Very weighty role in the development of the image of KIA as a manufacturer quality machines Played model Cerato. Kia Cerato is the successor of the Spectra model, in the states new car They even sold under the name Spectra, and in South Korea, the car is known as K3. In the development of Kia Cerato, 220 million euros were invested, Cerato production began in 2004, but the Korean model - K3 was available to South Korean drivers since 2003. Ukrainian motorists often acquired cars collected in 
Lutsk, because in 2005 the production of Korean cars was established in the Ukrainian city. Kia Cerato first generation was removed from production in 2009, the first generation was replaced by the second, but today the third generation presented in 2012 is already produced. In this article we will pay attention to the first generation Kia Cerato. 2004 - 2009, at least the car is no longer new, but it is a very good option on secondary market cars.
External Overview Kia Cerato 2004-2009

Curb Mass Caia Cerato in the body sedan with mechanical gearbox and a volume of 1.6l - 1169kg. According to experts, Cerato anti-corrosion protection can be assessed as satisfactory, although today it is not yet possible to meet frankly rusty copies, but the edge of the hood does not withstand the punches of pebbles, not rarely paint cracks and the hood begins to rust. Even some more older representatives Golf Class, anti-corrosion resistance is higher, for example, it is higher than, or. "Muchakka" on the Cerato hood will not be superfluous. dimensions Sedana 
Kia Cerato: 4480mm * 1735mm * 1470mm, Cerato Wheel Base - 2610mm. It is worth noting that the Cerato Wheel Base cannot be called small, in part thanks to it the good term stability, which has this car. In 2007, restyling was held over Cerato, updated kia. Cerato can be found in the new grid of the radiator, on top of the photo Cerato to modernization. As well as changed back lanterns and bumper.

More expensive modification - EX externally distinguishable on fogs installed in front bumper. Kia Cerato is extended to the tires 195/60 R15.
Salon and equipment
According to the results of EURONCAP Cerato received 3 stars, even in those years - it is not too good result, first Ford Focus Until 2004 received 4 stars, and its second generation is already 5 stars. 
In general, during the production of the first Cerato, 5 stars for golf class cars have already been the norm. Kia Cerato can be praised for a spacious salon. IN basic complete set - LX includes an electric drive glass, hydro amplifier, heated front seats and air conditioning. The steering wheel in Kia Cerato 2004-2009 can be adjusted along the angle of inclination.

