FORD MONDEO MK1 (1993-1996)福特蒙迪欧mk1(1993-1996)
It?s hard to believe the Mondeo has been with us since 1993.?收盘难以置信的蒙迪欧自1993年以来已经存在. Perhaps this is due to the fact that it never had the difficult gestation of cars like the Sierra, Cougar, Scorpio and Ka, models that took time to gain popular acceptance.也许这是千真万确的,它从来没有像塞拉艰难酝酿汽车、美洲豹、全蝎、嘉、型号花些时间争取民众认同. There was never any rocky probationary period in the public?s view of the Mondeo.岩石上从来就没有任何试用期呢?鉴于该蒙迪欧收盘. The press loved it and major award followed major award, including the European Car of the Year title for 1994.记者随后大爱奖主要奖励与包括欧洲年度车的称号,为1994. Yes, it may have initially been dubbed the Mundano by some wags, but that?s only because it didn?t represent a quantum leap in styling in much the same way that the Sierra was a generation on from the Cortina.不错,可能有一些起初被媒体誉为mundano舞动,但为何?收盘只因为雾化?笔代表了飞跃一样,在造型的塞拉是在从科尔蒂纳丹一代. Despite the evolutionary lines, the Mondeo was streets ahead under the skin and represented a constantly moving target that Vauxhall?s Vectra never managed to come to terms with.尽管进化路线蒙迪欧前面的街道被皮肤下不断移动的目标,并较制服?收盘vectra终来计算. Oversupply ensured that there were plenty of used bargains about, and it pays to shop around to find one that?s right for your needs, so take your time, look at a few and bargain hard.供大于求保证有很多用来讨价还价的,它四处寻找一个付费?你需要的权利,那么你慢慢、看看几个和讨价还价.
HISTORY历史
Just as the once controversial Sierra was being subsumed into the mainstream, Ford announced the Mondeo to replace it in February 1993.正如曾有争议塞拉被并入主流福特宣布蒙迪欧代替它在1993年2月. Initially, there was a choice of three petrol engines - a 1.6, a 1.8 and a 2.0-litre, all 16v units.起初,有三个选择汽油引擎--1.6,180和2.0升,全部16v单位. There was also a 1.8-litre turbo diesel.还有180公升柴油涡轮. Two spacious bodystyles - a five-door hatch and a saloon - were offered at launch and estates followed a few months later.两个宽敞bodystyles-5舱口和一辆房门口--80707在发射和随后几个月后屋.
Specifications?规格? Well, they followed the established Ford path, ranging from base (latterly Aspen) and LX through GLX to Ghia.那么,他们遵循既定的道路福特不等基地(从前阿斯)lx通过对天然ghia. All were highly specified, with even entry-level cars featuring a driver's airbag, tinted glass, power steering and an alarm system.一切都非常明确,即使入门级轿车,展出驾驶员安全气囊、茶色玻璃、动力转向系统、警报. Immobilisers were added in August 1994.1994年8月加入阻截.
In October 1994, a V6 24v variant was added to the range in all three bodystyles, with base, Si, and plush Ghia spec.1994年10月,一个V6导-24V型变种增加幅度都在三bodystyles,与基地、硅、ghia光谱、长毛绒. By this time, you could identify all Ghia models by their bright chrome front grille.此时,你可以找出所有型号的美好ghia铬锋门锁. In January 1995, the Aspen (previously a special edition) became the entry-level model.1995年1月,阿斯(前特别版)成为入门级的模式.
In April 1995, 2.0-litre 4x4 models were introduced (but lasted less than a year), while in October 1995, Ghia X flagship spec was added as an option for all but 1.6 and 1.8-litre petrol models.1995年4月,2.0公升型号推出4-4(但历时不到一年),而1995年10月被列为十大ghia旗舰光谱但所有选项1.61.8-公升汽油型号. This allowed Ford to reduce the price of Ghia variants (they also reduced equipment so air conditioning became optional instead of standard).这让福特降低售价ghia变种(它们也减少空调等设备反而成了择标准).
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The Mondeo has had its share of hype - but in this case, it's been well deserved.蒙迪欧的份额已开足马力,但在这种情况下,实在是当之无愧.

That's in addition to driver?s airbag, power steering, anti-theft alarm with immobiliser, tinted glass, adjustable steering wheel, ?lights-on?这除了司机?收盘气囊、动力转向、防盗报警与防盗,茶色玻璃,可调方向盘?灯安? warning buzzer, electric front windows, a tilting/sliding sunroof and a good quality stereo radio cassette.蜂警告,电动前窗,倾斜/滑动天窗、质量好的立体声广播录音机.

That makes the earlier cars criminally undervalued assets which the canny used buyer would do well to take advantage of.这使得先前的坎尼车用刑事贱卖资产买方做好利用.
