I have a super car sales system

Chapter 080: You must consider the maintenance costs in the later stage ([-])

Lin Yuan felt that, in addition to the almost meaningless color, if you want to control well, have driving fun, and be fun, you must buy a three-series version with a short axle version and a manual transmission.

The E90325i in front of me, although it is a short axle version, is an automatic transmission. The AT gearbox cannot experience the suction texture when shifting gears, and the smooth control of the car, which is almost meaningless.

Based on the above two points, Lin Yuan thinks it is not a very classic.

"What's the matter with you?" Lin Yuan didn't care about the BMW [-] series, but wanted to know what happened to his brother's injury.

"Yes, how much is your BMW?" Zhang Wenbo wondered how much Song Tao spent to buy this BMW with broken glass and broken rearview mirror.

"No money was spent, others paid for it."

"No money?" Zhang Wenbo and the others were speechless.

"Yes, no money was spent." Song Tao began to explain the reason.

It turned out that Song Tao and others came out for lunch at noon, and Song Tao suddenly wanted to eat something else, so he didn't go to Lao Zhang's to drink stewed noodles, but went to another small restaurant.

Song Tao had just eaten two bites, when he heard the sound of fighting outside, Song Tao was curious about what was going on, so he came out to watch the excitement while eating with a plate.

Who knew that Song Tao had just emerged, when a wine bottle hit him on the head suddenly, knocking him down.

"You were going to watch the excitement, and you were spat on the head by a wine bottle?" Lin Yuan and the others couldn't help but smile bitterly. Song Tao didn't need to continue talking about the rest, but he could guess that the beating person had no money to pay, so he just took this car. The car arrived.

"Well, the person who accidentally injured me saw that his own car was smashed, and he didn't want to fix it anymore. He asked me to discuss whether he could get the car to pay the bill. As soon as I heard that it was E90325i, I agreed at that time." Song Taole's He Zhanda As if it was cheap, he asked Lin Yuan again, "I remember that we also have a similar BMW in our showroom, and the price is about [-] to [-]."

"Let me take a look at the car first." Second-hand cars pay attention to the condition of each car, and the price for each condition. Lin Yuan has never seen the condition of the car, so of course he will not talk nonsense.

Lin Yuan opened the thick car door and looked around the interior.

Among the top three German BBAs, the interior of Mercedes-Benz is luxurious, the interior of Audi is stable, and the interior of BMW is very simple to let the car owner concentrate on enjoying the driving pleasure. Dross.

In addition to the small steering wheel with a solid grip and a blue sky and white cloud logo printed in the middle, it can be adjusted up and down and forward and backward.

In addition to the fact that the seat supports the body very well, the wrapping is very strong, the front seat is electrically adjustable, and there is also a heating function suitable for the north, and the driver's seat has three sets of memories.

In addition to the anti-glare function of the rearview mirrors inside and outside the car, the instrument panel has no special features, is simple and clear, and can only meet the most basic driving needs.

There is not much storage space, and it is not as practical as Japanese cars.

The styling of the interior is simple to the extreme, without the luxury of Mercedes-Benz.

There are no configurations such as ambient lights, and there are no advanced domestic cars.

The configuration is not high,

The interior is even worse.

The steering wheel and the gear handle are coated with pulp,

There is wear and tear on the keys,

The edge of the seat has collapsed,

There are stains on the interior panels...

However, these are normal wear and tear, Lin Yuan reckons that it will look brand new after a little maintenance, but the most disturbing thing for Lin Yuan is that as long as the BMW model reaches a certain mileage, the engine must be prone to aging rubber valve cover gaskets and burning oil , oil leakage, gearbox oil leakage, water pumps are broken, water pipes are often cracked, suspensions and shock absorbers are also prone to oil leakage...

This BMW [-]-series looks to be more than ten years old. It must be riddled with various diseases. It must be thoroughly repaired, otherwise Song Tao will be thrown on the road at some point.

My brother, Song Tao, is also lazy, and when the time comes, a minor ailment will turn into a catastrophe. It will cost tens of thousands to overhaul the engine, and thousands of dollars to replace the water pump... The saddest thing is that even after the repair, the engine will still burn soon. The leak.

It had a fatal impact on Song Tao's not-so-rich life. Did Song Tao throw the car away, or did he throw it away?

Even if you don't mention these common problems, you have to change the glass, change the rearview mirror, and maintain the car. It's estimated that 15 to [-] won't be enough. The salary of No. [-] is not enough for Song Tao to repair the car.

From Lin Yuan's point of view, Song Tao didn't pick up a big bargain, but invited an uncle back, and he was more inclined to let Song Tao sell the car. Even if it was [-] yuan, it would be better than spending tens of thousands more.

