What car should I buy with a budget of 300 thousand? It's a topic I've often heard recently. 300,000 yuan is used to buy a new car, and all familiar names often come to mind. But when it comes to used cars, there are many choices. Today, I will bring you this 2009 BMW 730Li leading model, a quasi-luxury D-class car that can be bought for less than 300,000 yuan.
Compared with Mercedes-Benz and Audi in the same year, BMW 7 Series is the most cost-effective. Not only is it cheaper now, but also the pure front and rear drive layout, as well as the classic in-line six-cylinder engine, coupled with the more radical and advanced design in the past, it will not feel particularly old today. And if you drive by yourself, you won't be too much like a driver. If you care about this, you can consider buying a white one.
Although this BMW 7 Series is 10 years old, many configurations and designs of this car are still very outdated today. For example, this entry-level 7 series still has an air intake grille that is actively opened and closed. At present, there are still many models that take this design as their main selling point.
The rear of this 730Li is probably the most embarrassing place. Friends who are familiar with Series 7 must know that the most obvious appearance difference between 730Li and 740Li lies in the layout of the exhaust pipe. This difference is not as simple as spending more than ten dollars to change the trailer. Of course, many car owners have replaced 730Li with 760Li. After all, the appearance of this generation of 7 Series has not changed much from 2009 to the end of 20 15, so it doesn't look old, which is one reason why this generation of 7 Series is cost-effective.
Although it is the lowest BMW 7 series, it still adopts the design of angel eye, which is a xenon headlight with lens. This design evolved into today's "spoon" lamp. As for which one looks better, it depends on your personal preference.
The 2009 BMW 7 Series comes standard with an electric suction door, which can be said to be a must for luxury executive cars. Although I know that this function is easily broken and hardly used, it is definitely a reduction without this function.
Many people criticized BMW's interior design before, and used various labels such as "mediocre", "monotonous" and "engineering male" to describe it. However, I have to admit that the interior design and layout are very useful. Every button is where it should be, and every function can make you use it very easily. In other words, it is understandable that people who spent more than 654.38 million yuan to buy him complained about the poor interior decoration. However, in the case of a 20% discount, no matter how many complaints can be solved at this price.
However, for friends who really want to buy this generation of second-hand BMW 7 Series, I actually recommend you to buy the 740Li model. On the one hand, the power is much stronger than that of 730Li, on the other hand, the configuration of 740Li is higher. It's 2020, even if we buy a second-hand luxury car without front seat ventilation, panoramic image and rear seat adjustment, it's hard for us to accept it. However, all the above functions are available in 740Li.
During the test drive, I made a very forward-looking design, that is, the instrument of BMW 7 Series adopted this invisible font design. When the vehicle is turned off, the whole instrument panel will become a blackboard, just like the full LCD instrument now. Pressing the ignition button, the feeling that the numbers on the dashboard slowly emerge will still make people sincerely sigh, and it is not free!
Since the 7th Series in 2009, BMW has laid this set of interior layout. Even today, the latest X7 and 8 series interiors are still improved on the basis of this 2009 7 series. It can be seen that this set of interior design reflects the design direction of BMW Future 15.
But in this generation of 7 series, the workmanship of the interior is not good. As long as you get along with him for a long time, you will find that there are relatively many abnormal noises inside. Especially in luxury executive cars, the sound insulation is much better than ordinary cars, and a little abnormal noise in the interior will be detected immediately. However, this minimum 730Li is still equipped with front seat memory and front and rear seat heating functions, which makes me feel very satisfied.
Matching with the seat memory function is the electrically adjustable steering wheel, through which comfortable entry and complete seat memory function can be realized. Therefore, I also insist that the function of electrically adjusting the steering wheel is an essential function of luxury cars.
This generation of 7 Series has also introduced night vision function, of course, my 730Li is not, and the introduction of night vision function is also to directly counter the decision made by Mercedes-Benz S-Class. I still remember that around 20 10, I took this generation of 7-series 740Li for the first time, and the night vision device presented on the screen surprised me, as if I had crossed 10 years later, which left a very deep impression on me at least that year.
Equally impressive is the design of this door handle. It may be that in order to pursue the overall sense of design, the designer integrated the handle on the wood grain decorative board of the car door. But to this day, I still think this is an incredible design. Every time I close the door, I can't find the handle to close the door at the first time. Fortunately, the latest 7 series has improved this design.
Since it is a luxury executive class car with a length of more than 5m 2, there is no need to worry about the interior space. At the same time, the adjustment range of this seat is also huge enough. I don't need to say more here. In short, space has never been a problem with this car.
Don't worry about the space behind, a few punches and fingers have become pale. My height is 183cm, and there is no pressure to sit in the back row. I don't think friends who are less than 2 meters tall should feel embarrassed.
As the most entry-level version of the 730Li leading model, this car is enough to satisfy me in the rear configuration. Rear seat heating, rear entertainment system, rear electric sunshade and charging interface are very sufficient. If it's your choice, the 740Li also has electric adjustable rear seats, ventilated rear seats, independent rear space and car refrigerator.
The trunk is also huge enough, which is the performance of a D-class car of this size, and this 730Li also has the function of an electric tailgate, which is more kind than the Mercedes-Benz S-class. Of course, in high-profile models, if there is a car refrigerator, it will take up a lot of trunk space.
This 730Li is equipped with N5B2 303.0-liter inline six-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with 258 horsepower and 3 10 Nm. In this 2-ton car, the power can only be said to be just right, without passion. Moreover, this engine is also prone to the problem of oil leakage from the valve cover gasket, and the false alarm or fault of the sensor is also common. Be sure to check carefully when buying second-hand 7 series.
Matching this 3.0-liter naturally aspirated engine is ZF's 6AT gearbox. The reason why many friends are unwilling to choose the 2009 model is that this gearbox is not the latest 8AT gearbox. In fact, after I feel it, I think the ride comfort and gear shifting are still good. The only thing that can be critical is fuel consumption, probably because of 6AT. The fuel consumption of the 2009 BMW 7 Series is indeed a bit high. The average fuel consumption of the car I test-drive today is 13.2 liters. I believe that if it is a congested urban area, the fuel consumption of this car will definitely be higher.
First of all, don't buy a closed foot pad as big as this one, because it is very easy to get stuck in the accelerator pedal. And this kind of foot pad is difficult to remove. At least I tried for a long time and didn't remove it. On the other hand, this 7-series accelerator pedal adopts floor-standing design, and the foot feel of accelerator and brake also inherits BMW, which is very comfortable and can be skillfully operated for the first time.
This generation of BMW 7 Series adopts the design of rear wheel air suspension, although it plays a positive role in isolating bumps. But after a long time, this kind of air suspension is prone to failure, such as suspension air leakage or air pump failure. The key is that the maintenance cost of this air suspension is not cheap, so when buying the second-hand BMW 7 Series, you must carefully check the rear suspension.
After the overall test drive, I think this BMW 7 Series is quite cost-effective. For less than 300,000 yuan, you can buy a luxury executive car with good condition, not old appearance and not low configuration. Isn't that sweet enough? And in the same price range, as long as you have a little patience, you may be able to buy a BMW 740Li with similar money, with better power and higher configuration.
For the self-employed, those who have company business reception needs, or friends who bought a wedding, choosing this second-hand BMW 7 Series is still a very good choice. But before buying, you must know the price of maintenance in advance, and it is best to find a familiar garage to help maintain it. Then this car will allow you to run comfortably for another three years, and maybe even help you talk about millions of businesses! ? That's all for this episode. See you next time!
