How to choose a used car VAZ. Old (used) foreign car or new (domestic) VAZ. What is better and what to choose? Subtlety questions. We choose the products of the domestic manufacturer

Each future auto owner faces the problem of buying a car. Of course, if financial capabilities allow, it is better to acquire a car from the cabin that minimizes all possible unpleasant consequences of the purchase, since the car is new and the warranty is given. But buy new car Not all and here the secondary market comes to the revenue of motorists.

The car market is very extensive and allows you to almost anyone to find a car under the available budget. But the acquisition of such a car is associated with very many risks, and first of all it concerns the car themselves. The condition of the car depends on the conditions of operation and adherence maintenance. But not all car owners normally relate to their "steel horse", some at all act with accuracy to the opposite - squeeze out of the car "All Juices", and very quickly, and after just "spoke" it. And here the problem is even more not that the car has some technical problems, And all attempts by the seller hide them to sell a car for more expensive. And for this they go to a variety of tricks. Therefore, the purchase of used cars is quite risky and is not always possible to predict that the machine "got into hand". But you can try to reduce these risks as much as possible, which will also allow and save on acquisition, but for this you need to know what to ask the seller where to look, and what moments can cause suspicions.

Consider how to prepare before and during the purchase of a car on the example of VAZ models - one of the best-selling machines on secondary market.

We define a potential purchase

The first action before purchasing is the search for offers for the sale of cars. Here options are enough, so you first need to narrow the search for the search and for this you need to decide on a number of criteria:

• Available budget;
• Preferred option (sedan or station wagon, front or rear-wheel drive, 3 or 5-door, etc.);
• Auto repair experience and opportunity after purchasing maintenance (for some buyers, buying a faulty car and its recovery can be a more profitable option)

These criteria will significantly reduce the time to search for the required car.

Next, you can already consider the available offers. One of the optimal acquisition options is the purchase of VAZ among familiar, friends, relatives, in general, a car that is good to the buyer. Knowing the features of the car, and the attitude of the owner to the car, you can already approximately establish the state of the car and already on the basis of this bargaining. In addition, in this case, the payment option is available in installments (if there is a trust relationship between the buyer and the seller), which will allow you to purchase a car, the cost of which is higher than the available budget.

If there are no such acquaintances, here you will have to look for options on the trading platforms:

• Internet resources;
• Ads in newspapers;
• Carpetics;

Selecting the car on such vessels, should not be stopped at a single option, it is worth choosing 3-5 machines that make the most appropriate selection criteria and choose the best offer.

We get primary information

Having stopped at several versions, carefully study the information provided by the machine. At the same time, the description of the car should not be considered, since the indicated data is not always true, here it is more to stronger the attached photos (than them are more, the better).

You should also compare the prices for cars. "Keep" for the cost, which is very lower than the market, should not, since it is almost always a problem in such proposals (they "hang" fines or it is laid in a bank, technically "killed", something is wrong with documents, etc. d.). As a result, such a purchase will turn very serious and unpleasant consequences. Therefore, prices should be stopped at the options with the average value (with a slight deflection in a positive or negative direction).

After determining with cars, you can call sellers. At this stage, you should ask:

• The technical condition of the car (but also does not particularly trust, although if the seller is honest and just decided, he can already talk about the problems and nuances of the car);
• Operating conditions;
• Who "recorded" the car (the best option, if the seller or his close relatives are the owner on those. Passport, and he agrees to remove the car from accounting. Options when the seller has only power of attorney to skip the car, because in the future with renewal problems may appear);
• How many owners were from cars (1-2 owners - the most optimal option, 3 - allowed, more - you can stop talking and search for cars to purchase further);
• The owner's speech period (the better - the better. If he owns a car for only a couple of months, it is better to give up such a car and believe the stories that "did not fit" or "urgently need money" is not worth it);
• The relevance of bargaining (ordinary sellers often agree to bargaining in the "limits of reasonable");
• The ability to check the car to a hundred (check for a hundred - one s better options Determine the technical condition of the machine, especially for those who are with a car on "you", and if the seller refuses such an inspection, then something "unclean" with the car. But in this case they will have to coordinate the issue of payment service service);

Specifying all the details, you can coordinate the meeting to inspect the car "live". At the same time, going to the "Wastes" will not be superfluous will be the presence of a familiar well-disimed in cars. Since if you insure the car, it is better to know in advance all "pitfalls"

Inspection of a car

The inspection of the car is perhaps the most important part when choosing, because it makes it possible to estimate the state of the machine, identify defects and problems that in the future will reduce the price or lead to the conclusion that the purchase should be refused.

