Chapter 123 Parallel Imported Cars, Big Trade Cars

"There is money and leisure. ”

"I have a lot of cars at home, and I want to try them. ”

"I know a little bit about cars, and I can find problems in time. ”

"The price for feelings is too high. ”

......

Zhou Bing was stunned, muttering in his heart the conditions that Fang Yuan said, filtering them one by one to gauge whether he met the standards.

In the end, Zhou Bing felt that except for a little money and a little better mentality, he didn't meet the conditions at all in other aspects.

Especially if you don't understand the car, even a few grams can not drive well, in case you can't see the problems that have occurred, the irreparable damage caused by the car is a trivial matter, and it is dangerous to involve your own safety.

"I want to worry, not bother. Please come back to such an uncle, not playing with the car by himself, but playing with the car by himself. Zhou Bing smiled bitterly, he felt that although Fang Yuan, a young man, was young, he did not have the impetuousness of young people, and he was very reliable in doing things for others, so he still listened to him, don't spend millions for feelings, but buy home an ancestor who needs to be served in every way.

Zhou Bing thought seriously, since the Range Rover is not suitable for him, then this Toyota Tantu leather should always be suitable, right?

At the gate of Tianhong's second-hand car market, Zhou Bingke listened to Fang Yuan very seriously, this Toyota Tantu uses a truck chassis, plate suspension, simple structure to nothing to break, durable leather is not pretentious.

Toyota's engine, gearbox, etc. are also known for being reliable and durable, with low fuel consumption and cheap maintenance.

In addition, Toyota's fuel tank is huge, the space is huge, it is a long-distance crossing weapon, it is easy to run thousands of kilometers, and if you want to go out to play in the future, you don't have to worry about pulling more things to put down.

After thinking about so many advantages, Zhou Bing felt more and more that Toyota Tantu was suitable for him.

The reason for this is that Zhou Bing thinks that after all, he is old, and he wants to take advantage of his physical health and financial wealth to complete the things he has been talking about before.

Since the dream is tied up by reality and cannot fulfill the wish, the drea car in his heart is not suitable for him, and he can't survive if he is not crazy, Zhou Bing is ruthless and simply puts the goal on Toyota Tantu.

"Fang Yuan, how do you say this Toyota is on the road?

Looking at Zhou Bing's hot eyes, Fang Yuan shook his head slightly, "Not for you." ”

"Not suitable for me? Why?" Zhou Bing was anxious, the Range Rover just now had a lot of small problems, and it was not suitable for himself to understand, this Toyota Tantu leather is durable, easy to maintain, fuel-efficient and worry-free, it can't be more perfect, it is very in line with the conditions Fang Yuan said.

Zhou Bing's emotions were a little excited, and Sun Yanming hurriedly poured him a cup of tea to calm him down.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little confused. Zhou Bing quickly adjusted his emotions and quietly waited for Fang Yuan to explain.

"This Toyota Tantu is really good in terms of quality, I don't have to run to the garage in three days like the Range Rover when I buy it, as long as I maintain it correctly on time and drive carefully, maybe I will only add glass water for many years. Fang Yuan explained that the reason why Toyota Tantu is not suitable for Zhou Bing is different from Range Rover, not because of quality, but because of other problems.

"Other questions?" At this time, not to mention that Zhou Bing was confused, even Liu Liang and the others were very curious, wanting to know what was going on.

"Yes, for other reasons. "Fang Yuan is all the way to drive Toyota Tantu, it has a 57-liter V8 engine, zero hundred acceleration 687 seconds, driving this time, this Toyota Tantu to Fang Yuan feels that the displacement is large, the power is strong, V8 large self-priming high-speed power is endless, very easy to drive, not like a super giant at all.

However, with a body length of 58 meters and a wheelbase of 37 meters, it is difficult to make a U-turn on the road and merge with such a large block, and it is particularly difficult to drive in congested roads and park in and out of the basement.

Poor technology, people who are not used to driving big cars are watching the parking space not parked in, and when merging the line, they will not pay attention to other cars to the road, usually a bend that can pass, now it is necessary to toss for a minute, other vehicles can be lined up 100 meters away, hundreds of people watch their own U-turn, who can stand it? Helpless to the brain is the urge to smash the car.

Zhou Bing is used to driving a body length of only 4515 mm, wheelbase 2600 mm, front-wheel drive compact model Buick Kaiyue, suddenly replaced by such a four-wheel drive monster, young people react quickly and better, Zhou Bing is old, what if something happens in the adaptation stage?

In addition to safety considerations, another important reason is that Toyota Tantu is a parallel import car.

"Parallel import car?" Zhou Bing has been listening carefully to Fang Yuan's introduction, nodding from time to time to agree with his opinion, but when he heard the word parallel import car, he couldn't help it, and asked curiously, "What is a parallel import car?"

"Before talking about parallel imported cars, I will first introduce to you the sales channels of our Huaxia passenger cars. Fang Yuan specially explained to Zhou Bing first, second-hand cars are not counted, and now he is talking about new cars.