Rear in Cerato is pretty spacious, it seems that the place adds a low landing on the back sofa, as well as the slope of the sofa back. Cerato sedan trunk is not high in class standards - 345 liters, but it is located full-size spare wheelthat is quite important in our conditions. According to reviews kia owners Cerato 2004 - 2009, noise insulation is not bad, some are noted as the best in comparison with Nissan Almera Classic., or Mitsubishi Lancer. 9.
Technical Equipment and Characteristics Kia Cerato 2004-2009
Kia Cerato 2004-2009 was equipped with one of three gasoline engines. This is 1.6 power in 104 horsepower, later this motor was replaced by 1.6 16V 122l.s. Aggregate is equipped cVVT system - This is a system of changing the phases of gas distribution from KIA. It is noteworthy that the motors 1.6 are equipped with a timing chain drive, which positively affects the reliability of the engine. According to the reviews of specialists, typical weaknesses in the Motor Cerato. Adjusting thermal gaps on these motors is required once in 300 000 km, work is carried out using adjusting washers. Immediately note that diesel versionsThat we do not find the "day with fire" the adjustment of heat gaps is not required, since the cerato dieselos is equipped with hydrocompensators. For acceleration to a hundred kilometers from a cerato driver with a motor 1.6 by 122 horses, 11.7 ° C takes place, on the cerato highway can develop 186 kilometers per hour.
The most powerful is a modification with a motor 2.0l with a capacity of 143l.s and traction force in 186n.m. A higher twist of two-liter cerato provides a set of one hundred km in 9 seconds. The degree of compression in such an engine 10.1: 1, due to the not too high degree of compression, many owners are poured into the cerato-92th gasoline tank, but it is better to pour the 5th. The Kia Cerato fuel tank accommodates 55 liters. It is also worth saying that the diameter of the cylinder of the two-liter cerato 82mm, and the stroke of the piston is 93.5mm, which indicates the rotation of the motor (the piston stroke is greater than the diameter of the cylinder). Consumption of gasoline two-liter modification of cerate - 7.5 liters in a mixed cycle.
Diesel installations KIA Equipped with fuel injection COMMON RAIL.. Diesel cerato are equipped with 1.5 and 2.0 liter dieselks, power, respectively, 102 and 113 horsepower.
Unlike many other foreign cars in Kia Cerato, a rather high clearance - 160mm, which is even comparable to some parquets.
The absolute majority of the first cerats are equipped with mechanical five-speed gearboxes. According to the reviews of the Cerato boxes are quite reliable, only during runs exceeding 50 000 km can leak the sickness of the scenes, but this is not serious breakdown. Replacement transmission Oil In the PPC of the first generation of Cerato, it is recommended to spend once in 90,000 km, in the automatic gearbox the same procedure should be performed every 60 000km.
The chassis of Cerato is the advantage of this car. Firstly, the first Cerato generation is equipped with a fully independent suspension, while the second generation of Cerato is already the beam. The rear multi-dimension contributes to high speeds, comfort and safe passage of turns. The weakest seat of the chassis of Cerato are the bushings of stabilizers, which are enough for 30,000 mileage, but they change separately from the stabilizers themselves. In general, in Cerato, such details like Silent blocks and balls change separately from the levers, which significantly reduces the cost of repair. Silent blocks of levers and ball supports 150 000km live in Cerato, even the tips of the steering is grabbing 100 000km. Rear hub bearings Usually grabs 100 000km, but here they are delivered only with the hub.
In contrast to many other models of golf class, Kia Cerato 1 is equipped with disk brakes on all wheels. Already in the Cerato base, ABS and EBD (brake force distribution system) are equipped.
Price
When watching ads for the sale of KIA Cerato 2004 - 2009, you can draw the following conclusion. Kia Cerato 2007 can be used for $ 10,000. Price kia Cerato 2009 - 12,000 - $ 14,000. There are not many cerats on the BA market over 2007, but they are cheaper, it is quite realistic to buy a well-kept car for $ 9,000.
Kia Cerato cannot be called an ideal machine, but it has very weighty advantages. The advantages of Cerato include: overall reliability, relative cheap repair and spacious salon.
Good afternoon to everyone who reads feedback.
I decided to write about my former typewriter (maybe someone will help my review when choosing a car) - I read a lot of feedback on this site.
Well, let's start in order.
The car was purchased new in 2007 - parents, so first time (this is somewhere 3 years) I traveled with my mother, then gradually moved into my possession. I then had my own car 21099 - the animal of the beast, I drove everywhere and did not break much. Well, to be honest, after 99, Kiya seemed just a Mercedes, everything new, beautiful, comfortable. Immediately write, with which I will compare. There was a BMW 520 1992 G.V. 6 boilers 150 hp-fire, now Lancer 9 Saray 2006. 98 hp - just shed \u003d) and Mazda 2 2008. 103 hp ACP is a mad stool.
When buying the choice was between Lacetti, Lancer 9, Sid (watched only MCPP). Lacetti seemed rustling and oak plastic in the cabin. It would probably have bought Lancer or LED, but prices for them were decent more. Lancer cost about 480000, but since it was removed from production and there were remnants in the salons, then managers simply wondered 50 tr. On the car to the standard price, it is not clear why. LED for money cerats was from 1.4 and with kondeem. In general, it was also stopped at Cerato 1.6 MCPP with climate control, the rest, as in all. Price 484,000 rubles
Engine: In my opinion, this is the best car. I did not break anything in him, did not knock, did not shake. The only thing that changed in the engine is 1 ignition coil. For 185,000, even the generator belt was not worn - I did a complete diagnosis of the car 3 times a year. The engine is chain, so what is the replacement of the timing, I did not know.
The body: paintwork, normal, on 4. Where the chips from the stones, of course, a rye appeared, but it was worth losing her with his finger and did not grow anything. For 8 years nowhere has not covered rust.
Suspension is good, shock absorbers go up to 100 thousand very comfortable suspension - gently and steadily behaved on the road.
Grip - the most weakness Koreans, walks to 75 - 80 thousand. As soon as this mileage comes, everything does not include transfers and everything.
About driving quality and comfort. Rides the car is very good and cheerfully, Lancer and Lacetti go worse with 1.6. I go to Lancer, and it seems to me that the trailer attacked him and there another half tons of sand were loaded, of course to him 98 hp. Mazda even with automatic transmission much cheer. Suspension is soft, and therefore, when you go to long distances along the track, then everyone starts to fall asleep, the car sails like a ship. But there is the only minus as soon as the Frost is more -10 Street, the suspension on the lying police is hammered as if there is a brica there instead of shock absorbers, I do not know what is connected, perhaps such good parts we supply. Kealya for this car does not exist at all, the steering wheel can always be kept with the fingers of one hand, Lancer and Mazda Kieya feel good, and I caught a Bahu, but I caught a two hands, but there was TRADE 225 Rubber stood. On the engine of the engine for overtaking (if the climate is not included), he took the horses 20 exactly, so if it is turned on, then it was necessary to twist up to 6000 thousand. I accelerates Ku once to 210, but at such a speed on it is not very comfortable, the most comfortable The speed for it is 120-150 and the noise is not much from the engine and do not need to catch. Noise isolation by car on 4, most of all noise comes from the engine after 3500 thousand, but from the wheels are not so noisy, the Shumka on Lancer is much worse, the noise from the wheels on it presses on the ears. The climate works excellent warmly warm, in the summer cool.
Well, I will describe what was changed during this time on the car.
60000 - Replacement fuel filter (planned replacement)
75000 - Clutch Replacement
95000 - Replacing shock absorbers
120000 or 5 years - replacement of the native battery (dead 45 A.Ch. was)
140000 - Replacing the ignition coil on 3 cylinders
150000 - Replacing the lambda probe (this is our gasoline)
160000 - replacement of the radiator (from time to rotate the seal from above - dot)
162000 - Clutch Replacement
170000 - replacement of sleeves, stabilizer racks and in my opinion the front levers.
175000 - changed the Sls in the assembly left (in vain changed) - in front of something crushed, went to the service (which next to the house) and I was sentenced to Sls, well, I changed, and I went to another service (this is in vain) - Khrush remained In the end, I went to them for the sake of interest and said Find now what crouches. They searched for 5 people for an hour, but did not find it, they said when the crackling would stand on the street, then come - I honestly to say fucking from that, in the proven service understood for 5 minutes. It is at the protection of the Carter Nut breakdown and until the end of the defense did not attract and it was rubbed and was a crunch. Outcome: Two nuts and 300 rubles. And the shrus with the work of 16 thousand. I got up \u003d))))))))))))))
180000 - Replacing the front brake discs.
Well, it seems to be everything, of course something has seen something.
Outcome: the car is worth your money and never regretted that you bought this car. Good luck on the roads.

