So, you're young, fairly well equipped and are looking for a dynamic and prestigious car ... Choosing something really small. Sedans middle class from the big German troika - a BMW, "Mercedes-Benz", "Audi" and "Jaguar-X", "Lexus-IS" yes "Volvo" with Saab. But the "Japanese", for that matter, and BMW, are forced to take that yield finishing machines have already identified at the plant. Not all approach to their liking. "Mercedes" to build for themselves can, but it will cost so dearly. "Jaguar" is actually just ennobled "Mondeo". A Swedish car still nedotyagivaet to truly prestigious class. It turns out that the "Audi-A4" - is a godsend for those who want to get a car that was created in accordance with their wishes, is prestigious, but the correct choice of modification is not insanely expensive. And it's interesting, "four" is not only an abundance of options, finishes, exterior colors, but also a variety of engines and transmissions even. How much? Be assured, any A4 - girl who knows her worth. In her company in your respectability hardly in doubt. However, the choice of "four" with a basic 8-klapannikom to 102 liters. with. looks at least strange. Yes, even the equipment of this machine probably the most generous in the classroom. But if you need a prestigious, richly decorated and an expensive car at $ 30,208 with virtually no motor? That is why the need to consider the A4 with a 2-liter version. It is already possible to get both the "mechanics" and with the AKP "Multitronik." 130 hp. with. in most cases, but in such a motor is simply amazing. And the surcharge on a scale of prices, "Audi" is small - $ 2714. Too weak a A4 only complex overtaking on a country road. Therefore, the optimal choice - A4-1, 8T. Dynamic-looking car and drive on any road shall accordingly. A drive turbocharged 163 hp. with. for the "Quartet" - just what the doctor ordered. This is much faster than the overwhelming majority of cars are, but still not very expensive - from $ 35 990, much cheaper than the BMW and S-class. To this amount, without hesitation (monotonous exercises with a clutch pedal and lever the "mechanics" you probably prefer the gym), add $ 2453 for "machine". On all front-drive A4 CVT his role. Then you can choose the options list is limited essentially only by your imagination. Only for interior decoration offers 9 types of tissue, 15 - Skin 2 - suede, 5 choices of decorative boxes, and for dessert, as many as six different steering wheels - none of our competitors do not have such a variety. Of course, if you're with aplomb, Cleopatra, who wishes to Rome brought to the house in its original packaging, you want to create a unique car, will have to pay. A less fastidious could find very attractive price options. For example, a fabric "Mikado" are free, others require a reasonable ($ 222) Fee and stylish faceted aluminum inserts are utter nonsense - $ 159. In short, if you do not pick and choose rather to just stay in a quite acceptable for the "Quartet" part - in the $ 41-42 thousand. Given the equipment is cheaper than all the prestigious competition. Among other options you should pay attention to the very lucrative "1,8 T-Quattro", 140-horsepower turbodiesel 2,0 TDi. But first, in spite of such right in Russia, four-wheel drive, you can not buy a "machine" and the other gas stations only need to deter high-quality "diesel fuel" and startup problems in extreme cold. More powerful (200-344 hp..) "Four" buy one. Yes, they offer the greatest variety of mechanical and automatic transmissions, and front-wheel drive, but they are now $ 55-94 thousand - prohibitively expensive for the middle class. Outside ... The current chief designer of "Audi" Walter da Silva has repeatedly argued - can create stylish pieces. His record includes such beauties as "Alfa Romeo 147" and "SEAT Ibiza-'. And thanks to its responsive government is not new light restyling of the machine (the present A4 debuted in 2000) just over a year ago turned it into a nature far more vivid. Just something and needed - to give the headlights squint a little, to decorate a huge nose, in the style of today's "Audi", aggressive grille, but to put on the bottom of the door moldings, trunk lid and on podshtampovku. Done deal! On the street in a fashionable women always pay attention. Emphasize the dignity of her pieces can be any of 18 colors. White, dark blue, black and red are free. But if you like Metallica, will have to pay. For example, the so-reaching A4 pomegranate or beige are $ 1036. Expensive, of course. But it is very beautiful ... And it is exactly what the buyer should not pay extra A4, it is the quality of the assembly body. Perfectly aligned, just a few millimeters of clearance left alone where they can not be. Even the most problematic for the cutting of any car seats - pair of bumpers and bodywork, the bonnet and headlamps, trunk lids and fenders - all sewn on envy accurately and without flaw. And everywhere these same seals. Even the engine compartment to isolate them allowed on the perimeter in order to save the electronics of the engine from fatal dust and moisture. In the door and window openings, and they did laid in two layers - fabric and rubber. Such generosity - a noble pledge clunk when you close any doors. ... And a respectable vnutriPosle cotton interior doors expensive looking perceive granted. It is not quite full "Mercedes", cold correctness of BMW, the abundance of newfangled electronics "Lexus." But there is a cozy, albeit without much