Hello, everyone, the old driver of the car inspector has met with you again, I am the iron head of the car inspector. Because the car was always knocked under the lift when the car was repaired, everyone called me iron head after a long time. After various efforts, he finally became a second-hand car inspector. Welcome everyone to watch the fun facts about used car testing in this issue.
At this time, presumably everyone is going to play places, or go back to their hometown to meet with relatives, friends and classmates. It's not fun! However, Tietou is not so happy. On the first day of the National Day holiday, he has to move bricks and do work! There is no triple salary, but there is a little grievance in my heart! However, in order to make a living, continue to work hard in the days of national celebrations, such a person is more than an iron head! Anyone who knows the iron head knows that the character of the iron head is a rib. No matter what the environmental conditions, as long as the inspection of used cars, the iron head will be fully committed.
So this time I am looking at a D-class luxury executive car, Audi A8 . Although not as noble as Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7 Series, and they do not sell well, the A8 has features that they do not have, that is, the attributes of the former high-end official car, and the trips are all blundering. . Even now, some people on the fringe of the system still love this car, and the pricing of the A8 is not much cheaper than its rivals! From the perspective of other luxury car owners, the A8 is a car that makes it difficult to see the owner's depth!
What is the identity of the owner of this A8 today? According to the sales of the car dealership, the former car owner was a retired professor of a certain university, because he had to go abroad with his children and dealt with it! When it comes to sales, I don’t know whether it’s true or not. If it’s making up stories, then his level of making up nonsense is not as good as Iron Head! You can see that the wheels are refitted in the style of university professors! Calling a beast is almost the same! Looking at the side, it looks even more uncoordinated! Tietou really can't accept such an aesthetic!
However, the customer who bought this car thinks it looks pretty.And there are not a few 55T cars in Shanghai. The eldest brother said that the friend will get married in two days. If the vehicle is okay, he will drive it to pick up the friend. Well, let's not talk about the wheel hub, just be happy if you are! The iron head has begun to be tested!
Model year: 2019 A8L 55 TFSI quattro premium type
Ex-factory date: 2019-05
1KM new span 1KM guide: 1KM 1.2208 million
car dealers offer: 852,800
Checked around the car in a circle, there are only a few scratches on the exterior of the car, and there are basically no paint peeling and damage. The lower threshold of the main driver's door is scratched, which is nothing for ordinary cars, but at the level of A8, any small defects must be checked and recorded for the customer.
Take out the paint film meter to measure the thickness of the paint surface of the whole car, and find that there is a small area of putty repair on the lower right of the trunk lid, the paint surface thickness is about 800μm, it seems that there has been a small bump in the rear of the car. The other parts are all original car paint, and the appearance is generally good.
The engine compartment has not been cleaned up, and there is still a layer of dust on the surface. In terms of power, it is a combination of 3.0T V6+48V light hybrid, with a maximum power of 340 horsepower, a peak torque of 500 Nm, and an 8-speed automated manual gearbox. The official 0-100km/h acceleration time is 5.7 seconds. The most important thing about this car is its class and elegance!
Make sure that the cover hinge screws have no traces of screwing,Therefore, the cover is not removed and replaced. The fender screws on the left and right sides have also not been moved. The inner fender beam and the shock absorber seats on both sides have also kept the original factory condition. In fact, after the appearance is tested, you will know that there is nothing inside, and there is no damage on the outside. Damaged?
valve cover, intake manifold, exhaust manifold screws are intact, and there is no oil or water leakage around the cylinder. The manufacturing date of the whole vehicle wiring harness is the same as the vehicle delivery time. Matching, the claw fixing screws on the left and right sides have not been moved. At the same time, observe the internal timing chain track screws and there is no abnormality, this car has only been driven for two years and 20,000 kilometers, and it is still in a young state.
At present, the maintenance is also good. There is no carbon deposit and sludge inside the oil filler. The color of brake fluid and antifreeze fluid is still clear, only the battery is a little short of electricity. , Just open it.
