Chapter 0239: Phaeton II

Standing in the crowd, Zhang Chen nodded silently, agreeing with the old man's words.

If the most famous models are selected, except for those expensive supercars with ordinary appearance, the Phaeton, which is not as cool as Mercedes-Benz S and Audi A8, will definitely be on the list and occupy a place.

Because the Phaeton is a mirror for real and fake car lovers.

There is a joke that at an intersection, a Bora lost control and was about to hit two cars waiting for a red light at the intersection ahead.

At the critical moment, the owner of Bora saw a BMW on the left and a Volkswagen on the right, decisively killed the steering wheel, and avoided the BMW and hit the Volkswagen.

Afterwards, the owner of Bora apologized to the owner of Volkswagen, saying that BMW was too expensive to pay, and only if you hit your Passat, can you pay less.

The Volkswagen owner's eyes glowed with anger, and he asked sharply, "Have you ever seen a Passat with twelve cylinders?" This is Phaeton.

Therefore, in the circle of car enthusiasts, if a person claims to like cars, but cannot even recognize the Phaeton, then he must be a fake fan, and he will be despised and unable to take care of himself.

In Zhang Chen's view, it is still very simple to distinguish the Phaeton and the Passat. You can't look at the letters under the Volkswagen logo at the rear of the car, because some Passat owners like to be funny and stick them exactly the same, so look at the headlights and wheels.

The Phaeton's headlights are round and lensed, and you don't have to think about it at the price of a Passat.

There are also 7 wheel hubs, which are also one of the Phaeton's logos. Its price can buy four Passat hubs. No Passat owner is so brainless to change the headlights and hubs in order to install the Phaeton.

If there are really weird owners who have changed the headlights and wheels, then open the door and look at the interior.

The interior of the Phaeton does not look high-end at all, but it has a kind of low-key luxury, which is luxury, not the luxury of Mercedes-Benz.

As the top model of Volkswagen, a major selling point of the Phaeton at that time was that it came from a crystal factory that cost 220 million euros to build. It shared a production line with Bentley and was handcrafted.

Like the instrument panel, center console and doors, other models use hard plastic, and the dark areas that can be seen in the Phaeton are all high-quality leather and solid wood decoration, especially the solid wood is very luxurious. All are high-grade wood veneers made from roots over seventy years old.

All thirty-seven pieces of wood trim were all manually cut, which took 15 days of work, just for the precision to reach 0.1 mm.

In order to highlight luxury, the interior wood can also be customized according to the owner's preferences, which can be selected from red mahogany, red cedar, eucalyptus, poplar, walnut, and black poplar.

These things are good things. Even if the car is scrapped, it can still sell for a good price in the antique market after removing the trim.

Therefore, buyers who do not recognize the Phaeton's identity are not willing to spend hundreds of thousands on this large Passat.

Buyers who recognize the Phaeton are afraid to buy.

Because this one or four Phaeton uses an engine, Aisin 6-speed tiptronic manual transmission, 250 horsepower, front full-time four-wheel drive, zero-to-hundred-to-hundred-to-10-second acceleration, even the Corolla dual-engine can't run.

The high-speed fuel consumption is 10, the urban area is 17, and the average is 13.5. It is another calculation when the traffic jams. The real king of fuel consumption.

Fuel consumption is high, taxes are high, insurance is high, and private buyers can’t afford it.

Ordinary small car dealers are even more afraid that they will eventually lose their hands if they have no sales channels.

The Cosmopolitan Motor Co., Ltd. is different. It is backed by the listed Cosmopolitan Group and has a real wealth and a wide range of sales channels.

Dare to press funds, can press funds, time-consuming, don't worry about the problems that small car dealers worry about.

Zhang Chen looked at Phaeton, very satisfied with the recommendation given by the car dealership system, and left happily thinking about walking around again.

Not far away, I found another Fit. This is Honda's magic car. It's solid, durable and high-quality. It's a treasure in the second-hand car market. about to buy.

Seeing that the paint finish on the exterior is very good, Zhang Chen got interested and walked over quickly.

The crowd around Fitu was several times larger than the one next to the Phaeton and Fox rs just now. At a glance, the crowds were all big heads and small heads.

While squeezing in, Zhang Chen recalled the information given by the master-level used car appraisal skills, knowing that it was a 2016 1.5lexlicvt leading Fit.

Listed in May 2017, with a mileage of 18,000, except for a long time without maintenance, the exterior and interior are dirty, the engine variable box has not been dismantled or repaired, the core components have no hidden diseases, and the body frame structure has no accidents. According to Zhang Hu and others A few often talk about the original original paint, which is invincible, the car is in peak condition, the air conditioner is frozen, and the oil will fly.

Looking at the extreme condition of the car, Zhang Chen was tempted, but when he saw the system message behind him, he was stunned in the crowd.

