HISTORY历史
Just as many were predicting the imminent demise of the medium range estate market, Ford launched a car that was just too good to overlook.正如许多人预测即将灭亡中期地产市场福特发动车子太好忽视. The explosion in popularity of medium sized MPVs like the Vauxhall Zafira and Citroen Xsara Picasso squeezed the medium range estate market from below while premium sportwagons like the Alfa 156 and the BMW 3 Series Touring further eroded Ford?s market share from above.爆炸发生在受欢迎中型mpvs像狂暴zafira和雪铁龙赛纳毕加索中期地产市场挤压而从保费低于156sportwagons像α和福特宝马三号系列巡回进一步侵蚀?从以上的市场份额. Although the Mk2 Mondeo had been a serviceable load lugger what was needed was a car that could still fulfil its practical remit but offer an upmarket feel.虽然已可用MK2在蒙迪欧铁罐负荷所需要的是一辆车,但仍然可以发挥其实际汇出提供高档感觉. Few were ready for what Ford unveiled.几个准备什么福特亮相.
With the exception of the unexceptional 2.0-litre TDdi turbo diesel engine, the Mondeo barely put a foot wrong.其中除了普通的2.0公升柴油涡轮引擎tddi,蒙迪欧勉强把踏错. Keen to rectify this oversight, Ford launched the state of the art common rail 2.0-litre TDCi engine in 2001 and made a series of detail changes aimed to keep the Mondeo at the top of the tree.渴望纠正这种疏忽福特推出现状共轨2.0升发动机在2001tdci,并提出了一系列旨在保持蒙迪欧详细变化在高高的大树. Electronic Brake Assist, once a £250 option, was fitted as standard across the range.电子刹车协助,一旦选择了250英镑,装配了全国标准范围内. This reduces stopping distances by augmenting the driver?s braking effort with additional hydraulic support thus ensuring that maximum braking efficiency is reached.这减少了省属司机停车距离?收盘液压制动努力与支持,从而确保新增刹车效率达到最高.
Security was also boosted by the introduction of auto relock.保安还引进汽车relock助威. If a locked Mondeo is unlocked using the remote key fob and no doors are opened within 45 seconds, the system will automatically relock itself.如果用锁锁上蒙迪欧是关键离岸不远处的门打开,45秒该系统将自动relock本身. In addition to this, convenience features such as automatic reverse wash wipe were phased in. This automatically activates the rear screen wiper if reverse is selected whilst the windscreen wipers are on.除此之外,自动反向清洗方便等特点逐步被消灭曾让雨刮自动启动屏幕后方逆向选择,而如果是雨刮. Sounds simple, but then the most elegant technical solutions usually are.看似简单,但通常是最优雅的技术解决方案.
The range was added to in spring 2003 with the launch of the 3.0-litre 151mph ST220 sports estate.增加幅度与2003年春季推出的3.0公升151mphst220体育产业. Those who?d felt short changed by the Mk2 ST200 emerged metaphorically beaten over the head with a sockful of quarters after a spell behind the wheel of the ST220.那些?四觉得气短st200出现改变了MK2在同一个比喻毒打头顶sockful宿舍后车轮的后面了咒语st220. A powerful yet economical 1.8-litre SCi engine was added to the Mondeo line up in autumn 2003, alongside Euro IV compliant TDCi 130 diesel engines.一个强大而节约1.8公升引擎加上去工商蒙迪欧排队2003年秋季,随着欧盟IV二千年tdci130柴油机. Two more new engines arrived in time for summer 2004.两位新引擎2004年夏抵达时间. A 204bhp 3.0-litre V6 and a 155bhp TDCi engine which was offered in the ST TDCi.一204bhp3.0升V6和一155bhptdci引擎所提供的圣tdci.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
Elegant is certainly a word that applies to the Mondeo?s interior.高雅固然字适用于蒙迪欧?内政部收盘. Flick the switches, then check the quality of fit and finish.刹那间的开关,然后检查质量适合下班. Take away the Blue Oval badge and you?d probably guess at compact executive class leaders like Audi?s A4 ?带走蓝色椭圆形徽章,你呢?丁大概猜紧凑级行政领导像奥迪?收盘A4规定? maybe even BMW?s 3 Series.甚至宝马?收盘三号系列. Except, that this car isn?t compact.除外,此车渡?镭射笔. You don?t need a tape measure to know that.您鲍思?笔需要一个皮尺知道. In fact, there?s as much space inside as Ford offered in its old flagship Scorpio, a car from the next class up.事实上,有吗?收盘空间内尽量给予其作为老福特旗舰全蝎、从明年起汽车阶级. And all of the same gadgets, niceties and safety standards.而所有的同小玩意,礼节及安全标准.