luxury, but a very elegant little world. Of course, leather or alcantara expensive and exquisite sense of the vehicle will only strengthen. But here is surprising, and without interior and breathes nobility: a simple gray-blue cloth, "Mikado" - exactly match the body, the skin on the steering wheel, expensive plastic stamped, branded red illumination devices, stylish aluminum lining. Not forgotten and passengers in the rear couch. From the convenience of door handles blows Q, and the forearm is at once a comfortable wide support. Landing somewhat hampered by the standards of class narrowish doorways, but for an adult average proportions quite convenient. Sofa cushion hard, correct length and angle. The back also boasts a significant lateral support. In addition, the plastic lining on the backs of chairs carved out deep podshtampovki. It is thanks to them, even if the front driver-hero, and your height feet tall, space for knees with a margin of 4-5 cm, however, third on the "gallery" uncomfortable. Not only the tunnel in the floor. Sit on the presenter's head and backed ottoman ceiling lighting. In short, the best ride on the couch no more than two. Then, under the right arm can arrange a convenient sliding armrest with the company's first-aid kit inside. Belle is no stranger practicality. However, she captivates primarily the driver. For rulemSnimayu hat to the creators of the bridge! Comfortable, convenient, made with the growth and physique of different people. Ranges regular lirovok huge, but particularly impressive vertical - as much as 10 cm shook comfortable grip on the butt pads, changed the slope of the back, and you can get almost as much vertical as in kompaktven. Agree to pay? Seats will be ... correctly, even better. Plus $ 893 - in the cabin will sport seats with more developed side fence. $ 1149 - all mechanical adjustments, including lumbar stress, replace actuators. It offers great aesthetes light or dark skin a variety of shades, and in their seats, "Recari" ($ 2946 plus $ 3502 for leather "Valkonen") and do can be a champion racing driver,. Expensive? Well, that's really ... But remember where we started dating with the interior? Even without expensive frills salon looks are still very generous. And like that to deal with lots of buttons and knobs easy. So, the driver A4 Suitable perfect? Not exactly. And soon all will find, to find fault, those who travel actively. Gas and brake pedals are not in sports - a step. The key in the ignition, perched dangerously close to his right knee. Swinging foot on the brake, one never knows hour - zadenesh. And the configuration of the dashboard is not for a "driver", but rather a connoisseur of comfort. The central place was given no tachometer - display information about the run on the rest of the fuel operating mode "automatic" setting on the radio and even some certainly important, but for me, not knowing German, alas, inaccessible data. Do you think it does not speak in Russian computer - a trifle? Maybe. But such details will be typed, perhaps half a dozen. If you raise the parking brake lever, he rested in the armrest. And I pressed the wrong buttons are convenient to the spokes of wheel. It turns out that this is only a stub, if the machine does not have an advanced on-board control system. On our A4 it was simplified. And soon, this simplification will play with me unkind joke. On the roads ... Powerful heater for a few seconds, gave a sweaty windshield transparency. Sensors shrill squeaking belts are strongly advised to buckle up. Obey. Sneaking in reverse, for fear of inadvertently offending someone in the parking lot, staff parking sensors allows you to choose millimeters. A few meters ahead, and automatically lock the door locks. Gosh, how nice all the same, when you care about! Falls dirt from under the truck windshield forced incessantly to demonstrate its agility, and I - every now and then include a washer. All of a sudden the washer tank empties. Before the eyes of a white shroud only periodically pounded "wipers." It's only later I learned that when you order the very full on-board computer for $ 382 on a low level of water I would have warned the pilot lamp. Of course, many cars are still her absence to the present day norm. But why kopek sensor is present, by the way, on any "golf" on "Audi" requires additional payments? However, the same pleasant impressions of the ride was on the order of magnitude. The first - the work "Multitronika." Neither the AKP with a torque converter is not able to change so smoothly transfer. Even in the best "machines" that moment visible on the tachometer, and the CVT does all the work if in one breath. Slightly touch the gas pedal, the tachometer needle stuck about 1500 rev / min, and calmly begins to measure the speedometer - 40, 60, 80 km / h. Like to transfer one! "Acts like peafowl," - this is about A4 with CVT. Or you may place a jerk so that passengers can release the head of HR. Prozhimayu pedal to the Polycom and enjoy a very forceful and, again, a uniform (only now in the 5-5.5 thousand rpm) acceleration. As there will be a shift chain variator how to change the gear ratio by simultaneous displacement of the master and slave pulleys - are absolutely irrelevant. Importantly, this allows the transmission and drive smoothly, quickly and simultaneously. I do not remember any of the AKP, which has not lost to a "mechanics" or one-hundredth of the recruitment of 100 km / h. "1.8 T-Multitronik" just like that. It allows you