Therefore, weighing the pros and cons, Lin Yuan was going to persuade Song Tao to give up this BMW [-] series, and help him choose a car in good condition when he has money.

……

Lin Yuan looked at the car once, and made a general judgment in his heart, but he didn't say what he just thought truthfully. He was afraid of hurting his brother's self-esteem, so he tentatively said: "This car is indeed a 2007 325i luxury sports BMW 3 Series. , I see that the meter shows 15 kilometers, and the landing should be around 52. If the car is in normal condition, the price is about [-], and now it is only in the early [-]..."

"It's about the same as I thought, hahaha." Hearing Lin Yuan's evaluation, Song Tao was extremely proud, and he finally guessed it right once.

"But look, the window glass is broken and must be replaced, the rearview mirror is broken and must be replaced, the paint surface is scratched and must be cleaned up, the interior is too dirty and must be repaired..."

Having said that, Lin Yuan deliberately paused to observe Song Tao's reaction, and found that he was still smiling all over his face, as if he didn't care about these problems.

Hey, this Song Tao really doesn't give up until he reaches the Yellow River.

Lin Yuan didn't want to remind him so tactfully, he simply gave Song Tao a ruthless: "You are also a second-hand car dealer, you should also know the common problems of BMW..."

Before Lin Yuan finished speaking, Song Tao kept nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice: "I know."

"I know you want more?" Lin Yuan was very angry at Song Tao's stubbornness.

"Lin Yuan, let me ask you, what conditions must a fun and cheap car meet?"

Originally, Lin Yuan wanted to tell Song Tao about the common problems of BMW, and let him know how difficult it is to serve an old BMW and how much money it would cost. Tiao Xin, who knew that Song Tao would suddenly come up with this question.

Of course Lin Yuan knew the answer, and he answered without the slightest hesitation: "If you want to control well, have fun to drive, and a fun car, you must have rear drive, a compact chassis with good texture, and excellent handling performance in high-speed cornering and slippery roads. The steering wheel can arouse our desire to play with it.

Whether it was before or now, BMW is the only cheap and fun second-hand car, not one of them.

Although this BMW is cheap, it is still more than ten years old. It still points accurately, the throttle response is positive, the suction texture of the gears and the compactness of the chassis are unparalleled. Even if it has been driven for 10,000+ kilometers, it can still be compared to BMW. In two words, it is not a little bit better than Civic, Fit, MG 6, etc. It can beat them by a few blocks.

However, what I’m talking about is just control, driving pleasure, and fun. Don’t expect it to be able to drive on the road at [-] revolutions, because the naturally aspirated power of this BMW [-]-series was not bad back then. Now it is not even as good as the Civic. "

"Lin Yuan, this is the car I want." Song Taole narrowed his eyes, he thought Lin Yuan's evaluation was too accurate.

Like Lin Yuan, Song Tao loves cars as a child. Unlike Lin Yuan, who can only watch rare things on the road, Song Tao has seen many car stunt shows and many WRC and other game videos.

Whenever he recalled the extreme cornering, exaggerated flying slopes, cool U-turns of the drivers, the miraculous driving skills deeply attracted Song Tao, and he fantasized more than once that he could also buy a car with good handling and fun, Become a driver that attracts everyone's attention.

However, the price that Song Tao can fall in love with usually costs more than a dozen or hundreds of thousands. Song Tao can't afford it at all, so he can only bury this dream in his heart and keep it until now.

In the restaurant, the moment he poked his head out and was spat on, Song Tao felt dizzy and almost fell over.

But when the perpetrator proposed to take the BMW E90 to pay for medical expenses and compensation, Song Tao was overjoyed again. He felt refreshed and free from any problems, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

"Lin Yuan, don't persuade me anymore, I have decided to want this BMW 3 Series."

Seeing that Song Tao had made up his mind, Lin Yuan sighed, and finally asked: "You want to get a fun car, but have you considered the cost of maintenance in the later stage?"

"Huh?" Song Tao's brain became hot, and he happily accepted the BMW 3 Series. At that time, he was happy to patronize, and he really didn't think too much about it.

"Let's not talk about buying new cars, only second-hand cars." Lin Yuan told Song Tao that unlike buying a new car, buying a second-hand car is not as simple as paying and transferring ownership.

For example, if I have 10 yuan and want to buy a car, even if the car dealer arranges the transfer of ownership and license plate, it is impossible for me to use all the 10 yuan as the car payment.

Need to buy insurance?

Want to add some equipment?

The most important thing is that the second-hand car must have left traces of the previous owner's use, or there are some faults and problems, or the five oils and three waters need to be replaced... In short, it must be repaired and repaired.

