Which option to choose when buying a car

When buying a car there are doubts about the different options: to do what they need, is to choose them or not. Try to understand.
About airbags, power windows, power steering to explain something does not make sense. A person who has something to do with the discussed mode of transport, has at least a general idea of ​​the most common options. So I want to dwell on the more difficult moments.
First let's define the choice of the type of engine - diesel or gasoline. In general, diesel engines differ from gasoline fuel economy and increased power. Recall that large vehicles are diesel only. But despite these advantages, we should not forget that diesel fuel is divided into categories, depending on ambient temperatures. For such an engine requires constant riding in the cold season to change the fuel for the weather.
Of course, there are defrosting and antihelium, but it requires additional resources and attention to his car. The cost of diesel fuel is currently at some gas stations have become a bit more than the cost of fuel Au-95. The diesel version of the car will cost, of course, more expensive and may include a sport package. Therefore, if you want to think less about his "iron friend" and too much power to anything, it is best to choose a gasoline engine.
We now proceed directly to the options. What is the difference between air conditioning and climate control? Air conditioning can be included in the basic package, and for the climate control will have to pay. Why not? Ironically, the air conditioner in the car, as in any other place, fulfilling its primary function - cools the air, well, slightly dries it. A climate control as a premium option maintains the set temperature - and has a price. What to choose: save or comfort - it's the buyer.
In the beginning I let slip about the simplicity and the prevalence of airbags. But here we are waiting for the opportunity to choose: front, side, head, knees. If you approach this question in the most rational, then the option "front + side" will be most successful, it will protect against severe impact and the driver and passengers at the front and rear seats.
Why do we need rain sensor and light sensor? It began to rain - wiper blades are automatically perform its function. The stronger hydration of glass, the more likely trigger brush. Becomes dark, for example, when entering a tunnel - headlights turned on automatically.
What is Cruise Control? In order to maintain a given speed is not necessary to press the gas pedal. It's good when traveling long distances on the open road. When driving on busy roads is useful active cruise control, which has all kinds of sensors that allow you not only to maintain a given speed, but also accelerate and brake, based on the position and maneuvers of other road users - drivers can only turn the steering wheel. This option is found on a very small number of models.
Parktronic (parking sensors) needs no introduction, but as with most options, the need to get used to his aid.
And what about the rear view camera often heard: "In it there is nothing you will not see! It is easier to park, just turning back - the old fashioned way. " Many who used to travel without all these modern "gadgets," strongly criticized these options, but I have a driver with little experience is even "for".
Dynamic stabilization system, which includes anti-lock, traction and other subsystems, helps keep the trajectory of motion. Another security will never be over.
Additional running lights, of course, create additional lighting, but their inclusion in the dark under conditions of poor visibility and in tunnels instead of the low beam headlights on a fine not save.
Headlight washers many call useless option, because it just pours water, and the dirt mechanically not schischaya.
Power seats make life easier not only to the driver, but his passenger a comfortable transformation. Ventilation will seat more comfortable for drivers and their passengers during long car trips.
Heated mirrors and seats will bring to life a little more comfortable motoring. A rear-view mirrors with automatic anti-dazzle will not allow irritated from too bright headlights of vehicles traveling behind you.
At the end is not entirely clear decipher the term "immobilizer" - an internal alarm system to help ordinary alarm. This option has already managed to prove itself and it is quite common.
And there are several types of signaling: single-sided, closed-loop (with auto engine, with GSM-module with color display). Of course, the alarm system with GSM-module is an advantage - unlimited distance action. You can certainly do, and one immobilizer, but insurers, such as CASCO require drivers to install and signaling. In general, if you have an expensive car, it is better to install it.
In conclusion, I want to note that not every option will suit to a particular configuration - from the basic to the most complex, true-to-order but the ideas can become reality.
