Looking at the figure Galaxy Mk2 it is easy to get the impression that the solid car looks familiar. Of course, it comes to association with fellow Volkswagen Sharan and Seat Alhambra. The differences between the cars? These basically crash into the badge on the grill and tailgate. The appearance of the Ford can not say much. Body minivan is simple and ignoring minor stylistic changes, not the principal stage of development compared to its predecessor. The advantage of the model is large glazing. With it, the driver can enjoy high visibility in every direction.
Interior styling also is not particularly sophisticated. The center console of the second generation Galaxy is borrowed from the Volkswagen Passat B5, steering wheel and clocks are simple, and most interesting element is an analog watch placed on top of the dashboard. Stylists Ford, Volkswagen and Seat, however, does not depend on beauty and practicality. In this regard, the minivan is one of the greats!
7 seats and 2,610 liters – a model for other!
The car can accommodate up to 7 separate and full-size seats that allow you to diverse arrangement of the cabin. In rich trim seat can be rotated. The designers also thought about the vast space and mass storage compartments. With full set of passengers on board the Galaxy takes 266 liters of luggage. The 5-seater configuration, the trunk capacity increases to an impressive 810, a 2-seater monumental 2610 liters.
Galaxy went on pricing Ford in 2000. One and a half decade is a long time in the automotive market. It is no wonder therefore that the price of cars from the initial 110,000 gold whittled down to just 6.5 thousand. Models with the end of production (ie. 2006) are valued at up to 25,000. Galaxy in most cases is well equipped. Apart from the airbags, the ABS electrical package, the most commonly used units have air-conditioning, alloy wheels, radio or ESP.
Family in nature meant that choosing the new Ford driver focused mainly on the economical power units. The obvious choice was the 1.9-liter diesel borrowed from Volkswagen. Especially popular in the secondary market is the 130-PS version empyema. Much of power, unfortunately, is limited by the high mass. Galaxy weighs at least 1700 kg! As a result, acceleration of the top one hundred is up to 12.8 seconds. This combustion does not exceed 8, and route 5 liters of diesel. Also, there are often Fords driven by a 115-horse version of the 1.9 TDI engine. Those with slightly higher demand for fuel offer an even worse performance.
Galaxy 1.9 TDI : durability at a price performance
German diesel is an excellent choice, but under one condition. Motor must be well maintained and have a reasonable mileage. In this case, the most serious of the possible failure of a malfunction of the flowmeter. Unfortunately for Galaxy Mk2 1.9 TDI in good shape getting harder and harder. What does this mean? Copies intensively exploited will require pump-injectors and turbochargers regeneration and exchange of dual mass flywheel.
Fans of petrol engines will be easiest to find the Ford-powered 2.3-liter engine with 16-valve head. The unit has power at 145 horsepower and accelerates minvana to 100 km / h in 12.3 seconds. Worst burning the information relates. Located in benzyniak drinks up to 14 liters! What’s worse, very intolerant gas supply. Ford Motor has a reputation of assets. Aside fault ignition coils and pillows under the engine, do not happen to him any serious problems. Camshaft drive in Galaxy 2.3 16v uses a maintenance-free chain.
High mass Ford reflects not only on the capabilities of the car, but also the durability of the suspension. Weight affects premature wear rocker pins and connectors stabilizers. The low stability also have a bearing columns resorujących and rear wheels. Although the design of the rear axle uses wielowahaczy is quite modern, repairs not turn out to be excessively expensive. Repair MacPherson strut front mounted too cheap. Suspension Galaxy focuses on comfort. Minivan feels badly in tight corners.
Decent durable and cheap to repair
The first generation Galaxy model was not sustainable. The model like brothers with the Volkswagen Group’s owners pestering a series of minor faults. Fortunately, the modernization of engineers refined the quality. Most niedoróbek has been eliminated and left only a few problems. Relatively expensive in removing prove to be a failure of the gearbox. Most often they fall in the synchronizers or bearings. With the high mileage regeneration will require steering gear, air crashes happen, and the electrical system to fit actuators windows, central locking and ABS sensors. Passengers second and third row seats are complaining about the low performance of the heating system.
Construction Galaxy is not complicated. This has two advantages. Firstly, any failure to repair virtually every mechanic and without the use of specialized tools or computer. Secondly, spare parts are available at most automotive stores and have very reasonable prices. The car, which can have up to 15 years old, both are invaluable assets.
Galaxy has a few tricks up sleeve. Although not shocking good looks and drives like no car, offers practical and spacious cabin. A family car when selecting no way to downplay the possibility of carrying seven adults, or nearly 2,610 liters of luggage. If only the driver can be found on the secondary market maintained a copy of Ford’s equipped with a diesel engine, the purchase will prove to be a hit.
One of the tests was to start as soon as possible once the camera and taking pictures. In this respect, it was the fastest LG G4. Amazingly, the slowest was the Nexus 6, which lost a lot of the podium. 
then measured the quality Wi-Fi signal devices, znjadujących 15 meters from the router. This time, won the Samsung Galaxy S6, but HTC One M9 really narrowly missing out on victory. On the other hand, Asus Zenfone and iPhone 6 does not popisały into this category. 
For our smartphones often read documents in PDF format, so it’s important to open as soon as possible. Again, the best falls high-end Samsung, in turn, in the case of the Nexus 6 can be felt weakness Snapdragon 805 with respect to new construction. 
conclusive victory with regard to time video editing, suffered Galaxy S6. It is worth noting that in this test, the iPhone did not participate due to lack of identical applications in the App Store (VidTrim). The rest of the contenders has obtained very similar results. 
If you buy efficient smartphone, we expect after him, to ensure the smooth the game at the highest detail. In this category each tested equipment performed very well – it could not be otherwise. 
The above tests show that Samsung has really tried to improve the liquidity of a new flagship – “slimmed down” Touchwiz, memory UFS 2.0 and LPDDR4 RAM. More interestingly, the iPhone 6, considered by many as a model for liquidity and speed of action, proved to be faster than competitors from Korea – see if S version will be much faster.
