FIAT MAREA (1997 - 2003)菲亚特marea(1997至2003年)
Look long and hard at a picture of a Fiat Marea.看在照片前驻足细看了菲亚特marea. Do you recognise it?你知道吗? Most won?t and this represents something of a shame, not least for Fiat who have been trying to sell the Marea in the UK since 1997.多数获胜?笔的耻辱,这是一件,菲亚特至少不曾被marea试图出售自1997年在英国. Any Fiat larger than a Tipo has tended to be eyed with considerable suspicion by the UK car buying populace.菲亚特大于任何一个智慧大有向睡眼惺忪相当怀疑的英国民众购车. Sure, the Italian company can make cheap and cheerful models, and with the Coupe can now build decent sporty cars, but we remain unconvinced about anything mid-sized or larger that hails from Turin.当然,意大利公司可以廉价而开朗型号而现在可以把象样的采伐潇洒车但我们仍不天南地北中型或较大,来自都灵. It?s a suspicion that should have been laid to rest some time ago.?收盘怀疑应该已经奠定休息一段时间. This lack of confidence is also something that used buyers can exploit to their considerable advantage.这也是缺乏信心,买家可以使用自己开发了相当的优势. The fact that the Marea has never really caught on in the UK means one sure thing.事实上,从来没有真正marea月在英国被捕就是一个肯定的事情. A current-era Fiat with 1970s era depreciation, or put another way, a virtually new car going for a song.电流时代与1970年代菲亚特贬值,或者换句话说,一个新的小汽车几乎一首歌. Suddenly the Marea looks a whole lot more appealing.突然marea看起来一大堆更具吸引力.
HISTORY历史
Unpopular as the Marea has proved, it would still win by a landslide if a popularity contest were organised against its predecessor, the Tempra.不受欢迎的marea证明、它将仍然赢得了压倒性若举办大赛对普及942tempra的. Here was the car that pretty much nailed the lid down on the Marea?s chances of sales success.这里说的是车不相上下钉的盖子击marea?成功销售的机会. The Tempra contained every stereotype that we like to attach to larger Fiats.tempra所载的刻板印象,我们要重视每一个较大议. Underpowered, plasticky and awkwardly styled, with a weak image and peppercorn residuals, the Tempra was one of the few new cars that could justifiably be called a disaster.低估,而硬生生plasticky摆开,以弱形象和peppercorn残值,tempra是少数的新车,可以名正言顺称得上一场灾难.
Launched in March 1997, the Marea didn?t have to work too hard to outshine its forebear.发起于1997年3月marea雾化?笔要工作太辛苦了脱颖而出世祖. Perhaps because the public were unable to grasp the sheer volume of improvements made over the Tempra, the Marea was tarred with the same brush.或许是因为公众无法掌握流窜的改善做出了tempra,marea被一伙用同样的画笔. Based on a stretched version of the Fiat Bravo/Brava chassis, the Marea was almost as big as a Mondeo/Vectra, yet prices were more akin to Focus/Astra.基于强版菲亚特1939/布拉瓦底盘,marea差不多一样大了蒙迪欧/vectra,但是价格更接近重心/astra. Available with a range of six engines and in either a four-door saloon or five-door estate (the ?Weekend? in Fiat parlance), the Marea range offers a wide choice.可与各种发动机和两种6四、五门球馆门地产(?周末?在菲亚特提法)marea提供了多种选择的范围.
March 1999 saw the introduction of Fiat?s excellent JTD direct injection diesel engines to the Marea range.1999年3月推出菲亚特看到?直喷式柴油发动机的出色JTd的marea的射程. Shared with Alfa Romeo, this engine brings sporty performance to the diesel realm.分享蜜,这对柴油发动机性能带来潇洒境界. Real power lovers will hanker after the 2.0-litre 20v engine, which is shared with the Fiat Coupe and was also uprated to 155 bhp at this point.实权迷热中的2.0升20V条引擎这是同菲亚特采伐和155BHP公司还为新型干法此时. At the same time as these engines appeared, Fiat took the opportunity to enhance the standard trim levels across the range.这些引擎在同一时间出现,菲亚特借机提高标准笔挺的层面广泛.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫
The Marea is a good looking, well equipped and tightly priced car.marea是好看的,装备精良,紧紧门票车. With its bulbous styling and unfortunate image, it?s tempting to dismiss the Marea as one of those ?tries too hard?其造型、铜铃不幸形象吗?收盘诱人解雇那些marea之一?试图太辛苦? cars, but that would be doing it a disservice.轿车,但会做对不起. Still, the perception of a big, friendly but slightly stupid dog lasts until the moment you get in. The Marea seems genuinely well-built and quietly competent.但是,知觉一大步但稍微笨狗友直至你取笑的一刻似乎真的好marea建成并悄悄主管.