to change gears manually, hang on every step of the imaginary. Downhill-uphill or when necessary to help the engine to slow down transmissions, these qualities are very useful. Another pleasant surprise - the suspension. That shows, at first surprisingly hard on small bumps, it really is very energy-intensive. Tile is under the wheels, framing the tram tracks, trestles joints, or serious, a few centimeters, potholes, the body is guaranteed to be saved from the devastating blows. I must say thank you not just cancel the shock absorbers, a modest, due to extensive use of aluminum, unsprung weight, but also mounted on the subframe rubber cushions. Comfortable suspension, the miracle "machine", a muffled roar of turbo and excellent soundproofing birth to the desire to go far, far away. And on the highway, "four" like even more. To accelerate from 100-110 km / h, we just have a little more prozhat the gas pedal. Tranquility and serenity miraculously combined with composure during the passage of irregularities, even if they are to descend on 130. No scary buildup, no pulling to one side. Noticeable as the howling wind, licking mirrors and body-pillar, there is only 150-160 km / h. On a winding suburban track failed to notice one more pleasing quality of A4. Especially porezche entering the turn, I became acquainted with the system stabilization path - rapid, accurate, though no alarming abruptness. ESP immediately slowing down, retarding wheels, and "Audi" is easily the specified wheel path. However, the distinction between such a "figure skating" and trouble is always very thin. And always willing to play such games have a lot to explore - the ability to feel the limit of the grip to control the machine in the turns, not only driving, but gas. Have not yet learned? Just enough to slow down before turns. Limit, where A4 is able to prescribe them safely, it is still higher than most cars are. ... and without nihMezhdu way, ESP - a great assistant and on snow-covered rise. Our thanks to FWD A4 electronic differential lock (one of the components of the stabilization system) has allowed me to easily move on the rise, when the left wheels were on the pavement and the right - on ice. But who told you that city girls must be able to measure the drifts, as collective farm milkmaid? That's from the A4 any serious SUV capacity is not expected. Low front overhang suggests a very careful maneuvering with curbs and clearance of 135 mm (unloaded, note the machine) - the need to avoid the ruts left by even the "Lada". Although quite so fragile it can not be called a sissy. Engine compartment, fuel lines and all the highways are closed with plastic, aluminum levers and the rear suspension from the bottom covered with steel plates, so that hurt them, even sitting on the "belly", just will not work. Georgia chemodanyProem trunk is surrounded by another seal. Dust is guaranteed not to penetrate to the fuzzy upholstery. It is interesting that the apparent compact sedan surprisingly roomy cargo hold. He is very deep - 1100mm. In form it is almost a regular box, with a deep capacious recesses for the wheel arches. There are recesses and the lid (in the raised position it is easy to fix with plastic hook) of the floor. Sorry, useful things, like folding and split at a ratio of 2 / 3 back of the sofa or a ski hatch in "Audi" is necessary to order. And are they, alas, not cheap. However, fans of an active lifestyle would be the best station wagon. BezopasnostPo modern standards, four stars earned "four" in tests "EvroNCAP" five years ago - the result is quite modest. But in the database 6 airbags, active front head restraints, seat belts with pretensioners and Collapsible steering column. The surcharge will install a couple of rear side airbags. However, not paying for switchable front airbags, child seat should not be placed back on the front seat forward. But the "children" locked rear door locks and power windows, Isofix anchorage and do not require additional payment. Exploitation servisKupiv expensive "Audi", and pay for the service, of course, will be much more than the owner of "Ford" or "Opel". Although it may seem that the operation of "four" less prestigious countrymen. But if it is recommended to evaluate the price of MOT and parts. Calling the five dealers in Moscow (Russia only in their 28), we found that the total cost, for example, TO2 ranges from $ 320 to $ 440. These figures are already similar to those that require "treshka" or C-class. And not to lose the 2 - year warranty, will have to look at the service every 15 thousand miles. But for insurance you will find some good news: Rates hull only 7.7%. Anyone who wants to save money in the accident will study the price list for body parts, eg replacing the door with the painting will cost more than a thousand have. And still is, before the end of the warranty period is not too lazy to make a full diagnosis of the suspension. Given the abundance of aluminum underneath, will be able to save money on repairs. Pros of large attachments, however, also exists. Main - the operating throughout Russia, "the guarantee of mobility." Thanks to her, you are entitled to free assistance of an emergency, including evacuation of the machine, even if the "Audi" will break far outside capitals. We decided A4 - it's not just image, but also a convenient, fast car with a lofty finish for smooth operation of outstanding transmission and good handling. It is worth it, though not cheap. And the content of the road.
