far, good reliability.战线先进或四轮驱动底盘;高雅、善意的比重看,精湛的建造质量,到目前为止,可靠性好. The diesels are remarkably economical, the petrol 1.6s a bit on the slow side and the 1.8 turbos understated motorway flyers.柴油还真节约、汽油1.6s就有点缓慢和180高速公路传单turbos低估. These cars are an intelligent buy as well as a desirable one.这些车购买以及智能可取.

Equipment levels are relatively high (for a German vehicle at least) and you'll find that most cars have the superior SE spec.装备水平比较高(至少对德国车),你就会发现,大部分车都优于硒光谱. An A4 can be optioned even further though, so don't be surprised to find air-conditioning, leather trim, remote central locking and rear electric windows in many cars.正确选择一个能更进一步的A4虽然如此,不难空调、皮革修剪、中央锁、电动窗后方偏僻许多汽车. Don?t expect Volvo-sized lugging ability, but having said that, the Avants are a step above cars like the Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon when it comes to hauling the goods and there loading bay is a decent shape.鲍思?沃尔沃预计笔型测井能力,但话说回来,avants一步以上的车都是像罗蜜欧156sportwagon说到托运的货物装上一个象样湾形状.

WHAT YOU PAY  您付出
A well looked after A4 Avant 1.6 will start at around £3,500 for a 1996 N plated example, with a 1997 P plated SE variant priced at around £4,400 and a post-facelift January 1999 model commanding around £6,000.一个很好照顾的A4尴将于六月一日左右,为1996英镑3500氮镀例如与1997磷镀硒变种售价约为4400英镑,研究生1999年1月改版示范指挥6000英镑左右. By far the most popular of the four cylinder cars are the ones fitted with the 1.8T engine, and these start at around £4,100 on a 1996 N plate with the desirable Sport trim costing £6,000 for a 1998 R plated version.迄今最受欢迎的车就是四汽缸的装有发动机的1/2,而这些开始对大约1996英镑4100氮与板块运动减肥最好耗资6000英镑为1998住宅镀版本. A late 2001 Y plated edition would still be retail at around £10,300.肽Y镀了2001年末仍会零售版10300英镑左右.

The six cylinder cars are well worth looking for, the 2.4 and 2.8-litre models probably being the pick of the bunch.6缸车是很值得研究,2.4和2.8公升型号大概是尖子目次. The 2.4-litre Avant opens at around £5,600 on a 1997 R-plate, whilst a decent 2.8SE automatic will be worth around £6,000 for the same 1997 R plate.2.4公升尴开幕5600英镑左右就1997住宅板块、虽然象样2.8se自动将价值6000英镑左右为同一板块1997年住宅.

The diesels are solid cars, although the 90bhp car can struggle for breath with a full load.有坚实的柴油车,虽然车可以90bhp斗争呼吸满载. A 110bhp TDI SE starts at around £4,700 on a 1996 N plate whilst the more powerful 115bhp versions start at £9,500 in SE trim on a 2000 V plate.硒开始了TDI的110bhp47000英镑左右,而在1996年更强大115bhp氮板块版本英镑9500年开始对2000年第五盘硒修剪. The 2.5TDI diesel is a superb engine, capable of flinging an A4 up the road with real verve.2.5tdi,是高超的柴油发动机,能flinging一个真正具有充沛的A4公路起来. Track one of these down and you?ll need at least £7,000 for a 1998 R registered example.跟踪下来,你就是其中之一?当地至少需要7000英镑的住宅登记为1998例.

The sporty S4 Avant and RS4 Avant cars appeal to enthusiast owners and are a specialised proposition.四、潇洒的尴尴酰胺车车主和爱好者都呼吁一个专门命题.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR  寻找什么
You'll do well to find anything notable here.您找到什么好显这里. Check the service books, especially with Quattros and/or diesels as repairs will be frighteningly expensive if there's major transmission or turbocharger trouble that the warranty doesn't cover.检查服务书籍尤其quattros和/或柴油作为修理将有恐吓昂贵的大型涡轮增压器故障,发射或保修范围不包括. Corrosion is simply not an issue with Audis and another reason why resale values are high.腐蚀根本不是一个问题与奥迪、转售价值高的另一个原因. Tyre wear can be a problem on S4 and RS4 versions.轮胎磨损问题就可以派酰胺版本. Uneven wear on the tyres may mean that the suspension is out of alignment.在轮胎磨损不均匀可能意味着暂停出路线. This can be caused by enthusiastic track day kerb-hopping.这可以引起热烈轨道天缘跳.

REPLACEMENT PARTS  替换零件
(approx based on an M-reg A4 1.8 Avant with air con) A clutch assembly kit will be around £185 and a exhaust system (without catalyst) could be about £225.(大约基于米的A4再生空气行骗尴八月一日)将离合器装配套和185英镑左右排气系统(无催化剂)能约225英镑. An alternator should be close to £100 and a radiator around £130.一个发电机应接近100英镑和130英镑左右的散热器.

ON THE ROAD  在路上
The chassis set up is biased towards security and control, and the ride is a good deal firmer than those who habitually buy estate cars may expect.底盘设置偏重安全和控制是一个很好的协议,打起精神坚挺比惯于买屋车可以预期. Wet or dry, the chassis grips supremely well, inspiring confidence with its steering sensitivity and elastic ability to change direction even after you've committed yourself to another course.潮湿或干燥,底盘正视道出那么启发信心有能力与督导敏感性和弹性,甚至改变方向后的另一个你自己犯下场. The quattro four wheel drive versions give an added level of traction which comes in handy if you?re well loaded up.慑人的四轮驱动版本中作出补充进来的牵引得心应手,如果你?重新装好了. The diesel cars are well worth a look, with the 2.5TDi Avants being especially impressive.柴油车是很值得看,特别是与2.5tdiavants印象.

It helps, too, that the driving position is also almost faultless, thanks to a low-set dashboard and a height and reach-adjustable steering wheel, banishing the feeling you got in previous Audis that you were sitting at the bottom of a pit.它有助于,这种主动地位也几乎无可挑剔,由于低载、仪表板、高达可调方向盘放逐的感觉你说你在以往奥迪坐在坑底部.

Of course, if you?re serious about driving, you?ll want to check out the S4 and RS4 models.当然,如果你?重新拉紧驱动,你呢?想看看当地派酰胺型号. With 265 or 380bhp respectively and four-wheel drive with which to deploy it, these are consummate all-weather autobahn stormers.分别以265和380bhp或四轮驱动与部署,这些都是身怀全天候stormers高速公路. Capable of putting the wind up a Porsche 911, these truly are cars for all seasons.能够把风能保时捷911起,所有这些车都是真正来临.

OVERALL  总体
The Audi A4 Avant has always made a sensible used buy.奥迪A4规定的尴一向用来买了理智. With a very mild depreciation curve, it?s not a car you?re going to lose your shirt on.以非常温和贬值曲线?收盘没有一辆车吗?再度前往丢衫. With renowned engineering, a prestigious badge and a level of utility that?s always in demand, the Avant is a very practical ownership proposition.著名工程、有威望、有水平的实用徽章?收盘始终需求巧妙的是一个非常现实的所有权主张. The pick of the range are probably the 1.8T, 2.8 and 2.5TDi models but it genuinely is difficult to put a foot wrong.尖子幅度大概是1/2,2.8和2.5tdi型号但却难以真正付诸踏错.
