Change cars

The old car has been driving for more than ten years. If you don’t change cars, there should be no problem driving for a few more years. The quality of the old car is still good. The main problems with old cars are doors and locks. The glass of the door fell off once, and the central lock didn’t work. A photo was left as a souvenir before selling it. You can’t wait until I’m 60 to drive a better new car, can you? So be determined to change to a car that is worthy of you.

The old car looks as handsome as ever.

My choice of car

My choice of car

The car that suits you is the best; the car that has been tested for a long time is the car of good quality.

This question is very tangled. I’ve been thinking about what kind of car to change a few years ago. SUV? Safe, maybe, but I don’t feel it. Fuel consumption, seats are not very comfortable, and I never go cross-country, so I don’t think about SUV. So choose a car. I can buy a better car, why should I wait until I retire to drive a better car, this car is for me, to meet the needs of you and your family, do not need to see other people’s faces and comments. Because I want to drive on the highway, I still want the car to be stable. I also saw all kinds of cars and tried to drive a lot of cars. When I choose a car, I must choose a car that sells tens of thousands of units, and has a sales record of at least three years. In this way, the quality of the car that has been tested in the market will not be so bad. So my choice is much clearer.

A certain brand of car, the car interior is very good-looking, but at first glance is attracted, the feeling is really luxury car feeling, quoted a price, I agreed to come down, the deposit will be paid. But a salesperson is very arrogant. Looking back on a test drive upside down, I felt that the car was not in my hands for a moment. I didn’t know if it was my problem or the car’s problem. There is also a 1.5-liter car that consumes more fuel than a 2.0 car. I don’t understand. A car with a small engine should have less fuel consumption. The point is that the salespeople almost “insulted” forced me to accept a lot of unequal treaties. The money is in the hands of employers and employees, so why should they be angry with you and your face? And let you make money. I’m not such a bitch. Say no firmly. He said, refund me the price, I said yes. But then he put off the delay for various reasons and told me to act according to the contract when he said softly. My heart was broken and the man kept his word. Now I can fully understand the feelings of a woman in Xi’an. Resolutely refunded the deposit. Although it took a long time, the deposit was refunded.

Sometimes I think, thanks to that salesperson, I have the opportunity to form an inextricable bond with 525i.

Why not choose domestic? if I didn’t encounter 525i, I would definitely choose 525Li. I feel that the domestic seat tastes better. I wish there were enough seats in the back row. A careful comparison of Li and I, except that the back door is longer, the interior strip is different, the other designs are the same. If you look at the car from the side, if the back door looks shorter than the front door, it is 525i, and if it is long, it is 525Li. During the test drive of the 530Le, when I made a U-turn, I felt that the tail flick was obvious, and then I asked the salesperson to find that the bulky battery was under the trunk, so the tail flick was severe. When I think about it later, the Li is longer, and it is estimated that the tail flick is stronger than I, and it is easier for non-four-wheel drive cars to skid when turning in rainy days. Once when I was driving down the highway on a rainy day, I felt that I was driving at a moderate speed. I gently stepped on the brakes. As a result, my car rotated 180 degrees on the ramp of the bend and didn’t hit the railing before and after. I found a big truck coming. Later, I felt very scared. If there was a big truck behind me at that time, I couldn’t imagine. But I didn’t feel anything when I tested it myself. So firmly choose 525i. Why choose 525 instead of 530? in addition to being more cost-effective, people in the factory know that it is easy for manufacturers to invest money and resources to improve design and quality, even if it is a small problem. The actual use of this design engine is very large. Used in a lot of cars. So the 525i looks like a very minority car in China. If you look at so many cars around the world, as well as the similarities with other models, I think there are a lot of parts. The quality should also be good, and it is also very easy to maintain and find parts in the future. Look at the experience behind me to see if I’m right.

It takes a worker half a year to calculate a car. Personally, for me, apart from missing the opportunity for a Chinese worker to work for half a year, we can also see that imported cars pay a lot of tariffs to the state. Also pay a lot of taxes for the country. As a Chinese citizen, it is not shameful to be able to pay more taxes for the country.