Documentation, mileage

At the meeting, first of all we consider the TCP auto and otherwise. The documentation (the more it will be provided by the seller, the better). We also immediately check for those. Passport body number.

The next criterion is mileage, but there are a lot of nuances here, so for the most part will have to be content with the testimony of odometer. But here you can also hold some calculations from the information provided by the owner. For example, a car is 10 years old, and the owner indicates that he used the car for personal purposes only. With such operation, the average annual mileage varies in the range of 10-20 thousand km, and as a result we obtain that on the odometer should be about 100-200 thousand km. If below - mileage is most likely twisted (on the stories that "only grandfather went for bread" - I do not pay attention to), and large mileage It will indicate that the car was operated very actively (for example, as a taxi or work car). But such calculations give only an approximate result and all the nuances cannot be taken into account, so we will have to hope for the seller's honesty, as well as that "tells" the technical condition of the car.

After reconciling the documents, the general inspection of the car and the comparison of its state with the odometer readings, proceed to more detailed diagnostics of the state.

Force aggregate

The first should be inspected by the engine, its hinged equipment and aggregates. Pure motor without traces of inclination, but nicely pathetic dust is the best indicator that power point In fully working condition and in it before the sale did not do anything. Even if it is seen somewhere a small subcle technical fluid - There is no reason to give up the purchase, but at the same time it will help a little "reset" the price.

But a thoroughly washed motor - a reason to alert, because the sink usually is trying to hide traces of faults or recent repairs (which is unknown as completed). New attachments and wiring may indicate that the car has recently been subjected to serious repair (the reason for which is also silent by the owner or it provides inaccurate information).

In addition to the engine, we also examine all the surfaces of the subcontrol space (hood, motor shield, arches). Often there are traces of strong leaks of those. liquids (if any).

Body and suspension

Further inspect the body. In order not to miss the nuances, it is better if the inspection is performed with bright sunlight. With such lighting, even minor incluses of the column of paint will be noticeable, which will indicate to the tinted or repair of the body.

On the statements that the car "not a bit, not painted" at all should not be paid attention, because according to statistics about 90% of all cars during operation, the body was damaged, but only the owner knows how serious they were (but whether he will tell the truth - unknown ).

Be sure to check the label on the glasses (it should be the same everywhere), any incomprehension will indicate that some glass was replaced.

Also we inspect all body cleaners (on the doors, hood, trunk). Strong discrepancies in the size of the gaps are one of the signs that the body is "behavior", and this is fraught with many problems in the future.

Yet again good assistant In determining the state of the car, dust is a thin layer of it on all surfaces will indicate that the seller car did not prepare a specially car for sale and provided it with such a "what". Naturally, he can wash the car so that it looks better, but grated bumpers, nameplates, labels and other hinged body equipment, as well as stickers will indicate that beautiful external species The owner is trying to "clutch" eyes (in the people, this reception of the dealers is called "smearing the lips" by the car).

It does not prevent the bottom, but for this you will need looking Yama. The fresh layer of the anti-corrosion treatment of the bottom is a sign that the seller of mastic is trying to hide obvious defects (in the case of the body - these are foci of rust).

Being under the car immediately estimate the state of the suspension elements. On the shock absorbers should not be sublifts, silent blocks, bushings and anthers - whole and not bundled, etc.

Also inspect the status of the tires. The uneven wear will indicate at least the unintended corners of the collapse / convergence, and the maximum on the "behavior" body.

Salon

Go to the cabin. It define the degree of "worstness" of surfaces, especially those elements that are closed with covers (steering wheel, seat), as well as door handles, rugs. If all in the cabin is new (the same covers) - perhaps the seller is trying to hide traces of intensive operation of the car.

We also check the performance of all equipment both internal and external - signal lamps dashboard, heater, air conditioning (if any), janitor and washer, turn signals, headlight, rear block headlights, etc.

Checking "on the go"

The final stage of the independent inspection is a small trip by car. At the same time, it is not necessary to include music, ask not to interfere with the "listen" to the car, and choose such a way for movement where most different road conditions - Direct and smooth plot (evaluate the operation of the motor - its pickup, dynamics), with irregularities and ughabs ("will show" the work of the suspension and will show the corpses of the body), with turns (for evaluation brake system and steering).