At the time of exitKia Cerato 1- clad generation, brand itself,—
Kia, did not differ in prestige. Then, in 2005, our people just began to perceive Korean cars, as something normal, and not consumer goods. And it is worth saying that in the formation of the image of Kia, as a producer of good, and high-quality carsA rather significant role was played by the very first Cerato. 
In development and commissioning production of Kia. Cerato 1, 220 million dollars were invested. This car was collected in the Ukrainian Lutsk, and that even more interesting:— in terms of sales, at some moment, it bypassed even such a favorite in UkraineLanos and he became the most sold foreign car in Ukraine.
Today, buy Kia Cerato 1, it is possible for 6,000$. At its price, this car is comparable to the very first focus, or from the second astro. True the latter, for the same money, will be for a couple more older.
About the appearance of Kia Cerato 1
Take a look at the photo Kia Cerato 1, - Is this car looks worse than the 9th Lantser? First Cerato 
Produced like a sedan, and as hatchback. And the last one external species, more enhances the wagon. This views similarity from the first Mazda 3.
The basic sedan, with a 1.6l engine, and mechanical gearbox, has a cut of 1169kg. According to reviews kia owners Cerato 1, on the hood of their car, often appear rust dots caused by crushed stone blows.
In 2007, modernization was carried out over Cerato, such cars, the easiest way to know in the transparent strip, at the bottom of the lanterns.Cerato. , in more expensive performanceEX. Already from the factory, equipped with fogs.
- About the cabin:
Cerato first generation, poorly showed itself onEURO NCAP. 
There she scored only 3 stars, whereas in those years for golf class cars, 5 stars were already the norm. PerformanceLX , in the Cerato base, it was two, frontairbag. -And heated front seats, and adjustable steering wheel.
It is also worth noting that the 345l trunk volume, by the standards of the golf class, is really little.
Characteristics Kia Cerato 1
Initially, basic engine Kia. Cerato 1, was 1.6 per 104l.s. But after Restayl, its power increased to 122 horses. The more powerful, two-liter modification, has on the front wheels, 143l. With power and 186n. M. Not bad indicators, considering not so high, compression ratio of 10.1:1.
By the way, thanks to the chain drive timing, motor Kia. Cerato 1.6, is significantly greater reliability than its two-liter modification.
Of course, it can be said that the same Honda, for his civilian models, removed from two liters of 150l.s, already in the late 80s, but it is worth understanding that among the owners of Kia, most drivers are calm people who are in their manner Drives are not riders.
In Europe, diesel motors were widely widespread by 1.5 and 2.0. With a capacity of 102 and 113l.s, respectively.
- Results:
Kia Cerato 1, it is worth buying precisely with a 1.6 liter engine. Yes, with a motor 2.0 jerk, and even more so with the go, a little stronger, but such a motor is not so reliable - when the timing belt is closed,— it will be a very big head. Two-liter modification is worth buying only, with initially more attractive cost.
But if you need 2 liters, I'd rather find Honda, albeit older, but it will be completely different emotions.
This car is a sedan with a wheel base of 2700 cm, an atmospheric engine 1.6, a classic hydromechanical machine with 6 transmissions, half-dependent suspension - beam. From new technologies: electric power steering, electrophole.
From direct competitors see: toyota Corolla (beam, base 2700, but: variator), renault Fluence (beam, base 2700, but: variator), peugeot 408 (beam, base 2717, hydraulic lamps 4 stepped DP0, again there is a turbo engine with 6 st. AISIN, but not a competitor because the price is higher).
Not competitors (sharpened): Ford Focus (Tensile Salon, Robot, Vibroshum in the Salon - Although of course Shumka in the doors were clearly improved, the vibroshum would not go anywhere, the bunch of body on the waves, weak brakes), Mitsubishi Lanser (you can say the same Focus, is it what ground clearance higher, brakes are better), Mazda 3 (Ford Focus platform, the same thin, noisy, but good old hydroavtomate).
Strengths:
- Hydroavomat
- Smooth stroke
- Spacious salon
- Comfortable landing
- Comfortable steering wheel
- Heat in the cabin is always
- Completely balanced regular radio tape recorder and speaker kit.
- Vertkaya
- Excellent brakes
Weak sides:
- Beam

