Как мы искали VW TOUAREG, а купили BMW X5

In this episode: a real-life story of a car search where everything went horribly wrong. A customer from St. Petersburg wanted a black Volkswagen Touareg, but instead bought a BMW X5 F15 from a dealership with a dubious reputation. We scoured the Moscow and St. Petersburg car markets: everywhere were rolled-back odometers, damaged side members, cars in serious accidents, and ghost sellers. But unexpectedly, the client agreed to a model upgrade, and we found "gold" in a dirty interior. What you'll learn from the video: — Why we abandoned the Touareg and switched to the X5. — How to read AutoTeka reports and not be afraid of "horrific" accidents in them. — A real-life inspection of a 2017 BMW X5: the body is in its original paint, but the interior is terrible. — Why didn't the car dealership do a dry cleaning for 10,000 rubles when selling the car for 4.2 million? — How we haggled and why we couldn't lower the price (but we did get insurance and a lift included). — How much does this X5 actually cost on the market and why the client saved almost 1,000,000 rubles. Result: We bought a technically near-perfect car with 95,000 km on the clock for 4,245,000 rubles, even though the market price starts at 5 million. All that was left was to do a dry cleaning and remove minor blemishes. Let's see how we found a bargain. Subscribe to stay up to date with new auto market investigations!