After all this, either proceed to the trading, or additionally check the car for a hundred. In the second case, it should be suggested to check the car on any first service station, but the station should be selected by the buyer, and not to go to the fact that the seller recommends (will eliminate the likelihood that the seller's station will be "their people").

Bargain

After all checks - bargaining. Here you should specify all the identified defects and breakdowns, and on the basis of them to coordinate the discount question. But here it is better to operate with specific figures to constructively prove the need to reduce the price. And for this, it should be asked to ask the cost of spare parts and repair the most common faults and defects. Below is a list of those components that most often require recovery, as well as approximately on operation:

• Body work (bottom repair will cost $ 200-300, repainting - from $ 1000, eliminating rust foci - 100-300 $);
• Power unit (replacement of consumables - 50-150 $, overhaul - up to $ 1000);
• Brake system or steering (200-400$);
• Suspension (from 50 to $ 400);
• Optics (headlights - 50-100 $, windshield - $ 100-250);
• Exhaust gas release system (Cook - $ 30-40, replace - 100-150 $);

These amounts are very extensible and much depends on the car itself, the complexity of damage and defects, as well as from the one who will carry out the repair (when independent repairs It is possible to save greatly, but it is better to teach about it, saying to the buyer that you have to spend money on the service station).

By aligning the issue of the price we carry out the purchase and renewal of documents. But on this, the acquisition of cars has not yet been completed.

Primary T.

Becoming the winner of the VAZ, it will not be superfluous to fulfill that to be completely confident in the car (this operation is necessary even on those cars whose state is "sat down and drove").

At the first, then your car should:

• • Replace all those. liquids (unknown when and what poured the previous owner);
  • Change engine consumables (drive belts);
  • Estimate the state of the brake pad;
  • Replace suspension consumables;
  • Check and adjust the angles of collapse / convergence;

This is the necessary minimum before starting the normal operation of the car. And already in the process of use, gradually eliminate the remaining defects and breakdowns.

Signs of attempts by deception

The main signs that the buyer is trying to "wear firewood" are:

• Low price;
• Abundant "lip sticking" machine;
• Obstacle by any ways to normal and comprehensive car inspection;
• Failure to diagnose on a hundred;
• Attempts to reduce the scale of the problem (something like "Yes, I turned off for such a reason, but if you connect it back, it will work");
• Easy fascination in price;

If all this is noticed when inspected, it is better to look for a car to purchase from other sellers.

As a result, we note that all these measures do not guarantee a successful purchase, because in this matter a lot depends on which the seller will fall, but they although they reduce the likelihood of acquiring a problem car.

In order not to spend time and strength, you need to deterrely as accurately as possible with the fact that, in fact, you need to purchase and how much money is available on the purchase.

Spraying the set of "similar" options offered. If a sedan is needed, then you choose only the sedan. If necessary mechanical box, In search terms, put "only MCP". Ideally, of course, by the time of the request, it is necessary to clearly represent the car which brand and model is supposed to be purchased. Need Renault Logan, it means that we look at Reno Logan, and not Clio Symbol, Sandero and Polo Sedan. Before a heap. Keep in mind that even the most "wonderful" used car will require some costs after buying some costs.

No matter how cool, and in the first month you will have to fork out at least for any little thing like new janitor, anthers, bushings, buckets, new tires, polishing, dry cleaning, and perhaps something more serious. Therefore, it is better than 10-15% of the amount planned to postpone the car and not spend everything to the last penny. Just in case, as practice shows, with used cars occurs regularly.

2. Throw the cheapest and most expensive options.

The cost of the car is the most abstract value in the ad, as a person always want to buy cheaper, and sell more expensive. The price tag in most cases reflects not the real cost of the car, but the desire of the seller. Therefore, it is worth identifying middle Cost Of the proposed options and focus on announcements, the range of which is different from it within 20%. All the cheap offers of the car with the same characteristics cause strong suspicions. And dear in most cases demonstrate the unjustification of the requirements.

3. Compare the year and mileage

Mileage of the car - another very "slippery" parameter, orient to which is hard. The "twisting" of the speedometer is engaged in general, almost everyone who relates to the sale of cars, ranging from "private traders" and ending with official dealers.