"The first one is the big trade cart. Fang Yuan stretched out his left index finger and lit up in front of Zhou Bing.

Damao is the official dealer authorized by Volkswagen, Audi, Toyota and other multinational car companies in China, and directly imports genuine cars from overseas through formal channels.

After the customs declaration and tax payment enter Huaxia, it is then put into the regular car brand 4S stores all over the country for sale.

For example, the imported version of Manager Sun's Skoda Octavia station wagon belongs to the big trade car.

"The Audi A4Allroad you sold to Wang Zhi is also a big trade car. Liu Liang added with a smile.

"Yes, as long as it is an official dealer of a foreign car company, the imported car legally sold is called a big trade car. Fang Yuan stretched out the middle finger of his left hand and began to introduce the second type of parallel import car.

Passenger cars are sold by official dealers of foreign automakers and private companies.

These unofficially authorized private traders buy imported cars directly from overseas and sell them at the ports of Tianjin, Shanghai and other places, rather than the regular 4S stores of major brands.

Parallel imported cars pay taxes normally and belong to genuine cars with legal and formal status, but the introduction channels are not official, but only parallel to them, so they are called parallel import cars.

Due to the different channels for private traders to enter the car, there are many versions of parallel imported cars.

For example, the vast majority of Toyota-Prado parallel imported cars sold in Tianjin-Jin Port are "Middle Eastern versions", as well as "Icelandic versions", "Russian versions" and so on.

"I still don't understand what the 'Icelandic version' and 'Middle Eastern version' mean. Zhou Bing was a little embarrassed, he sounded a little confused.

"That's how you understand it. "Fang Yuan simply made an analogy that the Middle East version is a model sold to the Middle East, which was purchased by our private traders in Huaxia and brought back to Huaxia for sale.

"So I understand. Fang Yuan explained this, Zhou Bing's heart brightened, he knew that the "Icelandic version" was sold to Iceland, and then it was purchased by private traders in Huaxia and pulled back to Huaxia for sale.

But Zhou Bing soon had another question: "Is there any difference between parallel import cars and big trade cars?"

"Yes. Fang Yuan said that parallel imported cars and big trade cars are genuine cars that are legally tax-paying, can be licensed normally, and can be legally driven on the road in China, the biggest difference is in after-sales service.

Because Damao Car is imported and sold by the official dealers of major foreign car companies in China, they have regular car brand 4S stores all over the country to provide official warranty.

When buying a big trade car, car owners enjoy the after-sales service of how many years or tens of thousands of kilometers stipulated by major OEMs.

Parallel imported cars belong to the big trade car business, the official dealers of the major OEMs will not provide them with after-sales service, some brand 4S stores do even better, and even the owners are willing to spend money they do not provide maintenance services.

What should I do if a new car does not have a warranty? In fact, the state also has relevant regulations on the after-sales of parallel imported cars, but the implementation is just like that.

Some parallel import car dealers offer warranties, while others do not.

Even if the parallel import car dealer provides a warranty, it is not cost-effective to go because the owner is hundreds or thousands of kilometers away from Tianjin.

In this case, car owners can only think of their own ruts, and can only find reliable auto repair shops for maintenance and repair.

Later, major insurance companies provided a professional insurance called vehicle quality insurance, which is different from compulsory traffic insurance and commercial insurance, and is used to replace 4S stores to provide warranty services for parallel imported car owners.

The second difference is that according to the trade rules for parallel imported cars, the state allows importers to affix the nameplate of the auxiliary factory.

This is because many foreign versions of the model are different from Huaxia's various regulations in terms of fuel, lights, emissions, etc.

In order to meet our Huaxia import standards and pass Huaxia 3C certification, import traders will find some manufacturers to adjust the details of the car.

For example, the installation method of the tail light has been changed, the central control has a Chinese interface, the milemeter has been changed to the kilometer meter, the positions of the airbag have been changed to Chinese, and the shape and position of the exhaust pipe must meet the national standard.

Another difference is the price.

The prices of Mercedes-Benz G, Porsche, Prado, Patrol and so on sold in parallel imports are relatively low, and the more expensive the models sold in China, the greater the distance between the big trade cars and parallel imported cars.

Finally, there's the car model.

Parallel imported cars can buy some unpopular niche models or models, such as the supercar Wuling King "Corvette" under Chevrolet of the Bald Eagle Country, the Toyota Tantu that Zhou Bing saw and so on.

Fang Yuan just said this, Liu Liang suddenly interjected and said, "I heard that the parallel import car water is very deep, and there are many tricks to deceive people. ”

"There are bad people and good people everywhere, and there are parallel import car dealers, of course, there are good people, and there are also people who are willing to do business with integrity. Sun Yanming smiled bitterly and warned everyone to buy parallel import cars, don't think about being cheap, pick up big leaks, be more careful, and generally be fine.