The dash materials, though unlikely to trouble Audi?s buyers, are a long way from the cheap, rattling yoghurt-pot standards that Fiats of yore displayed.短跑材料,虽然不可能奥迪麻烦?收盘买家都是很远廉价霍霍酸奶一锅标准议样貌结果. Post 1999 cars benefit from air conditioning, ABS, split fold rear seats and upgraded six-speaker CD-compatible stereos.从1999年邮政车空调、ABS的,分割折叠后座并升格六议长影音兼容音响. The interiors were also perked up, a weak area of earlier cars.内部也一振,面积比较薄弱轿车. Instruments were also redesigned for added clarity and better upholstery and carpets are evident.文书也重新为补充的清晰度和更好座垫、地毯,是显而易见的. It?s a lot better than you?d expect and is an interior to which some genuine thought has been given.?收盘总是比你?四、预期地处内陆的一些真实思想而得到. This is perhaps not surprising, the re-style coming within months of the launch of the amazing Fiat Multipla, so some ideas must have been shared.这或许并不奇怪,再度风格未来几个月内推出惊人多发性菲亚特、因此有些想法应该是共享.
All models in the range are duplicated in either Weekend (estate) or saloon body styles.所有型号的范围,无论是复制或周末(屋)球馆体风格. Fiat?s custom of suffixing the engine size with approximate horsepower figures helps in identifying models.菲亚特?收盘风俗与大小近似suffixing引擎马力,有助于查明模范人物. Of the petrol engined cars, there?s the 1.6 100 in either SX or ELX trim, or the1.8 115 ELX.汽油引擎的汽车,有吗?收盘160或100或SX的elx修剪或the1.8elx115. The 2.0 155 cars are available in ELX or HLX trim designations.155车的载elx2.0HLX的修剪或番号. The diesel range is probably more interesting.柴油射程可能是比较有趣. It?s best not to bother with the antiquated engine fitted to the entry model diesel, the Marea 1.9TD 75 SX, as it?s coarse and slow compared to the more modern units in the range.?收盘最好不要理会老式柴油发动机上安装入模型、1975年的marea1.9tdSX的,因为它?收盘相比较为缓慢粗现代单位范围. The 1.9TD 100 engine is available in SX and ELX designations, but it?s best to opt for the more high-tech direct injection motors.该刊物1.9td100SX的发动机和elx番号、但它?收盘最佳选择较高技术直喷式发动机.
The entry level direct-injection is the Marea 1.9JTD 105 SX, and an ELX trim is also offered.入门级直喷marea1.9jtd105SX的是,也有一个elx修剪. Next up is the 2.4 TD 125 HLX, although this was replaced in March 1999 by the star engine of the range, the 2.4 JTD 130, available only in top HLX trim level.运输署125明年起HLX的是2.4,虽然这是1999年3月,由明星更换发动机的射程,2.4JTd的130、只有顶HLX的修剪水平.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
For those that suffer from a guilty conscience, buying a Marea may be a painful experience.对于那些遭受心虚,买marea可能是一件痛苦. After all, it?s easy to sympathise with the poor seller, having paid £16,890 for his Marea 2.4 TD125 HLX saloon in 1997.毕竟它?收盘容易同情穷人卖方威尔为16890英镑,他于1997marea四月二日td125HLX的球馆. There it sits, low mileage, resplendent on its R plates, and you would be giving him £1,600 for it.审判庭上,低哩,绚烂的住宅板块,你就会给他1600英镑的费用. For those who do suffer from guilt, it would pay to remember a saying that mentions something about gift horses and mouths.对于那些遭受有罪,记住这句话,提付一下礼品及车马嘴巴.