And yet it is possible to make some conclusions before you go to watch the car. First of all, it is worth remembering that runs directly depend on the size of the city, through which the car traveled. So, in St. Petersburg and Moscow with their avenues, "ring" and trips to the cottage for 100-200 km from the city middle Mileage It can range from 20,000 to 40,000 km per year, or even more.

So if the car, for example, five years, then kilometer, most likely, has already exceeded a hundred thousand. Accordingly, seeing the announcement of the car 2008-2009 release with mileage of 35,000 - 40,000 km, it is worth thinking about the authenticity of this data.

4. Analyze the category of car popularity

Exceptions, of course, are always and everywhere. Therefore, in addition to a kilometer, it is worth paying attention to a specific brand and model, as well as its popularity among a particular group of drivers.

In particular, cars are popular with the beautiful half of humanity can really have a very small mileage. But the "Ladies" cars have another trouble, namely the mass of small body damage. Even very new cars are beaten, scratched, rubbed from all sides and, as a result, several times repainted.

Another example: Renault Logan, Chevrolet Lacetti, Hyundai Accent, Peugeot partner, Volkswagen Caddy, extremely popular among domestic taxi drivers, have a mileage, which over the year crosses the bombard. So, choosing one of the above models, the chance to run out exactly on such a "leaving" car rises sharply. By the way, in the same category, the majority of passenger Mercedes contacted with monstrous runs, "twisted" somewhere on the border, fall into the same category.

Do not neglect the ratings of hijaciousness, in which others often fall japanese cars. And in such machines as BMW X5, you can easily detect not only the problems with the documents, but also the holes of the 7.62 caliber hole in the body ...

Which cars have become the most popular last year, learn from our review.

5. Carefully consider photos

The person chooses first of all through her eyes, so almost two thirds of information on the car can be obtained from the proposed photos. To their presence should be treated extremely carefully, and most importantly - to be able to consider them, what you need.

Ads without photos can be sorted immediately. To spend time even on calls on an abstract car, it is not worth it: what is this seller who did not worry about the presentation of his own car? For the same reason, "in the trash" we advise you to send ads with unaware and turbid pictures and photos taken at night, as well as images, where the machine is represented only by parts.

Photos should be provided in sufficient quantities and high quality so that they can see the roots of rust, body damage, the size of the gaps, the condition of the paintwork and even traces of body repair.

For example, if the tint of the color of the door (the hood, wing, bumper) differs sharply from the main color of the car, it means that this element was repainted. And if so, it is likely to be restored after an accident.

On the snapshots of the salon, it is possible to determine how carefully and carefully treated the master, as well as signs of participation in the accident. For example, if the pad on the hub of the steering wheel (under which the airbag is located) sparkles novelty or differs in the color of the rim of the steering wheel, most likely, the pillow has already changed it is clear for what reason.

If you have recently received right, it is best to gain experience on a car that will not mind, even if he breaks. Very often novice drivers acquire used domestic cars, Some then do not even want to change them - get used to, produce tuning, that is, improve their "iron horses". However, even the supported car needs to choose correctly, otherwise it will not serve you and years.

Device VAZ 2110.

The VAZ 2110 model first was on sale in 1995, and in the people she got the most different nicknames. So, it was called "Pregnant Antelope" and simply "lapes". However, this car Until now, successfully sold on the secondary market of cars.

The VAZ 2110 device, in general, is practically no different from the design of other models of VAZ, in addition, not one book was written about this model at one time. Due to this, almost any car enthusiast is able to make some changes to its "iron horse" on their own. It is also worth noting that in all cities it is fairly easy to find the necessary spare parts for this model, which adds it another plus.

Deciding to acquire this particular model, it is important to remember that the device of the VAZ 2110 is such that there is no sufficient view from the salon when moving back. Actually, most cars of this model have any scratches, and, as a rule, the reason for obtaining scratches is exactly a bad review. This will have to get used to and adapt.

It is also important to keep in mind that the car requires solid and clear orders for the pedals, however, the first time of the legs are usually not tired of such loads. Another weak point in the VAZ 2110 device is the course of the clutch pedal.

Of course, if you compare with foreign cars, then, the VAZ 2110 greatly loses, however, in general, for the first car this model It is very good, especially since it can not be sorry and use, including as a means of moving heavy cargo, for example, furniture or building materials.