As for overall space, well the rear load bay offers a generous 0.54 cubic metres with the rear seats in place, and is refreshingly free of the boominess that often afflicts this body shape.至于整体空间负载湾提供了良好的后方慷慨0.54立方米的后座到位,是清新自由的boominess常常困扰这个体形. All right, so you could get more by opting to go the MPV or 4x4 route ?好吧,那么你可以得到更多的选择去4-4或巡逻艇的路线? but then you?d have to sacrifice driving satisfaction.可是你呢?四要牺牲驾驶满足感.
Equipment levels include most of what you would expect ?各级装备包括大部分你是否期望? air conditioning, front electric windows, a decent quality stereo and so on.空调、电动前窗,立体声品质优良等等. There?s plenty of stowage space around the cabin too, with perfectly-shaped homes for items like window squeeges, atlases, drinks cans, tapes, CDs, owners manuals and mobile ?phones.?收盘周围太空舱装载大量过,完全形象舍项目窗口squeeges、地图、铝罐、录音带、光碟、手册、车主移动?电话. Notable options include a facia-mounted CD autochanger and a DVD video system with screens mounted in the back of the front head rests: with films or linked to a PlayStation, that should keep the kids quiet on long journeys.显期权列入筋膜展开的DVD影音autochanger和视频系统安装在屏幕背后前排头部在于:影片以一个或相连的PlayStation,要保持安静,孩子远行.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Prices start at around £4,200 for a 2000X registered Mondeo 1.8i LX estate.价格为4200英镑左右开始2000x注册蒙迪欧1.8ilx遗产. A 2.0-litre Zetec model of similar vintage will be £4,800 in saloon guise, £4,850.一个2.0公升zetec模式类似古董将在4800英镑球馆重现,4850英镑. The 2.5-litre cars offer a beautiful V6 warble and the Ghia X starts at just under £5,250 on the 2000X plate.2.5升V6导车提供一个美丽而模仿ghia十大始于略低于5250英镑的2000x板块. The ST220 estate is still a very rare find but you?ll have a lot more luck tracking down decent diesels.st220的遗产,但仍然是一个非常难得找到你?当地有很多运气不错柴油机追查. If funds are really tight, the 2.0 TDdi model opens at £4,650 for an LX trim, but we?d recommend stretching that bit further and going for an ex-demonstrator or low mileage TDCi.如果真的是资金紧张,2.0tddi示范开幕的4650英镑lx修剪、但我们?四、建议进一步延伸到有点狂喜的当然还是低里程tdci示威. 115bhp LX estates open at £7,400 on an 02 plate but our advice would be to find a 51-plated 130bhp model which will cost about the same.115bhplx7400英镑遗产在1902年开放板块但我们会找到一个忠告51-镀130bhp模式约需相同.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
The Series Three Mondeo has proved commendably reliable to date, although owners have commented on cold starting issues with the TDdi diesel engine and the occasional duff driveshaft.3蒙迪欧系列证明可靠值得称赞迄今虽然业主曾就有关问题进行冷启动tddi柴油机和传动轴偶尔煤粉. There was a recall on petrol engined Mondeos in August 2001 when 5,500 cars were brought in to have their cruise control systems adjusted as there had been an instance when the system had failed to disengage.有人记得2001年8月汽油引擎mondeos当5500辆汽车被引进到巡航控制系统的调整,例如当有了制度未能脱离接触. On the whole, the Mondeo is a quality product at mainstream prices.就整体而言,蒙迪欧价格是主流产品的质量.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx prices for a 1.8 excl VAT) A front wing costs around £95 and a windscreen just under £135.(大约180价格不包括增值税)翼锋费约95英镑的挡风玻璃,略低于135英镑. Tyres are just under £90 and a complete exhaust system (including catalytic converter) would set you back about £450.就在90英镑轮胎完全排气系统(催化转化器等),能为你回约450英镑.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
Were it not for that Blue Oval staring back from the steering wheel boss, you might well mistake the interior if the Mondeo for a VW Passat whose owner had a penchant for showy clocks.如果没有这回蓝色椭圆凝视方向盘老板你可能会错,如果内政部蒙迪欧帕萨特了64+15的主雪山钟表爱好者. It?s all scarily logical, although not quite perfect, especially if your hands are anything less than dainty.?收盘各惶恐逻辑,尽管不太完善,特别是如果你们手中有什么比纤巧. If this is the case, whenever you select third or fifth gear the back of your hand will change the radio station.如果是这样的话,每当你选择第三或第五轮背面订单,将改变你的电台. The handbrake is badly positioned with not enough room for your knuckles or your thumb.handbrake奇缺的位置与空间不够你或你的拇指转向节.
