In 2014, I drove my 8-year-old Polo to look at the GL8 classic model and thought to myself that it was so beautiful! It would be great if there was one in the future. In a flash, 8 years have passed, and in 2022, my dream finally came true and I became the owner of GL8!
At the beginning of this year, the old man was sick and had difficulty in legs and feet and could no longer drive by himself. He needed others to help him get in and out of the car. A car with a large door and a large space became a necessity. Unfortunately, I have been short of money in the past two years and can't afford a new good car. I originally planned to buy a 7-seater Old Tuan or an Odyssey before 2008. However, compared with the side opening, it is still not as convenient as the side sliding doors. After thinking about it, I finally planned to buy a GL8.
It just happened. It took two weeks to transfer almost all the local second-hand car dealers. The more you look, the more you feel unsure. The mileage has been adjusted, and the maintenance records and accident records are dense. The car dealer opened his eyes and insisted that he drove just like nothing happened. Naturally, I didn't dare to step on the mine, so I could only hope to wait for a car in good condition.
So at the end of August, when I was browsing WeChat daily, I accidentally found that Nono had a GL8, which is the 2014 executive version of the 2.4L classic model. It was the first batch of 2013, with a 6-speed gearbox with a speed of 48,000 kilometers.
immediately contacted the customer service and asked them to take all the appraisal reports and reshoot all the details and defective videos, everything was in line with expectations. For me, who hasn't encountered a good source of cars for several months, it's like a long drought and a rain. I ordered decisively and prepared for 3 days. It took only one day to ship the truck from Shanghai to Shandong!
I went early the day I picked up the car. I saw a board truck coming from a distance from the highway exit. This should be it!
took it home and cleaned it up, put it with the old senior POLO, it felt so good.
After repeated research, the actual table was 48,000 kilometers, and there were scratches and spray paint around, so there were no problems inside. Although the price is a bit more expensive than the price of the same mileage in the same year and the same time, it cannot hold on to its good condition. A second-hand car is just one condition and one price. If it is in good condition, it is worth it!
was taken back for the first week and was carefully experiencing the powertrain and chassis status. It really feels great to open! The engine transmission has no abnormal noise, and the engine accelerates and roars sounds! It's very flexible to travel in the city! Wow hahaha! The children and the elderly were very satisfied, especially the youngest son was so happy! Not many photos were taken, they were all taken casually.
What you need to adapt is that the car is bigger than the Polo, so you have to pay more attention when moving. Then the fuel consumption is higher than that of the Polo. After all, for such a big car, the cost caused my toothache when I filled it with a tank of gas for the first time.
But no matter what, with GL8, the whole family has much more convenient travel. Seeing my family happy, I was also very happy, and the money was worth spending! I hope everyone can meet the car they like in Nuonuo and their dreams come true as soon as possible.