The brains of the Togliatti Automobile Plant are still the most popular vehicles in the secondary market of Russia. They are chosen by a number of reasons, among which: available cost, inexpensive repair, good fitness To domestic off-road and unpretentious in operation. However, the choice of cars with mileage is always associated with a certain risk to purchase problem Machine both in legal and technical plan. A carcode tells how to choose a car VAZ, and what to pay attention to when buying.

How to choose a used car VAZ

First, let's talk about what it is worth paying attention to first.

Iron

It is no secret that the most expensive repair requires the body of the car. Therefore, first of all, we look at the state of iron. Read more How to check the paintwork and geometry of the used car body. If you found signs that the car was repainted, or her body geometry is impaired - most likely, the TC visited a serious accident. From the choice of such a car it is better to refuse. It is also not worth buying a vehicle with corrosion traces. Cars of the VAZ family rust fast enough. And to slow down the "bloom" of body elements may require a lot of strength and cash.

Internal stuff

• transmissions (extraneous noise when switching transmissions, as well as difficulties with their switching indicate problems with the CAT, the replacement of which (especially if this automatic) will cost several tens of thousand rubles);
• suspension elements (swaying cars when driving - the first sign of the presence of problems);
• the engine (dark or gray exhaust with a working power unit indicates that the latter requires a overhaul, which will also be in a penny);
• electrical equipment (problems with the electrician are found at the used vases quite often, so if you find an involuntary triggering of janitors or sound signal - Be prepared to replace the mounting unit).

As they say, there are always two "fools" on the market - one sells, another buys. The owner of 99 cases out of 100 is not going to inform you about all the faults of your used car. If you are not sure that you can independently identify the shortcomings of the technical condition of the vehicle, it is reasonable to take a knowledgeable person with you. It will help to do right choice And if necessary, reports on those faults that you just not notice. If finance is allowed - one of the most rational options is to check the used car in a specialized service center. True, for high-quality diagnostics will have to pay several thousand rubles.

You can order an on-site check on the Avtocode website.

What VAZ models are preferable

When choosing a used car, one of the main parameters is considered its value. For used cars VAZ with price tag 40-50 thousand rubles. It is better not to pay attention at all. For such money in most cases, sellers offer a chear of scrap metal, which will require considerable financial injections and frequent repairs. Next, consider more expensive options.

Budget 60-70 thousand rubles.

In this price category, optimally choose representatives of the classics - VAZ 2105, VAZ 2106 or VAZ 2107. It is advisable to buy a car not older than 2003-2004 release. These are reliable and time-tested cars, which, with appropriate care and compliance, the rules of operation will still serve not yet one year.

Budget 80-90 thousand rubles.

Here the undoubted leader is considered VAZ 21099, released 10-12 years ago. It is better to choose a vehicle with an injector. Machines with carburetor special buy not recommended. If you decide to stop the choice on this model - special attention Take the brake system check. Make sure that oil and other liquids do not suit, and there is no rust on the arches and thresholds. Moreover, weak place VAZ 21099 is considered a salon heater, so make sure it is working. Another problem, inherent in these models, is a strong rattling of parts interior decoration Salon, which, however, is observed almost all the old models "Zhiguli".

Budget 120-160 thousand rubles.

• good price and quality ratio;
• technological equipment level, not inferior to many manufacturers;
• big clearance, which provides high permeability;
• roomy salon;
• decent anti-corrosion properties of the body.

If you decide to choose a used VAZ 2112, first of all, check the engine. Foreign Summas From under the hood will indicate problems with hydrocomathers. In addition, ask the seller, what kind of fuel was used to refuel vehicle: The gasoline of the 92nd brand does not most effect on the stability of the 16-valve power unit.

VAZ 2114 is not much different in design from the 9th series models, therefore it has the same problems as VAZ 21099 (they mentioned above).

Budget from 200 thousand rubles.

If you decide to choose a used car more expensive - pay attention to the prior or grant. These models are characterized by high safety indicators, increased comfortable cabin, good noise insulation properties. From the shortcomings, the experts are pointing towards the quality of fuel (refueling the car desirable than the 95th brand of gasoline), oil and other consumables.

Residents of countryside, as well as citizens who are interested in active holiday, travel, hunting or fishing, experts recommend choosing Largus Largus or Niva. Models are distinguished high passability, roomy interior and unpretentious to use.