Strengths:

- About high flow in the city - 11- 13 liters in traffic jams
- Low reseller price
Feedback Kia Cerato 2.0 CVVT (Kia Cerato) 2008
Good afternoon, car enthusiasts!
Auto 2008g.v., 2.0, automatic 4-speed + tiptron.
For a long time I felt the thought of buying Cheratka, after all, the view of her attractive, and acquaintances, having such cars, said that the machine is good for all qualities. Before this led the lacetti sedanchik 1.6 mechanics. For comparison, I will note, the salon from Cheraco is slightly closer than the lacente, but a little, the trunk, too, Shumka around the arms is worse (and there is no noise), heard all the sand, which flies with under the wheels, but it's not scary, I want to install the shoes, They say help. The salon is certainly quite prettier than the lacente, it looks like a representative class car. The dynamics - the beast, 143l.s., the machine works canceled, does not inspire the droplets, you want to overtake someone - pressed, immediately switches to the lower gear and went. By the way, consumption on the track in the speed range of 100-110km. (At the same time, the tachometer arrow at 110- 2.5 thousand revolutions) in a calm mode showed 6.5 - absolutely truthful, not lying. As for the city, with a calm ride gives 10-10.3. As for the chassis, she is all native, except for bushings of stabilizers (mileage 61000), the pits goes well, the only minus - the native front rack, a small punishment on the right, they said that they were in perfect order, they have such a work of racks, and they keep , does not chat. On the track, the car obedient, does not roll, does not throw, etc. Climate without problems. Stable acoustics in normal. The main thing seemed to write, do not condemn, wrote as it is.
Strengths:
- Appearance
- Challenges
- Salon
- Motor 2.0.
Weak sides:
- Weak noise insulation arches
- Front racks

