Volume 1 Chapter 96: Behind Closed Doors
Xing Yu has a bit of a plot about the Gower car, and he thinks that this is the most similar to the Volkswagen MK1 domestic model. MK1 is the previous generation of mk2, and the design of two doors is the majority, which is a plot that Xing Yu has always had.
Suddenly seeing such an out-of-print Gower, Xing Yu naturally couldn't show the thoughts he desperately wanted in his heart.
"How did you get it, Brother Qiu, you also started to collect thousands of yuan of cars?" I obviously wanted it in my heart, but I said that I disliked it, Xing Yu has not been in vain in the automobile market over the years.
"It's the same car that was replaced, and I'm sad to death, but I can't buy this car for thousands of dollars, so it costs more than 10,000 yuan. Qiu Pengfei glanced at Gower, his expression was still a little lonely.
Used car trade-in is the business of consumers buying a new car from a brand dealer with the appraised value of the vehicle they are using plus the price of the car they pay separately.
It is also common to be able to exchange not only a new car, but also a better used car.
Although there are many points in replacement, and various routines are also emerging, some vehicles are indeed like chicken ribs to replace, tasteless food, and it is a pity to abandon them.
Just like the Gower in front of me, and the previous Edifier PT, they are all models that car dealers are very reluctant to see in the replacement business.
Gower and Edifier, if you let Qiu Pengfei simply buy, he will not look at it all, the value retention rate of these two cars is low, the sales cycle is long, and the profit is not easy to control, if you meet a Kaizi, maybe you can sell it at a high price, just like the Chrysler Grand Jielong that Qiu Pengfei sold before, that car can also be regarded as a niche car.
If you can't sell it, it's very likely to be smashed directly in your hands if you press it in your hands.
"Then give it to me wholesale, I just bought it back and let my daughter-in-law practice her hands. Xing Yu saw that he was almost done, and he was ready to start.
"Do you want both?" Qiu Pengfei asked, these two cars do not overlap with his customer source at all, and it is estimated that he is also worried that this Gower is also like the Rambler, which has been backlogged in his hands for a long time.
"Rambler, you don't want to sell it, Goyle, don't tell me 10,000 hanging, you said I'll turn around and leave. Xing Yu had to start using negotiation skills, and like Qiu Pengfei, he was retreating.
"The price of two cars is 60,000 yuan!" Qiu Pengfei gritted his teeth and said with a painful expression.
The acting skills of car sales are all Oscar-level, especially Qiu Pengfei, an old car dealer who has been in action for more than ten years, must have the strength to get a little golden man to act.
Hearing this price, Xing Yu laughed, turned around and left, with an expression that you are teasing me? or treat me as a beginner, in terms of acting skills, they are all thousand-year-old foxes, why do you bother to tell me about fasting?
Seeing Xing Yu turn around and leave, Qiu Pengfei stepped forward and grabbed him: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, you can also give a price, didn't you say you were interested just now." ”
Xing Yu stopped and flipped out his mobile phone, checked the quotations of Edifier and Gower, these two cars are rarely found on some car sales websites, and finally found them in some enthusiast forums, pointed to the above prices and said: "Look at these quotations, if you don't leave me a profit, you can't even erase the room for customer counteroffers." ”
To find out the data of the same product, we will give a list of facts. This is also a means that is often used to buy a car.
"Is the information on the Internet reliable? It's a shame that you're still an old man in this industry. Then you name a price, and we'll see if we can negotiate. Don't say I'm grinding, you haven't paid a price until now. Qiu Pengfei pulled Xing Yu and said.
"This price can also be referenced, there is no such high price quoted on the Internet, what price can I set when I go to sell a car? Two cars 50,000 yuan to open a little, I want it, or it will really be counted." Xing Yu also showed an expression of indifference.
"Fifty thousand? You are still open, you are asking for your brother's life, so how much do you say to open?" Qiu Pengfei still had a grief-stricken expression.
Hearing him say this, Xing Yu had a bottom in his heart, it seemed that his psychological price was more than 40,000, and as for how much, he still needed to continue to negotiate.
"Forty thousand hanging a few less, I'm going to pack a lot of things when I take it back, I can't sell it at all now." Xing Yu also said his difficulties, saying that he had paid the highest price for these two cars, and he really couldn't accept it at a high price.
"Forty-eight, do you want it? Qiu Pengfei stopped acting and said categorically.
"Forty thousand, you also have to ensure that there are no violations and that the insurance inspection is normal. Xing Yu said categorically.
"The procedures are all good, I have already dealt with the violations, I won't say anything about your price, forty-five thousand, you also let my brother pay a little less, my brother knows that you have a lot of brains, and there are other ways to sell it back." Qiu Pengfei continued to put on a bitter and hateful expression, as if Xing Yu had cut a piece of his meat.
"That's okay, I won't embarrass you, at this price, I'm not going to sell Gower, just be more expensive. Xing Yu's heart has long been happy, he was originally going to collect this Rambler for 45,000, and now he has given an extra Gower, which is not for nothing to make the money of a car.
Although I am happy, I still have to show a gritted teeth and a sad expression, which is a necessary skill for a qualified car dealer, otherwise it is likely that the cooked duck will fly away.