Whatever the model of the VAZ you have not chosen before you make a purchase, check the used machine with the help of the All-Russian Internet service "Avtokod". Enter the state in the search field on our website. Room or VIN-code of the car. A few minutes later you will be able to familiarize yourself with detailed history vehicle. The report will contain information on the number of owners of the machine, the existence of burdens and restrictions on registration actions in the traffic police, information about fines, accidents and other useful data, on the basis of which you will make conclusions about the reasonableness of the car purchase.

I decided to speak out about this, because many of my readers and the audience ask me about it. The question is really not unambiguous and when he gets up in front of a person who changes used, as a rule old car (which is "Ushatan" and sold) and now there is a huge selection - what to take a used (but foreign car) or a new one (but our domestic is usually) VAZ? You need to approach from several points of view, we all consider them today, there will be a video and voting at the bottom, so we read ...

Start with the fact that recently the situation with Russian car industry Slowly, but correctly changes, and as I think for the better. It started with Bu Andersen when he began to raise the quality of the brand. And no one even thought to refuse old models, I'm talking about "prior", "Kalina", "grant", "Lada 4x4", they simply decided to "pull up" a little that, as I think "almost done." But also next to these models, new "Vesta", "X-Ray", "Largus", Lada Urban was developed.

However, in the Russian minds there is a durable stereotype that everything that produces a VAZ is bad, and even a little-old foreign car will not be just better, but much better! But if it is in modern realities, because in Lada we will take exactly a new one, but a foreigner used.

About the price bar and age

"Foreign guests" are now whole WHO, ranging from Datsun (as I consider the "doped" grant), ending with top BMW, Mercedes, Audi. Therefore, we will classify them for two big subspecies, it is inexpensive in maximum sets up to 1 million rubles and expensive - over this amount (this is me now about new cars)

Moreover, we will choose a used version, which means exceeding it 500,000 should not, this is really the price of modern, well-equipped AvtoVAZ.

I also want to talk about age limit, yet 5 years this is the maximum figure as I believe, if younger than it is better, because I will say, for many Koreans there is a guarantee of 5 years and 150,000 mileage

Inexpensive used foreign car

This is the most practical deal if you have 400 - 500,000 rubles, then you can take almost new - Logan, Sandero, Solaris, Rio, Almera, Polo. Either a little older focus (second generation), Mazda3, Cruise, Astra, Lancer, Corolla, etc. (There are really a lot of them).

That is, these cars are not "alpha" brands (such as BMW, Audi, Mersedes). This is the class "B-C", they will not have complex turbines, diesel engines, robotic boxes Gears and other nonsense. This is usually ordinary "atmospheric" with volumes of 1.2 - 1.6 (rarely 1.8 - 2.0) ,.

As I think - if you take a used foreign car, then it is from this group. It is here that if it is not a "killed barn" (with a mileage of 250,000 km), it will be possible to ride long and happily

And such cars, how to say Logan, Sandero, Duster, first generations at all go some "raven" runs, without any serious investments (only "consumables"). Koreans - such as Solaris and Rio, are also very reliable and give any comfort and possess the largest guarantee of all in our country.

If you take a car bigger, Lancer, Corolla, Astra, Cruz, Mazda3 - Take first-hand, and be sure to watch test power units, transmissions, twisted runs, "beating", etc. If you are wiping the "killed" car, you will invest your blood in it with a lot and expensive.

Remember - repairing foreign cars Especially class "C" (and above) is two, and maybe three times more expensive than our domestic cars

Of course, on a relatively no high price, 400 - 500,000 rubles, you can find a good copy, with a small mileage, winter rubber and other. Moreover, the quality of the cabin, design, the execution of technical nodes will be really at the height. But there are few such cars! And when buying it is worth taking a knowledgeable person with you.

You also need to be morally ready to invest in repair. Yet the option is a roulette.

Expensive used foreign car

My opinion here is unequivocal - take this, I do not advise you. For 400 - 500,000 rubles, it will already be a shaggy year (about 6 - 8 years old). This is exactly the alpha brands about which I wrote above - Audi, Mercedes, BMW, if you take the Japanese Camry, chords and so on.

Of course, there is a brand, and comfort, and prestige (let the old car, but still). And again it is not Lada.