Review Kia 1.6l., 122l.s., 4AcPP (Kia Cerato) 2007
In early 2007 I decided to part with a three-year-old Nexia and acquire something more comfortable. Ksyuha, by the way, was quite a decent machine compared with the domestic auto industry (owned VAZ 2106 and new VAZ 2107). The only one, in my opinion, its disadvantage - long sills and low clearance (in the winter constantly clinging protection). Sold in a state close to the perfect.
Shortly before the sale began to study the Internet and press for a new car. Search criteria: up to 500t.r., not lower than golf class and like it. Like everything I looked at the tricks, meganas, etc. Mark Kia. I did not consider at all, although I also stared at the just appeared Chery Fora and Tiggo. She climbed many forums. Focusing at that time hayli their cars "what the light costs", therefore I refused it. Megan - like nothing, but prejudices like "Fff" in the end also won.
Somehow driven by and ******, I decided to look once again on Sonatu. I went to the salon, "passed", moved towards the exit and was caught off by the surprise suddenly arose before me by the manager. I still succumbed to his persuasion to pay attention to the car with an indecent name of Serato. We went around ten for about ten minutes, then as much as inside. He told me story Kia., models, etc. Machine in principle liked (it was still a dorestayling version). The houses have already been targeted in the Internet. The Cerato Forum met exceptional goodwill and love for his cars. According to reviews it turned out - this is what is needed.

Feedback Kia Cerato, 1,6,122 hp ACP (Kia Cerato) 2007
I would like to tell a little about my car. Especially this is my first foreign car. Prior to that, traveled exclusively on the vases (8 years old). Yes, and those who are going to buy a similar car or already owns such, it will be not sensitive to read. So, everything is in order.

LCP is very weak! Somehow drove from Voronezh at night. M4 deserted track, there is practically no one. And here on my misfortune at a speed of 140 km / h I fly to a flock of some huge beetles that crossed or flewing the track. Not only was the whole car from the outside, so still on the hood and the front left wing - 3 fresh chips (fortunately, not to the metal)!

From the moment of writing the first review, there was no particularly much time, so I will be brief.
After the summer, 2010, outstanding pretty hot, it is possible to evaluate climate control work on a solid five. The set temperature in the cabin is supported normally, while the fan operates on medium-sized circulation, on the country speeds (climate in AUTO mode), the air fence occurs from the street, in the city with free motion mixed, at low speeds - recycling. The difference with the temperature outside to the twelve degrees (no longer tried), the experiment was carried out for the sake of measurement using a room thermometer that did not in any way with the car.
With the onset of cool weather, the car will be transferred. The diagnosis of chassis was combined with this event. As a result, it was found that the front set of the front brake shoes and a rather large degree of wear of the front brake discs. No more servicemen alert anything (work was carried out on specialized serviceBut not at the "official").
Strengths:
- Pretty high reliability
- Low cost consumables
Weak sides:
- By default, low quality basic acoustics

Good day!
Finally decided to write a review about one of the now available cars.
At the time of purchase of Cerat, I owned the Renault Megan II of 2007, but since it shared her occasionally with his father and gathered her to give him, then the thought appeared to acquire a separate car. A little thought chose himself in future car Ford Focus 2, Well, or the same Megan, like me, only with an engine 1.6l.
Strengths:
- Reliability
- Spacious salon
- Economy

Return Kia 1.6 l., 122 hp (Kia Cerato) 2008
Car bought u. official dealer In January 2009. Prior to that, traveled on the products of the domestic car industry, first on the used, then in the new - got. The choice had to do between Mitsubishi Lancer X, Nissan Tiida., Chevrolet Lacetti. And, in fact, Kia Cerato. The final decision was influenced by a little more low price With a slightly richer list of options. Since I took the car in winter, then the first impressions of the winter.

IN winter Confidently trimming allows TCS.
Negative - in the cold season, a knock in the suspension appears, caused, apparently, the design of the racks. The stronger the frost, the louder the knock, when + temperatures disappears. The first winter was nervous, I got used to the second. At the official service, they were offered to change the racks (for free), but the guarantees for the elimination of the knock were not given - I decided not to bother.

- Good equipment
- Low price
- Economy
- Reliability
- Cheap consumables
- Good behavior on the road
Weak sides:
- Knocks in the pendant in the cold season