Production year

View the year of production

By the way, the survey found that if you look at the year of production of the car, if you look at the tenth number of the frame shown under the wiper, if it is J, it will be produced in 2018, if it is K, it will be produced in 2019. You can reason in alphabetical order. It’s the same with any car. It’s an international standard.

The choice of color

The color of the car.

There are so many white cars on the road that I can see that at least 40-50% of the cars are white. It is said that the white car is parked on the side of the road at night, so it is easy for other vehicles to see and it is safer. I have never had a white car, so I decisively choose white. During this period, many salespeople said that the imported car did not have white, so they almost gave up white and ran a lot of 4S stores until they met this 4S store.

Bargaining price

Bargaining-quarter-end promotion, clear model, firm tone.
The following part is not suitable for tuhao to read, because tuhao has money, talking about money hurts feelings, ?

At first I thought the price was very negotiable and I wanted to make a quick decision. But I realized I was wrong. I feel it is much more difficult to buy a car than to buy a house. So I was forced to run a lot of 4S, and it turns out that “comparison of goods” is reasonable. And talk about a good price, this sense of achievement after encountering and overcoming difficulties is much more important than the money itself. It turns out that I donated the money I saved afterwards. I also talked to the salesperson and felt that they were talking nonsense. I didn’t know if that sentence was true or false. I felt that I could generally believe it if I had no interest with him.

First of all, let’s talk about the car price: at first, I thought that the standard BMW 5-Series is a fixed price, in fact, there are many factors: 1) whether it is optional, such as seat heating, ACC, speakers and so on. 2) urban / regional problems, the house in the bustling area is expensive, the car will be more expensive, 3) the scale of the 4s store is large, he should get the best price, and 4) the main sales model of each 4S store is different. If you don’t meet his main model, the price can’t be negotiated. 5) the price of insurance, there are some articles in it. We get a 5% discount, but in fact, their 4S store can also get a 2-70% discount. 6) the price of decoration is available on Taobao. This counter-offer is generally acceptable for 1amp 3. 7) the price of service charge. Half of the counter-offer is acceptable.

Secondly, the timing of buying a car is also important. It was International Labour Day on May Day when we booked the car. The end of the month, the end of the quarter, the end of the promotion. At the end of the May Day campaign, when the 4S sales target was not completed, because their sales performance could not meet the standards, they could not get a 2-5% rebate from the manufacturer. So sometimes, they can give you 2% more so that they can complete the sales revenue. When you talk to several 4S stores, you can find that when the sales task of a 4S store is tight. In this way, the 4S store can get rebates from dozens of sets in front of it.

So the price on the Internet is very inconsistent. You can’t believe it all, and you can’t believe it. But it can help me to find some data to test the low price of the car.

Be sure to show your sincerity when buying a car again. I have found many times that 4S stores generally won’t give up their prices if my model is not completely certain, and they don’t want to spend time and energy talking with me. The 4S store will not negotiate the price to a person who is not all sincere. This is why when I make a phone call and send it to Wechat to ask about the price, I often encounter the problem of resistance. If I don’t want to take the time to go to the store, I don’t have enough determination to buy. The price gave me the lowest, and finally I didn’t mention the car, which is a big taboo of 4S. So if you want the best price, you need to show the greatest sincerity. It’s even worth an extra trip. To be able to make an extra trip, it costs only a few dozen yuan of gas, and it can be 5000 yuan cheaper, which is also a lot of income, so I am willing to.

Finally, it is time to negotiate the price. In fact, I am a very poor bargaining person. I never ask the price when I go shopping. Taobao, fancy, do not chat with the store to issue orders directly, at least 50% of Taobao orders do not ask to issue orders directly.

