Hello, i'm a fish living in nanning。
Two days ago, a friend of mine, who just mentioned it, called me with excitement: "a fish lady, i finally dream! Blue sky clouds, 325 li m sports suit, 340,000 land, handsome?"
I'm saying congratulations, but i'm thinking about it: man, you probably don't know how much this blue sky cloud is gonna cost you every year。
As a bmw 320-li owner, i'm using my own car today as an example, and i'm serious about paying everyone a debt: in nanning, how much does it cost to have a fancy brand-name car
Give me my car
My car was a 2023 bmw 320li m sports suit at a price of $320,000. The reason for buying it is simple — every young man has a bmw dream. And at that time, i thought i was in a fancy brand and i had a face。
Three years later, i found out that the face was made out of money and that lee was empty。
Oil: no. 95, fine food
My car was loaded with gas 95. This year, oil prices, although slightly more stable than last year, have largely hovered around $8. 2 per litre。
Every day i travel from the qingtao district to the gao xin district, 15 km one way, and at the height of the morning and night, the national avenue, which is blocked, is called a tragedy. This, together with the fact that on weekends, family members were taken to chiang sushan, vientiane city, and occasionally went to wu xian airport to pick up people, which is about 16,000 kilometres a year。
The bmw 3 is this 2. 0t engine that actually saves fuel on the highway and can run to more than six. However, as soon as it entered the city, especially in the traffic block, the oil ran up. I calculated the average fuel consumption at about 9. 2 l/100 km。
This year's fuel costs are:
16,000 kilometres ÷ 100 x 9. 2 litres x 8. 2 dollars ≈ 12,070 dollars
Every month is fuel, more than 1,000 dollars is to be spent. Every time i go to the gas station and watch the number beat on the gas machine, my heart jumps。
Insurance: the “identity tax” of a luxury brand
This is the one that hurts the most. Bmw insurance is really more expensive than normal brands。
In the first year, insurance was purchased at 4s, tied for sale, at the risk of $9,800. I was thinking about a new car. The following year, he went out to buy it himself, without risking anything, and he made a discount of $7,800. In the third year of this year, the premium is about $6,500。
I've got a friend of toyota camery's who's got the same price as me, but his insurance is only 4,000 out of the year. And i asked him why it was so bad, and he said, "you're a bmw, you're taller, you're expensive to repair cars, and the insurance actuary knows better than you."
Then i found out that the zero ratio of bmw 3 (all parts divided by the whole car price) was over 500 per cent, that is to say, one bmw was torn apart and sold, and five new cars could be bought. The insurance company won't kill you
Maintenance: “soft and gentle” at 4s
The bmw is well-established in a fancy brand, but it's much more expensive than a regular brand。
My car is 10,000 kilometres or once a year. Minor maintenance (e. G. Oil filtering) is done at 4s, approximately $1,200. Large maintenance (oil + air filtration core + air-conditioning core + petrol filtration core + spark plug) is approximately $3,500。
Under the 16,000 km-a-year run, i'm basically a year-on-a-sabbatical and occasionally go to about 20,000 kilometres for a major maintenance. The average cost of maintenance over three years is approximately $2500 to $3,000 per year。
A friend told me to go outside and fix up the car shop. But i've been a little concerned: is the oil out there authentic? Can you do a computer match? If there's a problem with the engine, can't 4s be skinned
This is the "prisoner's dilemma" of the owner of the luxurious brand: go to the 4s store and be afraid outside。
Car wash: nanning's invisible killer
This part has nothing to do with the brand of the car, but it's a real expense。
These four alone will cost $13,600 a year。
Repairs and tyres: possible detonation at any time
This is the most embarrassing place in the luxurious brand. You never know what happens to a car, how much it costs to fix it。
Last year, my car ran 40,000 kilometres, and 4s said it was time to change the brakes at $1,800 inclusive. A friend of mine who runs a repair plant says he buys bosch's brakes, replaces them with a repair shop and puts them down for $800. I chose the latter decisively。
And tires. The bmw 3 plant was equipped with blast-proof tires, one for about $1,500. I got one last year. I got another one for days. If you change all four tires, 6,000 won't。
Final bill: how much did it cost a year
Here, let's add:
Total: $36,470
Average to 3040 a month。
What is this concept? In nanning, the money is enough to rent a nice one-room room, a one-month meal for a family, and enough to drink starbucks every day。
Fish says, "before buying a brand, think of three things."
I'm not telling you not to buy fancy brands. The bmw is really good. The manipulation, the chassis, it's not going back. But if you're like me, you're just a regular worker, and you think three things before you buy a car:
First, can your monthly income cover the fixed expenses of over $3,000
The more than 3,000 is “car fare” and has not yet been counted as monthly. If you get 10,000 a month, scratch a car, rent a meal, do you have enough money to live a decent life
Second, can you accept the pain of repairing the car
The price of the luxury brand parts really hurts you. Three or four thousand rearview glasses, one or two thousand paints, and seven or eight thousand water tanks. These items will not normally be used, but once used, they will be a contingency。
Third, are you sure it wasn't for the honor
I bought a bmw. I was a little vanity. And then i found out that driving a car doesn't determine who you are. If you buy cars just to look at you more, it's really not a good deal。
At the end
My bmw 3 is three years old and still likes it. Every time you get in the driver's seat and hold the steering wheel, the pleasure of driving is really worth the fare。
But i must also admit that i have sacrificed a lot to keep the car. Once a month, it was possible to get off the premises, buy clothes, travel, and now it is necessary to do a good job。
If you ask me, would you still buy bmws if you chose again
My answer is yes. But before i buy it, i'm going to make it clearer and better prepared。
What kind of car do you drive in nanning? How much does it cost to raise a car a year? Welcome to the comment section. Let's talk
I'm a fish. I'm in nanning. I'm living with you. See you next time