The system message clearly pointed out that the fit of this car condition boutique is an illegal king.

Speeding, running the wrong way, running red lights, violating prohibition signs and other key violations have reached more than 40, with a fine of nearly 20,000 yuan, and the illegal score is as high as 45%.

Because there are too many violations that can't be dealt with, this Fit has been released from trial last year.

If you violate the regulations and get out of trial, as long as you are caught on the road, your car will be impounded. Only God knows if you can release it after the violation is dealt with.

According to the principle of "whoever violates the law, whoever will be punished", the original owner is responsible for dozens of previous violation records. That is to say, if the current buyer wants to deal with the previous traffic violation of this Fit, he needs to consult with the original owner.

Where can I find the original owner?

Even if the original car owner could be found, the original car owner paid tens of thousands of fines and made up four or five hundred penalty points. Buyers who bought the Fit now have to find a way to solve the big problem of getting out of the trial. The cost will not be a decimal.

In Zhang Chen's view, it is almost impossible to find the original owner to pay for it. Whoever buys this Fit will definitely lose it.

Zhang Chen reluctantly left the crowd and walked around the parking lot again. He found that the car conditions in the parking lot were very consistent with the information given by the car dealer system and the situation introduced by Zhao Yishou.

Don't look at the more than 100 cars in the parking lot, most of which are faulty, illegal and accidental cars.

Those best-selling models in good condition are estimated to have been bought in advance by people who are related, leaving only a pile of garbage.

Zhang Chen is more fortunate that he has a car dealer system, can pick up gold in the sand, and can find the Prado, Masan and Phaeton in the garbage all over the place, and finally came to the auction for nothing.

The time passed quickly, and everyone didn't eat their nervous lunch. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the shooting meeting officially started.

The auction was hosted by a local auction house in Seaside City. Not to mention Zhang Chen had never heard of it. Even many veterans who had been involved in auctions all year round did not know where this auction came from.

The venue for the auction was even more rudimentary. It wasn't arranged in any big hotel, big hotel, or conference venue. It was just a shady place in the parking lot.

A shabby and shabby background was set up in front, with the words "Auction" written on it, and two tables were set up as the auction site.

The ground was still full of land, and when the breeze blew, the dust flew up, and the unremoved weeds swayed with the wind, as if mocking the people who went to the auction.

Staring at the scorching sun above and watching the car for so long, everyone was exhausted, and the lack of food exhausted everyone's energy, sweating profusely and languishing, eager to start the auction early and go home early Eating a big meal and sleeping with the air conditioner on.

The on-site situation of the auction is a bit exaggerated, but it is not so shabby in reality, but exhausting everyone's spirit is a common method used by some unscrupulous auctioneers, that is, people who want to participate in the auction can't stand it, so they put some Buy the car in poor condition and achieve the goal of making money.

The staff in front were still preparing, and a dense crowd stood in the middle of the venue, with the hot sun above their heads, their stomachs growling with hunger, and everyone weakly communicated with each other and endured torture.

Zhang Chen, Wang Keqiang and Jiang Fangyan met.

Apart from being hungry, Zhang Chen was in good spirits.

Wang Keqiang and Jiang Fangyan suffered serious crimes, especially the daughter of Jiang's group, how could she have suffered like this?

The sweat and dust on her face turned into a little cat, not to mention that the little belly was hungry, and she stood beside Zhang Chen and swayed, as if a gust of wind could knock her down.

"Zhang Chen, I've seen a few good ones. I'll pay more attention to them later." Wang Keqiang said weakly about his achievements. novelbuddy.com ~ a Nissan Qashqai, a Buick Yinglang.

Zhang Chen retrieved the information provided by the car dealer's system and compared the above information, and found that either the car was in poor condition, or it was the king of violations, or it was burned by blisters.

It seems that under the influence of Pharaoh's involvement and hunger, the level of the original is not very high. Zhang Chen passed all these models in his heart and decided to focus on the Phaeton, Mazda III and Prado.

At the beginning, Jiang Fangyan, who shouted that she wanted to see the car, lowered her head and didn't speak. She didn't understand used car identification at first. She was watching the fun in the parking lot, and she was tired and hungry. Things were forgotten in Cloud Nine.

"Okay, okay, everyone be quiet, now the auction officially starts." In front of the crowd stood two young men, uniformly wearing snow-white shirts, waving the gavel in their hands and shouting at the crowd, "The auction's first One car is a 2016 3.2-liter automatic tx-lnavi Prado, number 0001, licensed in March 2017, with 76,000 kilometers of miles…”

The first car turned out to be the Prado with a distorted hood. Zhang Chen was a little excited and listened to the auctioneer's introduction, especially the price. The original price of the Prado was about 600,000 yuan. The used car market is very valuable. New 81 Chinese website updates the fastest computer: https://