1) explore the bottom price. Quotation is a technical job, and I find that my counteroffer is also a technical job. After expressing enough sincerity, the 4s store needs to make a counteroffer after making an offer. If the price is still too low, once a 4S store thought that I was not sincere, they were not willing to receive us. So the price negotiation failed. There must be a reasonable counteroffer. 1) give back the lowest price on the Internet to 4SMagne2) or the price of this car bought by a friend of mine. Look at the reaction of 4S and know what the gap is. 4S asked me why I was still so low. I said what I said online, and I turned it out for him to see. The salesperson of a certain store said that there was this price at the best time last year, when it was a big promotion and so on. This confirms our target price. In this way, knowing the reserve price of the car, we have confidence. Once, a salesperson went back to report to his manager or applied for a price, saying no, which means we didn’t meet the right 4S store.

2) determine the target price.
Adding 5000 yuan or 10000 yuan to the lowest price on the Internet has become my target price. After setting the target price, I talked with three 4S stores and said that if the price could not be agreed, I could wait for another 3 months, because July and August was the off-season. Whether it is an existing car, whether there is enough vehicle information, they talk more about what model is, so screened out, their model is not his main model. There is only one 4S store left. Call them to show that they are willing to talk about the price, let’s go to his place to talk, we will talk about it with a normal heart.

3) lock the price:
At this time, they are very willing to take the time to talk to us, on the one hand, they want to achieve the sales target, at the same time, he feels that he has found the target customer, which is also his main model. Then continue to talk to the previous 4S. But when dealing with the 4S store, I found some clues about how to negotiate the price. At this time, the salespeople are not very busy and have nothing else to do to make sure they can spend their time on us, even if it’s just small talk. If he has other things or customers, the price is also very difficult to negotiate. So we chose to talk about it when we got off work. Talking about price requires teamwork, and at least two members work together. 1) be patient, you need to fight for a long time. 2) list the target price for each item. 3) never say cruel words or say dead words. 4) keep the mindset that you can wait a little longer if you can’t buy it. The two went to talk together, and when it came to getting close, one made an excuse to walk away, and the other firmly talked about a target price. If we can’t agree, the second person doesn’t need to talk about it any more. After the discussion, the second person came back to examine, “I haven’t agreed yet” to see the reaction of the 4S store. We can lower the price by 2000-3000 yuan as a whole and say “I can pay” or ask for bicycles, suitcases and so on. At this time, when the 4S store saw that it had been talked for so long, he also showed his sincerity: take out the prepared bank card. At this time, the first person said that he was a pussy, and the second person could pay right away. The deal is successful!

Pick up the car

When I ordered it, I knew it was an existing car. When I bought the car, the 4S store told me the frame number. I chose the frame number, and the salesperson said that the car was already in the customs. When they transferred the money to BMW, the 4S store could ship the car to the 4S store after paying the duty. Later, I felt that if it was not a current car, I probably could not continue to negotiate the price. It was later found that the car should have stayed in a warehouse in China for 2-3 weeks in addition to the transportation time. After looking at the frame number, mileage and appearance, I drove back, and I chose to believe it directly because I couldn’t understand the others.

When I saw it for the first time, it looked like a white horse very quietly.

The odometer shows 27 kilometers when picking up the car.

user’s experience

1. the control is very accurate and agile.
2. After closing the throttle, the car has a lot of inertia.
3. When driving at a slow speed, if you encounter a nearby object, you will automatically turn on the whole vehicle radar.
4. The seat, rearview mirror and steering wheel can be remembered and reset with one button.
5. The feeling of being pushed is very strong in sports mode.
6. Reversing film and television can detect the distance, and the vision is relatively large.
7. Brake fast and steady.

The sports mode dashboard is cool, cool and athletic.

Double screen intelligent touch center console

The center console is exactly the same as the X3. Pasted a toughened film!

Idrive

Idrive
All start-up functions with one click, especially in map mode
After pressing the navigation button, the place name can be handwritten directly on the disc. (write in Chinese)
Navigation system-A navigation system that you want to use all the time after you’ve used it at present. Also gave up Baidu map.

Idrive one-button operation touch screen, navigation can also be handwritten input! Everyone must have a try!