To be honest, the sense of technology that Audi has always claimed, the iron head feels very empty, without the luxury of Mercedes-Benz and the experience of BMW's control, even in flagship cars like A8, it is just piled up The 12.3-inch LCD instrument, 10.1-inch central control display and 8.6-inch multi-function display are really not as straightforward as the Tesla giant screen.
Except for the traces of daily use, the interior really can’t pick up any problems. There is no water stained sand in the corners, the cotton and linen parts are not moldy and hard, and the metal parts are not rusty. So, soaking in water is impossible.
When I first opened the trunk carpet, I spotted a small part. At first I thought it was a tool called a beast to commit crimes, because I have encountered this kind of thing before.A closer look turns out to be the emergency pull cord of the trunk. After looking around, there was nothing unusual in the trunk. The rear panel and spare tire groove were all good, and there was no major rear-end collision.
OBD system does not have any fault codes. It is estimated that it was cleared when the car dealer was washing and preparing. If it can be cleared without repeating it, it means there is no problem. Reading the kilometer data is consistent with the meter display, and the meter adjustment does not exist. The static detection of the vehicle condition is still relatively perfect, it depends on the performance of the chassis.
After watching the interior, it started to rain heavily, so I moved the car to the repair shop to see the chassis. The condition of the chassis is also rare. Check the left and right swing arms, shock absorbers, half shafts and brake sub-cylinder one by one. The screws have not been removed. The swing arm rubber sleeves are free of aging and cracks. Oil spill.
The engine gearbox connecting screw has no disassembly and screwing feature, and the drive shaft and gearbox bracket screws are also in the original state.
The wheel hub is refitted, and the tire pattern looks relatively new. It is almost used when the annual review is on-line. The original wheel hub is replaced. How is this abacus?
The condition of the car is not complicated, and all the tests were completed in less than two hours. A brief summary: no major accidents, fires, blisters, no hoisting and maintenance of the engine gearbox, no meter adjustment for the number of kilometers , The 15 main structural parts of the whole car are all in the original state, and the only problem is the appearance of scratches and bumps, and the overall car condition is excellent.
The customer eldest brother has heard my report and said: OK, I will go through the transaction procedures with the sales. In fact, cars of this level are generally used for business reception and family use, and they are frequently used, but they are regularly maintained with a good degree of care, and they may even be taken care of by a full-time driver. The condition of the car is generally not too bad.
To buy such a used car, the requirements for the car condition are generally higher, and the price is not so calculated. Like today's A8, although it is a national five emission, the discount was not small at that time, but the new car will cost 1 million less on the road. Now the car dealers are quoting 850,000, which is similar to the market situation. The depreciation is less than 20 in two years. The luxury car is losing money! However, the price of 850,000 is enough for a low-end new car, and customers would rather buy this second-hand car. Why?
I saw a netizen said: Don’t speculate on other people’s behavior based on your class perception! This sentence is too thorough. Others must have their own reasons for buying second-hand cars. Is trying to save 200,000? Not necessarily. In many cases, other people's drawings may be used for cash withdrawal. If you still can’t understand it, just think about what netizens say!
The local reputation and reputation of the car dealership is pretty good. Although the price of the car is a bit expensive, the condition of the car is generally not a big problem, and it can't be said that this car dealership has many Conscience can only be said to be doing it in accordance with the laws of the market! There are not many high-quality second-hand cars on the market, but it requires more time, energy and money. If you are planning to buy second-hand cars, Tietou still recommends that you choose a large-scale car dealer with relatively standardized system standards, and then pay attention to the binding clauses of the contract. If there is no bottom line, please ask a professional third-party inspection agency to help you inspect the condition of the car to ensure that you are not deceived.
Okay, that's it for today's inspection sharing. I am a used car inspection technician from a car inspector. Like it or spray it if you don't like it. I repaired more cars and read less,It’s not well written, please bear with me. Car inspector, I would like to be your friend who knows cars best!
