This self-owned brand off-road vehicle has become the envy of many cars, including Japanese brand models known for their high retention rate.
Needless to say, you should already know what kind of car it is. He is the first hardcore off-road vehicle under the independent brand Great Wall Tank - Tank 300.
Although the tank 300 has not been on the market for a long time, about a year ago, its reputation has long been out. In addition to excellent off-road quality, its retention rate is a commendable place. This off-road tough guy can be said to be the miracle and pride of the retention rate of its own brand models.
In a sense, other models are called retention rates, and tank 300s should be called "appreciation rates", because used cars sell much more expensive than new cars.
Used cars are more "popular" than new cars?
Recently, I went to the Shanghai used car market for a turn, when I saw the price of the used car tank 300, I was really surprised, my jaw almost fell to the ground, the price of the used car was much higher than the price of the new car.
It used to be said that there was no money to buy a second-hand car first, and then buy a new car when the money was enough, which was good, if you can't even afford a new car, then the second-hand car is even more unaffordable.
In one booth, there were two used tanks for sale, the 300, one was last May, which currently travels 5,000km, and the front bar is equipped with a winch for 268,000 yuan. The other was a car from June last year, which had already traveled 6,000km without any additional kits, and was priced at 249,800 yuan. Seeing such a price, I don't know how everyone feels?
As can be seen from the exterior and interior, both cars are the Tank 300 Off-Road Edition Conqueror, which is the off-road version of the high-end model. At present, we can see from the official APP that the naked car of the tank 300 off-road version of the Conqueror is priced at 213,800 yuan, the front winch is 5,000 yuan, and the AT tire is 2,000 yuan. According to the configuration standards of the above two second-hand cars, plus miscellaneous costs, the landing price of the new car of the ordinary tank 300 off-road version conqueror is about 240,000 yuan, while the cost of the version with the winch is several thousand yuan more, but the landing price of the new car will not exceed 250,000 yuan.
It can be seen that the tank 300 off-road version of the conqueror uses a second-hand car (6,000km) for about half a year, which is priced at about 10,000 yuan more than the new car, and the version with a winch (5,000km) is nearly 20,000 yuan more than the new car.
This means that after the first owner got the car, he "white prostituted" for half a year, and played enough to change hands not only did not lose money, but on the contrary, he could make a small profit. Of course, how much the owner can earn is also related to the bid of the car dealer when receiving the car, perhaps the owner did not make money at all, or even slightly lost money, but the car dealer unilaterally raised the price, which is unknown.
Used car website offers are equally strong
Curious, I opened several more authoritative car platforms and second-hand commodity trading platforms, did not know, a look frightened. On a certain fish, the new unlisted tank 300 off-road version of the Conqueror, plus AT tires and winch, travels 60 kilometers, the original original paint, the price of not including taxes is 238,000 yuan, which is nearly 20,000 yuan more expensive than the new car.
In addition, in a well-known car website, the tank 300 off-road version conqueror that was branded in October last year, and the off-road version conqueror (plus winch) that currently travels 12,000 kilometers, is priced at about 240,000 yuan, which is basically similar to the landing price of the new car. There is also a license plate in October last year, currently driving 8,000 kilometers, without any additional kits, priced at 235,000 yuan, which is not much different from the landing price of the new car.
Judging from the above used car cases, the tank 300 is indeed a "value preservation god car", or even an "appreciation god car". The first owner had fun for half a year and then shot, can not say that it is still stable, but at least it will not lose too much.
Should I buy a new car or a used car?
So for friends who want to buy tank 300, should they wait for months to pick up the car, or directly buy a ready-made used car? Personally, I think so.
First of all, the new car, the tank 300 from the booking to the official pick-up, it does take several months to wait, for the "car buyer" people, the waiting time is indeed very painful. However, there are also bitter and other benefits, such as the quality of the new vehicle is guaranteed, do not have to worry about whether the vehicle is "injured", the price of the new car is transparent, do not have to worry about whether they will pay more money, and the most important thing is to enjoy the welfare policy of the first owner.
On the contrary, if you want to buy a used car, you can definitely get the car very quickly, and you can also enjoy the fun of off-roading early. But be clear about the following:
First, the tank 300 itself is a hard-core off-road vehicle, after the first owner got the car, it is not ruled out that it is possible to climb the mountain and cross the river to play with mud, so the vehicle has no "injury" left by the off-road, as an outsider it is almost difficult to see in the appearance.
Second, the price of second-hand cars is high, and whether you can accept it calmly in your heart when buying a second-hand car at a high price, or whether your love for this car has made you not care about spending more money to buy him, which you have to think about.
Third, the price of the tank 300 used car is uneven, the car condition is different, and whether its quotation is reasonable or not still needs time to test, after all, this car has been on the market for more than a year. With the increase in market ownership, the price of its used cars "ebb and flow", which is also very likely.
Fourth, if you buy a second-hand car, then the after-sales policy enjoyed by the first car owner, we may not be able to continue to enjoy. If you buy a used car, especially a used car like the Tank 300, which is mostly a "quasi-new car", you must ask clearly in this regard.
At last
In short, you need to be cautious when buying a car, especially a used car. If you are not particularly anxious to get the car, I would recommend waiting for a few months to get a tank 300 new car, but it is a little longer, but other aspects, such as price, quality, etc. do not have to worry. If you are eager to buy a tank 300, then the second-hand car is not impossible to buy, provided that you know the car will know the car, or there are reliable resources around, the price is not too outrageous, then the second-hand car can also be considered. If it were you, would you choose a new car or a used car?