Therefore, for us ordinary people, to buy a second-hand car, we must set aside 30.00% to [-]% of the funds to buy insurance, add some equipment, and post-maintenance, etc.

With a budget of 10 yuan, it is not bad to have [-] to [-] real dollars to buy a car.

Of course, if you are rich, feel free.

"Are you a local tyrant?" Lin Yuan asked Song Tao.

"I'm not a local tyrant, I'm a local turtle." Song Tao feels that he is not as good as Lin Yuan. Although Lin Yuan is clean now, when NO. Forced predicament, but what about myself?Nothing.

Noticing that the smile on Song Tao's face had disappeared, Lin Yuan began to pursue the victory,

"Since you are not rich, what about the front windshield? What about the rearview mirror? What about the padding on the steering wheel and the shift handle? What about the collapse of the seat?..." Lin Yuan didn't mention the BMW burning oil , engine oil leakage, gearbox oil leakage, water pump failure, water pipes often cracked, suspension and shock absorbers are also prone to oil leakage and other common maintenance costs, just ask Song Tao what he can see and feel. Where did he get the money to deal with these things?

Song Tao bowed his head and remained silent for a long time, it seemed that he had completely listened to Lin Yuan's advice.

When Song Tao raised his head slowly, he suddenly said: "Lin Yuan, I know what you said is right, it's for my own good, but I don't have money, but I have a dream, in order to realize my dream, I will pay my salary this month in exchange for my salary." Windshield, pay next month, I will change the rearview mirror, pay next month, I will repair the water pump..."

dream?

Lin Yuan also wanted to persuade Song Tao to calm down and stop wasting time on this BMW [-] series, but Song Tao's words lingered in Lin Yuan's mind, and he felt that what Song Tao said was good.

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans have dreams.

What is the difference between people without dreams and idle fish?

Furthermore, a person's life is inherently very painful. For the sake of this, for the sake of that, who thinks for himself?

Lin Yuan heard from others that people nowadays focus on having no cars, no houses, and no offspring. You ask me, what should I do when I am old?It doesn't matter if I die and you plaster the wall with my ashes.

Lin Yuan thought about it, but felt that Song Tao's dream, which cost little money and had fun, was better than that and that?

"Brother, just do what you want, go after your dreams, I support you..." Lin Yuan was about to say that he could help Song Tao with his preparations, when a group of people came out from the gate of Hongda Famous Car Plaza.

These people were different from Lin Yuan and others in white shirts and trousers. They wore dark overalls, and some of them had oil stains on their faces and clothes.

Hey, isn't this Hou Gang and the others from the maintenance department?

Lin Yuan recognized Hou Gang and the others, and Hou Gang and the maintenance department also recognized Lin Yuan, and immediately waved and greeted with a smile: "Director Lin, what are you doing?"

Hou Gang and the others stood opposite Lin Yuan, with smiles on their faces, each mouthful of 'Supervisor Lin', handing over cigarettes to Lin Yuan one after another.

"I..." Lin Yuan glanced back at the BMW 3 Series, and was about to explain that his brother Song Tao had bought an old car. Hou Gang walked quickly in surprise, stared down for a while, and opened the door again. After checking it inside and out, he finally asked Lin Yuan, "Is it a BMW E90?"

"Yes."

"Sure enough, it's an E90. The car looks good, but it looks a bit miserable." Hou Gang said to Lin Yuan, "Open the hood and have a look."

"Okay." Lin Yuan bent down and pressed the switch, the front cover popped open, Hou Gang tilted the cover, and supported it in the air.

Hou Gang and the maintenance department all walked to the front of the car, and Hou Gang waved to Lin Yuan, inviting him to go too.

When there were no outsiders around, Song Tao looked at the closeness of Hou Gang and Lin Yuan, and asked Zhang Wenbo curiously: "Who are they? They seem to have a very good relationship with Lin Yuan?"

"You mean them? They are from the maintenance department." Zhang Wenbo remembered that Manager Song took everyone to drive to the maintenance department yesterday. Song Tao didn't go because he asked for leave. It's normal not to know Hou Gang and them.

……

Hou Gang and the others inspected the engine room carefully, and they were shocked when they saw it.

Because the engine leaked oil, the grease on it had formed a thick sludge. Hou Gang took the bottom of the lighter and tried to scrape it, but it didn't scrape. One can imagine what the leak looked like?

"According to my experience, there is no need to look at other places. The car is too old and in poor condition. It must be repaired, otherwise it will not be able to drive." Hou Gang said to Lin Yuan, "I guess there are many items for repairs. It costs tens of thousands outside, come to our maintenance department, you order parts yourself, we will waive your working hours..."