Fuel consumption

In addition to the high speed, I also changed my driving habit. I used to get a sense of throttle when I started to accelerate. Now when I am speeding up, count one, two, three, loosen the throttle for three times in a row, so that I can save 10-20% of the fuel consumption.

It is estimated that half of the 4500 kilometers is due to the high speed.

The fuel consumption of walking 6 kilometers in the city is 9.6.

Once the best result was 18 kilometers and 4.6 oils. there were more viaducts at that time.

CarPlay

CarPlay makes me much more efficient! After all, the car is a sharp weapon to improve efficiency. You must sharpen your weapon first. This is the Iphone when driving. It’s very convenient.
Professional voice recognition must be better than the car’s own. The main thing is that this car is much quieter than other cars, and the recognition rate is higher!
For example, “Hi Siri, I’m going to refuel” and “I’m going to park” can find nearby gas stations and parking lots. I like it very much.

CarPlay can only use these app, like QQ Music very much

Point the earth? Key can directly look at the weather, Dianping and so on.

When you are on the phone while driving, you can also quickly check the date.

Music

Music

You have to listen to music when you drive. Playing music is very convenient, especially the latest music, when playing, the lyrics are displayed 2 seconds in advance, and you can practice karaoke.
Because the sound insulation effect is good, the interior is very quiet. So when listening to music, even if there are no speakers, the bass effect is obviously enough? clear. This is very important. We can’t stop driving when we listen to music, right? I wonder if it is necessary for a luxury car to have a very good speaker.

QQ Music-I like the “I like” function

Shortcoming

Shortcoming

1. When passing the speed reducer, the chassis feels a little stronger, which is probably the reason for the explosion-proof tire.
2. The trunk is relatively narrow and I feel uncomfortable, so I can only put one large piece of luggage. It is said that there are batteries on both sides.
3. No sunglasses case.
4. Less configuration, no ACC, no seat heating, air conditioning cooling effect is general, not very strong. Maybe add some configuration in the future.
5. The automatic folding angle of the reversing mirror is too large to be adjusted.
6. It’s easy to forget to turn off the engine, but I forgot it once. The engine is too quiet. After many observations, I found that there were many reminders that there was no flameout: the sound of locking the car was completely different from the lights on the car.
7. It is not very convenient to adjust the skylight.
8. Honking is not very convenient. Maybe it’s for me not to honk.
9. The lid of a small object box next to the front seat can not be closed (it is found that the snap of the buckle will not pop up).

Saving energy and cars of the future

If you want to talk about the cars of the future, you can express your opinions.
Maybe I drive by myself with less fuel consumption and less emissions. Some people will say, why drive a BMW to talk about such a small amount of gas? is it too stingy? A car saves 20% fuel a year, which can save 300 litres of gasoline a year, which is not much for individuals, but there are 340 million cars in the country, which can save more than 100 billion litres a year. This is also a big number. One of the goals of the national strategy to develop new energy vehicles is to reduce emissions, which may not happen in one or two years. Electric vehicles may be able to drive more than 5000 kilometers a month and can solve the problem of charging, but they still have great market competitiveness, such as taxis, buses, shuttle cars, express vehicles and so on. However, on vehicles driving less than 2000 kilometers a month, hybrid cars can save more than 30% of gasoline and more than 50% of gasoline in the future. The reduction in gasoline is not the elimination of bus stops, two barrels of oil can continue to exist, and many jobs can be reserved for the country. Coupled with some hydrogen-fueled vehicles and the aging of China’s population in the next 10 to 20 years, there will not be much growth in the auto market, so Chinese cars may be such a hybrid market. multiple vehicles may co-exist in the market at the same time: hybrid-based, electric vehicles, hydrogen-fueled vehicles and ordinary fuel vehicles. In this way, the country can save a lot of carbon dioxide emissions, and 50% can be expected. So I estimate that there is still a big market opportunity for domestic hybrid cars, and SUV will slowly return to ordinary cars.