Mareas are wonderfully inexpensive used buys.mareas都是用来买了极其便宜. Prices start just above £1,300 for a 1997 P registered 1.6 SX saloon.刚开始,价格为1300英镑以上1997年6月1日SX的磷登记球馆. A similar vintage 1.8 ELX will cost £1,400.8月1日将建成一个类似elx成本1400英镑. One of the perky Fiat Coupe-engined Marea 155 20v HLX cars will cost £2,500 on 2000 W plates.perky之一的菲亚特采伐引擎marea20V条HLX的轿车将耗资155英镑2000-2500板. Insurance ratings range from Group 8 for the base 1.6 SX through to Group 14 for the Marea 155.保险评级由八国集团萱至6月1日为基准的14组marea155.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
With so few Mareas around, choosiness may be a folly, but there?s genuinely not too much to worry about.mareas周围有这么几个,choosiness可能蠢事,但?没有太多的真正担心. This is the Fiat that developed the Coupe and the Multipla; a long way on from the company that brought us the Croma and the Strada.菲亚特认为这是发达的采伐和多发性;在很长的路,该公司送来了croma及病毒感染.
When inspecting a Marea Weekend, check for damage to the load bay, as the loading area is not the ?squarest?在考察了marea周末检查损坏负载湾,面积为装载不是?最小二乘? in its class, and may well incur damage from bulky items.在阶级、笨重物品可能招致损失. Apart from this, the Marea has little to check for.除此之外,查marea不大. Otherwise, the usual reminder to obtain a service history applies.否则,通常适用史催领服务.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(Estimated prices, based on a Marea 1.8ELX Saloon) Despite the regular pannings Fiat dealers receive in the Top Gear/JD Power reports, it?s good to know you won?t have to pay too much to receive this service.(估计价格基于marea1.8elx球馆)尽管定期接受pannings菲亚特经销商在全速/约旦第纳尔电力报告?收盘好的知道你赢了?笔已付出太多得到这项服务. Spares prices for the Marea are right there in the lower end of the class.备件价格为marea得很有较低的阶层. A clutch assembly will cost in the region of £130, whilst a rear exhaust section will retail at around £195.离合器装配了该地区将耗资130英镑,而后方排气零售科将在195英镑左右. Front brake pads are a trifling £35, while rear brake shoes are £49 a set.前刹车皮是儿戏英镑35英镑,而49年后刹车蹄都是一套. A new starter motor will set you back around £82, whilst a new alternator will see £100 vanish across the spares counter.新起动马达定你回英镑左右82虽然发电机将看到一个新的全国备件柜消失100英镑.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
Though it may share an engine with the Fiat Coupe, don?t expect flat and hard cornering.虽然它可能是共享发动机菲亚特采伐、顿河?预料和难以垄断笔单位. The Marea is set up with a comfort bias and the more powerful engined models can seem slightly too gutsy for their own benefit.marea成立了一个舒适的偏见和更强大引擎型号,似乎有些过于血性可以为自己的利益. The flipside of this aspect is relaxed and composed cruising ability, a characteristic much valued by family buyers.铜板这方面显得轻松续航能力组成,一个特点珍惜家庭买家.
The 2.4JTD and 2.0 155 models are genuinely rapid and will surprise many a road user with their turn of speed and tractability, Weekend models especially.2.4jtd和155型号的2.0确实会突然多了一条快速、方便的交替速度和温顺,尤其周末型号. This estate is an appealing package, the high-level tail lights acting as an indicator of its modernity.这个小区是一个有吸引力的方案,高层尾部灯充当其现代性的一个指标. Consumption on the JTD model is outstanding given its punchy performance.JTd的消费模式是对业绩突出的给予贴. Expect 31.4 mpg on the urban cycle from a car which can sprint to 60mph in 10 seconds.预计于4月31日的MPG市周期从一辆汽车可以在10秒内冲刺到60mph.
OVERALL 总体
Despite the many attributes of the JTD diesel-engined Marea, it?s also the model which holds its value best, which is bad news for used buyers.尽管许多属性的JTd的柴油引擎marea,它?收盘也拥有自己的价值最好的示范,这是个坏消息用买家. A more sensible choice is the 1.9TD 100, which combines acceptable performance with a miserly thirst.1.9td更明智的选择是100,它集演出接受了吝啬渴. A 1998 Marea 1.9TD 100 ELX Weekend is probably the pick of the range, offering a keenly priced used car with the worst of the model?s depreciation having already been swallowed by the previous keeper.1998marea1.9td100elx周末尖子大概范围,车用真切定价提供最坏的示范.收盘贬值已经沦陷前管家. The Marea is a long way from being at the top of most buyers?<marea是远未大部分买家在榜首? shopping lists, and this can work to your favour.购物清单,这个工作你赞成. First you?ll have to find one though.首先你?虽然当地已找到.