Review Kia 1.6 L - 122 hp (Kia Cerato) 2007
I went to this car only on our car industry. The last was new Vaz 2114, on which I drove exactly a year and 35000km. Did not do anything.But in order to increase its importance, I have long wanted a foreign car and was focused on the focus 2+. But messenger queues, and I am with uncle I'm going to the next city, where he could bring a friend in February 2008. Focus 2+. But at the same time being a deputy. The director of the dealer Ford popularly explained that for that kind of money you can take something else, but not Ford and rubbed the joke: as they say in Europe, - if Gypsy burns - the gold teeth and the keys from Ford will remain (big expensive cheap), this is the opinion of anyone I do not impose, because He himself did not go on these machines.
I did not argue and began to painfully choose what typewriter to buy me. After a month of torture bent to Serato, firstly, a dealer in our city, secondly, the carD. class, and good reviews of my two acquaintances.Came to the dealer, chose a complete set and color, wanted a light, but not white, mechanics, because The machine is stupid and not only on these machines, but also at all, who has less than 150 hp, besides climate control, for which separate thanks. Hit the hands and on the road.When leaving the cabin, I understood immediately that the typewriter with the ABS should be studded tires, otherwise I will ride as a kettle, did not say money, I bought Nokian HP-5.
The first sensations - I was delighted: the dynamics of super, the brakes and the system of course stability is one joy.Driving 1500 km, the fuse of the cigarette lighter burned down, but he left the 3-year-old son in the cabin himself, and he smoked on the street himself, he studied the system there, pressing his finger and did not let go until I got into the car. Changed quickly, though 240 rubles for checking electronics were called. To 2500 km appeared bugs in the front of the panel (the benefit himself sick his domestic carsThe experience was), bought the door seal on the VAZ 2110 and constructed it between the windshield and the panel - the beetle, and the sealing is not visible as if it should be. In the summer, when condo works at a maximum, 20-30 horses disappear somewhere, but as soon as the salon is cooled and the condo works at 20-30% - the horses return to the tabun of the engine. Starting in the winter no complaints did not cause anything I am glad, but I had to start after the night and -30c.
Strengths:
- Spacious salon
- Dynamics (at least on MCPP)
- Reliability
- Safety
- Inseignment
- Purebred Korean assembly
Weak sides:
- Noisy after 120 km / h
- Light salon
Review Kia 1.6 122l.s. Meh.CPP Set Sports (Kia Cerato) 2007
Understanding all social responsibility to the possible potential owners of this brand of car, I want to tell about my car, reflecting all the positive negative moments of possession of this car. So about everything in order!
Part 1. Choosing a car.
The options for the budget in 500-550 TR for the fall of 2007 were the following: Ford Focus, Mitsubishi Lancer, Honda Sivik, Mazda 3 (Sedan) and just that Nissan Tiida. Focus and Honda disappeared due to waiting queues, and the fact that they were available in the presence were much more expensive than the budget, Lancer walked due to the coming upgrade, Mazda 3 because of the cramped on rear seat (I checked all the cars sitting on myself, my height is 188 cm). Only the option of Nissan and Kia were seriously considered and in this dispute won rationality, in principle, both options are not bad, but Nissan was with an engine of 1.6 liters and dynamics 12 seconds to 100 km / h Pota 555 tr., And KIA C 1, 6 liters and dynamics of 10 seconds to 100 km / h in 515 tr. Sports complete set with full email sports kit, climate control IT.D. And in the body of the sedan (the beauty of the hatchbacks did not choose me, I wanted the classics, and the sedan from Tiid was not available and it looked like somehow). In general, it was decided to take Cerato, and to accommodate CASCO, OSAGO and the formulation of the multimedia center to the difference in the price, the benefit of the lack of a header in KIA was allowed.
I worked earlier in AV tomobile firms (sale, service), so when I chose the last having an idea of \u200b\u200bAV tomobiles, their operation, problems and cost I had to break your head - what can be obtained for your "up to $ 20 thousand".
Options were: Lancer 9th, Lacetti, Astra Classic, Aktavia Tour, Fabia.
Lancer 9th is expensive and modest (then, equipment);
Lacetti - American consumer industry (embarrassed that this brainchild General Motors), besides, heard about problems with the rail, galvanovka only under the arches and then on the one hand, although at the beginning he considered as a purchase candidate;
Astra Classic - too classic and equipment is weak;
Skoda - Nesofolkswagen only worse and cheaper and in general is also expensive (especially unnecessarily expensive then).
Cerato accidentally drew attention to when he looked through all the salons that came across (except Chinese and Soviet). At the time of purchase, I have not worked not in one of them, especially I bought a car from competitors)).
I read reviews as well - not very much they were about russian assemblyBut they do not enter our market. At first it was a practical choice, the ratio of price-quality-equipment, but when I got acquainted closer I was pleasantly surprised by the dynamics and side qualitieswhich at the level of a completely different price category, because I have a rich ride experience and on the cheapest and on very expensive and fast I was with what to compare with, but I thought that I had no money for this pleasure.
With its 1.6 gives 122 hp And still multi-list rear suspension Together with ABS + EBD makes it possible to feel confident at speeds - the car goes like a key. The car is listening to you, and this is nice. The only thing you remember when turning turns at high speeds that it is still a sedan who has a rear sv.
