Hello everyone! The old driver of the car inspector has met with everyone again, and I am a used car inspector. Because the name and the pronunciation of the onion are very similar, over time it became my nickname! I have been an auto mechanic for five years, and after a lot of training and assessment, I have become a part of the car inspector, and I try my best to avoid everyone's car purchase risk is the value of my existence.
Speaking of golf, it's the god car of god! It has been 48 years since the first generation of listing, is a great contributor to volkswagen, but also the foundation of Volkswagen's invincibility, with annual monthly sales of more than 10,000. But with the addition of a new energy source, this car has become a mess! Tried various ways to succeed, first in 2015 engaged in imported plug-in hybrid, the price is too high, defeat! Then 18 years into imported pure electricity, the endurance is only 255 kilometers, the price has not dropped, continue to lose! Then there is the localization in 19 years, and the endurance has been increased to 270 kilometers, the result? No one wants to break a bone!
And today's customers are so rare, to buy such a small number of surviving second-hand golf new energy, or a personal car source. The customer said that buying this car is to travel in the city, and he also roughly understands the situation of the car. The owner bought it in August 2020, drove 20,000 kilometers, no big problem, that is, there are two faces to paint. These customers are acceptable, and the price is negotiated, but the customer is in the field and has not seen the real car. For the sake of safety, I entrusted us to explore the reality first.
Onion received the task and immediately set off to meet today's protagonist near a logistics park. After a brief greeting with the owner, he began to enter the tense testing session. As the old rule goes, first provide the basic information of the vehicle.
Vehicle year: Golf New Energy (import) 2018 e-Golf
Factory time: 2018-06
Playing time: 2020-08
Meter mileage: 20475KM
New car guidance: 240,800
Owner quote: 100,000
The spray paint of the front bumper is still easy to see, and the fixing screws have been disassembled, and the gaps between the two sides and the fenders are not consistent, most of them have been replaced! This is to pay attention to whether the structural parts inside are injured!
Open the lid and we can see the motor inside, because it is a new energy vehicle, so this car has no engine, but there is a gearbox, which is slightly different from other pure trams. The cabin looks relatively empty, and the parts are completely unobstructed.
The heat dissipation system is much the same as the oil truck, the water tank frame is not deformed, repaired or replaced, the screws have not been moved, or the original state. The radiator and fan inside are also well kept.
The front impact beam below is also intact, without impact deformation and disassembly marks, which means that there has been no major accident in front of the front of the car. The replacement of the front bumper is just scratching!
The headlights on both sides are still the original accessories provided by Audi, the manufacturing date matches the date of the vehicle leaving the factory, and the fixing screws are also untouched. Since the headlights are all intact, it further confirms the judgment that Onion just made.
The left and right fender beams, shock absorber seats and rotation parts are also well preserved, and there is no trace of deformation cutting sheet metal putty repair. The surface of these parts is very smooth and delicate, if cut and repaired, there will be uneven roughness or irregular solder joints. Of course, there are some hand-built cars or American-made cars that will be different, which needs to be judged comprehensively.
Because the car does not have an engine, it is not necessary to focus on it, and as long as the motor is not damaged by external force, there will be no problem. After confirming that there was no water in the cabin, we continued to look back at the exterior paint.
The front cover and the entire left side are still original paint, the thickness of the paint surface is around 105μm, and the two doors have not been removed. Good signs!
The entire right side is also the original paint, only the trunk cover did sheet metal scraping putty spray paint, just a 16-inch computer screen area is the original original paint ah, unfortunately! There should have been a rear-end rear-end in the back, and there was also a case of disassembly and painting on the rear bumper.
Looking at the rear wall plate and the trunk bottom plate of the inner layer, they are all brand new and cannot be repaired, so the rear rear end is not serious, and the trunk cover is still the original factory accessories. The overall appearance is still very good, although the back is a little flawed, but it does not affect anything, after all, the car is running outside, a little bump is also very common.
Entering the car, the interior is the same as the fuel version of the previous generation of golf, and the central control is tilted to the main driving side, but the feeling of driving is obviously different! The car is not clean, but this is all secondary, 40 yuan to wash the car thing, the important thing is whether the car is flooded.
The seat skeleton is dismantled, and there are many kinds of situations in which the seat is removed, which may be a line problem, or it may be equipped with a fully enclosed foot pad, and it is possible to renovate the interior, and the most feared situation is to remove the seat to clean up the water and dirt generated by the soaking water. It is impossible to distinguish whether there is water soaking in the seat alone, and it must be combined with the comprehensive judgment of the surrounding detection.
There is a little rust in the direction machine pipe column, but the screw next to it has no disassembly marks, which has a great chance of natural rust, because there is no anti-rust paint on it, and it is not excluded that the owner spilled a little mineral water on it.
The skeleton in the dashboard and the dashboard are normal, there is no disassembly and rust, and the possibility of an accident detonating the air bag in front can be ruled out.
Up to the interior ceiling, down to the threshold gap wiring harness has not found the characteristics of soaking water, seat belt date can also be on, the interior safety box inside is also spotless, on the whole, the car does not exist at all the possibility of soaking water.
Finally, the chassis test, but also in the process of rising can be seen, the gearbox and the steering machine have no traces of leakage, after all, the car is less than two years old, the number of kilometers is not high, if there is really oil leakage, it is a bit abnormal!
The connection screws of the gearbox and the motor matching the workmanship have no disassembly marks, and the oil pan screws are also untouched, indicating that the working conditions are no problem.
The front and rear subframes and four-wheel suspension of the car are intact, and the color of the four shock absorbers is also very new, with no disassembly and leakage marks.
The front and rear longitudinal beams and rear anti-collision beams are also in the original state, if there are still doubts about the accident in front, you can now be completely assured!
The four wheels do not have the common scratch off the paint, the tires are still original, the brake discs and brake pumps are brand new, the half-shaft ball head does not crack and seep oil, it can be said that the chassis is normal.
The whole car was tested, into the summary time, the golf new energy car is in very good condition, no accidents, no blisters, no major repairs, only a small rear-end collision occurred in the rear, the trunk cover sheet metal spray paint; and then removed the main driver's seat maintenance line, there is nothing abnormal! Tell the customer about the result of the phone, the customer said that it is much better than his psychological expectations, thank you for the onion's hard work to move the bricks, let the onion hurry back to rest! The follow-up progress, the onion is unknown! There should be no surprises about a smooth transaction.
Onion feels that Golf New Energy itself is a niche unpopular car, which is subject to many new forces in the country, coupled with price endurance and other restrictive factors, it is not very popular in the market, the amount of ownership is pitiful, and the new car is discontinued, which also leads to its retention rate is quite miserable. Say a word that customers don't like to hear, in the future to the second-hand car market to sell, car dealers may not necessarily receive, people are not willing to smash their hands!
At present, there are only four car sources on a second-hand car platform, no ha pick, look at their price, about 100,000, or two or three years of quasi-new cars. If you compare the official guide price alone, you will find that it has fallen by more than half in two years, which is really a loss to vomit blood! However, the new car is certainly not sold according to the guidance price, look at the factory time and license time of today's car to know, the difference between the middle of two years, who will buy if you don't break the bone? No matter what, the people who dare to get started are good men, and I wish you a happy car!
Well, today's test sharing is here, I am a used car inspection technician in the car inspector. Like it, spray it if you don't like it. I repair more cars, read less, and write badly, please bear more responsibility. Car inspector, willing to be your friend who knows the most about cars!