The two of them played each other's acting skills, they both had a bitter and hateful expression, signed a contract, Xing Yu paid for the car through online banking, took all the formalities, and called someone from his company to drive......
When he arrived at the company's own chassis, Xing Yu let go, drove the car directly in front of Feng Yongpeng and Pei Jiahao, and shouted: "Come to life, let's play big." ”
Xing Yu's plan for the Chrysler Edifier was to cut off the part behind the B-pillar and transform it into a cargo box, giving it the look of a small Ford F-series pickup truck in the fifties and sixties of the last century.
All cars are fitted with their own hand-crafted wide-body body kit, including wide fenders, a wide front bumper and a wider wheel track.
Behind the B pillar of the vehicle is changed to a fiberglass detachable roof to facilitate vehicle review, usually the cargo box cover of a pickup truck, or directly convertible.
The wheels must be changed to retro two-color, and the shock absorber is reserved for pneumatic mounting, which can be replaced according to customer needs.
The color of the whole car has also been changed to candy paint, and a set of flame latte art has been customized.
In this way, the vehicle can retain the complete procedures, and can still be on the road normally, think about the effect, and don't want the feeling of pulling the wind.
As for Gower, the front fender is replaced with the old square-headed Jetta, plus the four-lamp grille, and the rear tailgate is also made of a fiberglass tail wing, eliminating this damn curve, pursuing the old MK1 square feeling, shock absorption just change a set of ordinary twisted teeth, a low cover of a hundred ugly, now do not consider what is genuine or not genuine, the old-fashioned BBS cottage wheels do not cost much......
The most time-consuming is to add Citroen's rear wheel follow-up, when the car is steering, the rear wheel follows the self-deflection of an angle This phenomenon is called rear-wheel follow-up steering.
For automobiles, the suspension system determines the performance of the whole vehicle. The adoption of rear-wheel follow-up steering technology increases the maneuverability of the car, enables the driver to control the vehicle in motion more flexibly and freely, and increases the reliability of safe driving.
This technology sounds lofty, and some luxury cars are now using this technology, such as the Cadillac CT6 is the cheapest, and Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, Acura, BMW and even Ferrari are all offering rear-wheel steering.
The principle of rear-wheel steering is not too complicated, like the front wheel, a steering mechanism can be installed, and because the steering angle is not large, the steering mechanism of the rear wheel can be made more compact than the front wheel. A tie rod is connected to the rear hub to control the steering of the rear wheels through the tie rod.
The steering of the rear wheels is not controlled by the steering wheel, but by a computer. Sensors on the steering column detect what you're going to do, combining your speed and handling, and the computer determines whether the rear wheels are steering the same or opposite as the front wheels.
As for Citroen's set, it is really simple in structure and low in cost. The principle of the use of rear wheel follow-up steering is a very simple physical structure, just add some rubber cushion at the junction of the rear suspension and the body, when the vehicle turns to a certain side to squeeze, the rubber cushion will be extruded and deformed and cause the rear wheel to produce a certain angle of change, so as to realize the rear wheel steering.
There is no computer control at all, and the front and rear wheel levers are connected, and the craftsmanship of this equipment is not even as good as the two-axle four-wheel steering used by some heavy trucks.
If you look at where Citroen used this technology in the past? The most expensive model that the national energy can buy is the Senna, and you can think that this is not an expensive configuration.
Xing Yuxing rushed to Pei Jiahao and Feng Yongpeng to talk about his modification ideas, with an expression of impatience to do it.
"Brother Xing, this gladiator's split fiberglass cover, I'm working on it, you have added tasks to us again, and the concubine can't do it." You're trying to exhaust me. Pei Jiahao has been working overtime day and night recently, and he couldn't help complaining.
"Yes, Xing Yu, your modifications have not improved the performance at all, and you, the gladiator, are reluctant to change the spring suspension to improve the comfort, when did you become a person who only pursues appearance. Feng Yongpeng has not been idle recently, and when he heard such a modification appeal, he couldn't help but vomit bitterness.
"Do you think I'm willing, isn't this cheap? If you change the performance, how much will it cost? Brush a computer program, we have to call a technician from the capital, change the turbo, forge the piston or something, the cost is more expensive than the car, you get busy first, and when the finished product is produced, I will give you a bonus, this is the market demand, let's comply with it." Xing Yu didn't fully say what he thought, he believed that the facts would prove everything by then.
Xing Yu said so, Feng Yongpeng and Pei Jiahao had no choice but to agree, the APP is now sold, Xing Yu has a lot of free time to contact resources in addition to collecting and watching the car, and he has been spending time in the maintenance workshop when he has nothing to do.
For this reason, Wei Xiao also quarreled with Xing Yu once, because Xing Yu wore her newly bought brand-name clothes to repair the car and got dirty.
Xing Yu also expressed deep helplessness for this: "You bought all my clothes, you prepared them when I went out, and I didn't mean to get dirty, otherwise you would buy me a set of camouflage uniforms?"
"I just like my husband to dress cleanly, neatly and neatly, and bring out the door to save face, I dress you up, or is it my fault?" Wei Xiao also felt very aggrieved......