However, this option is almost 100% hit on the loot (with the Japanese less often). Of course, you may be lucky and you will take some Merce to which 8 years with a mileage of 3,000,000 km. But such an accident is striving for zero.

How is it in practice. A young boy, who a couple of years ago she passed on the rights and less learned to ride (and such cars they are buying exactly) BUYs themselves to say Mers W203 for 400,000 rubles (let's say 2006). Mileage as he was told 150,000 kilometers (Yeah, in 11 years old!) And all he is all such an elegant rzet over the neighbors who bought the "Vesta", "X-ray" and other miracle of our technology.

That's just his joy will not be long, because this car is already 11 and in the forehead case something happens to her. And repair, not even original spare parts, often goes into mad money, the turbine only will cost from 100,000 rubles, if you take the originals. And here, the whole comfort and beauty + prestige will fall below the plinth, and there will be such a miracle a guy all the steep, ride on the minibus (pay a loan for this barn and save money for repair).

And the neighbors who bought cars new, but the class below will ride and rejoice.

Pros from shopping :

• Prestige
• Design
• Quality
• Reliability
• Comfort
• Equipment

Minuses :

• Expensive repair (especially if these are prestigious brands)
• Turbines, robots and other charms, trite may not be specialists in your city
• Large taxes
• "Eating" a lot of fuel
• Often breaks
• Many years

In these items, I collected inexpensive and expensive options. Actually it is

New but domestic vase

I repeat once again - I do not protect anyone! The most of the most domestic cars of this brand itself, "breaded with them a lot" - but it was before.

Let's think about how the situation with AvtoVAZ is nowing (I do not pretend to super analytics, it's only my opinion)

Now the control package of shares belongs to the Renault-Nissan corporation, the government stopped waging billions (at 70 - 80) every year, do not understand what! Of course there is support, but it is somewhat less.

The new administration dispersed a bunch of "Paintings" and "Darmotov", not all (many others also), but still. Dali understand - want to work to make high-quality "components" and we will work with you. There was a minus that there was a lot of spare parts abroad, but now the situation is changing in the opposite direction (the blessing of the sanctions help).

The prices yes have grown, but the cars have become better. Otherwise, if they are "crap-crap", no one will buy buy. Pulled up and modernly equipped brands, viburnum, priors, grants. Now they have air conditioning (climate controls), heated (and windshield), navigation (with large monitors), and so on. Of course, the interior decoration remained from budgetary materials, but they now do not rattle, do not rattle.

If you take X-paradise, Largus is generally really very reliable cars. They are based on the platform "B0" on which the same Sandero, Logan, Duster are built, terrano. This is a very durable and simple platform. I wanted for a long time and without any obvious jambs.

Vesta is our development brought to mind. Really, it can compete with such machines as a Solaris, Rio, Polo, Almera, Aveo, etc. In its class, she is not very bad.

Again, their developments appear, this is a robot, a 1.8 liter motor. If there is no critical problem with the engine, then about the robot ... (there will be a separate article).

Well, again new car, Nobody traveled on it! Warranty 3 years (either 100,000 km), now it really works. Yes, and people have become different now, know more of their rights, just like the court immediately! In general, the "picture" is changing, take the VAZ now - you can! Especially if this is a new generation of machines.

Again, all our "folk tuners" in 80% are tuning our car, ranging from the "classics" ending with priors. It seems to me that only our cars can be so expensive.

Well, spare parts, they are everywhere and everywhere. You can find anything, and the prices are democratic. I remember saw the guy's face when he found out how much the repair DSG is worth, he said that for this money you can buy and do not bathe!

Positive moments of new AvtoVAZ :

• Cheap repair
• Now they are becoming more reliable
• No one went to you, did not kill
• GUARANTEE
• Acceptable price
• Configuration, is everything in modern cars
• Support from the state, preferential loans and programs
• Not difficult repair
• Just for inexpensive tuning

Negative moments :

• it budget cars (even there is no class "C")
• The quality of trim and plastic salon (although in X-paradise and Vesta is already more or less)
• Not prestigious (still lives this stereotype in us)
• Break. It also happens (especially the first generation machines)
• Stand at the level of foreign cars. Yes now the price tag is growing

In general, this is a very practical purchase. If you need a car to ride (at work, in a taxi, in cottages, with children - Largus is a seven) then this is your choice. These are not cars for Ponte, they are "workers".