You?ll forgive the Mondeo its minor ergonomic pratfalls when you hit the road.你?当地原谅蒙迪欧小工效pratfalls当你上路了. Most of the engines on offer were all-new at launch, the exception being the 170bhp 2.5-litre V6: fair enough ?大部分的引擎都提供全新系列,除了作为170bhp2.5公升V6导:公道? there wasn?t much wrong with that.有.其余?笔大错. Since then, a second 217bhp V6 has been developed for the flagship ST220, this being 3.0-litres in size.此后,已制定了第二217bhpV6导st220为旗舰,这是3.0-公升尺寸.
The all-alloy Duratec HE 1.8 and 2.0-litre petrol units used in more humble Mondeos are superb, developing 123 and 143bhp respectively and feeling faster thanks to strong low-down torque.全合金duratec他182.0公升汽油的使用单位有更谦卑mondeos精湛、分别为123和143bhp发展较快的感谢和感受强烈下流扭矩. They?re a sack of potatoes (20 kgs) lighter than rival engines, which helps performance (sixty from rest takes 9.8 seconds in the 2.0-litre) and are very rigid, which helps to achieve Passat-levels of refinement.他们?再一袋土豆(20公斤),比对手轻发动机这有助于表现(603982639月8日需在2.0秒公升),而且非常僵硬,从而达到帕萨特-层次细化. Whilst refinement isn?t the keynote of the 2.0-litre TDdi 113bhp Duratorq turbo diesel engine, it produces extremely decent fuel figures (up to 48mpg on the combined cycle).虽然精致肖国?笔基调的2.0公升113bhpduratorqtddi涡轮柴油机燃料产生极其体面人物(最多的联合循环48mpg). It?s still not the quietest unit of its kind (the Transit associations show through here) but the performance (rest to sixty in 10.6s on the way to 121mph) is some recompense.?收盘仍不宁静的同类型单位(协会展览通过这里中转),但业绩(休息至60月在10.6s途中121mph)是一些报偿. Mind you, if you really want to see a step forward in the diesel stakes, then you need to try the TDCi common rail turbo diesel unit: refined and fast, this is a far more impressive proposition and a tribute to Ford?s Centre for Diesel Excellence based in Dagenham.记住,如果你真想见向前柴油赌注,那么你需要尝试tdci共轨涡轮柴油股:成品快、这是一个更为可观命题和福特致敬?收盘卓越中心设在dagenham柴油. Whilst not as quiet as the 1.8litre TDCi unit fitted to the Focus and easy to stall when emerging from junctions, it?s otherwise a crushingly competent engine, quick, tractable and almost comically economical.虽然不平静的1.8litretdci重点单位、易于安装档时摆脱路口?另有一名军方主管的发动机,快速、多晶片几乎滑稽经济效益. As with all Mondeos, the handling is beyond reproach.如所有mondeos,处理无可非议. Whilst other rivals have made ground on the Ford in terms of interior quality, packaging and engine technology nothing in this class approaches the Mondeo?s ability to tackle a corner.虽然其他对手取得地上福特在室内质量包装和本级发动机技术的蒙迪欧办法?收盘能力对付一个角落.
OVERALL 总体
In bringing much of the premium estate sector?s quality down to mainstream price levels, the Mondeo should be applauded.在地产界带来很大的保费?各级质量收盘价降至主流,蒙迪欧应该鼓掌. The fact that it brings with it the best driving dynamics in its class, a worthwhile load bay and the security of the Blue Oval badge propels the Mondeo to the top.事实上,它带来了最好的动力在阶级、值得负荷湾的安全和人的蓝色椭圆形徽章的蒙迪欧顶. The TDCi models are probably the pick of the bunch but if you choose a well looked after car it?s difficult to go wrong.tdci型号的尖子大概目次但是如果你选择的照顾车吗?收盘难差错.
