A Hongqi Guoyue 17-seater, registered in February 2025 and with only 10,000 kilometers on the odometer, had a list price of 498,000 yuan but was actually sold for 380,000 yuan to a car owner in Tianjin. The car is really cheap now.
Maintain objective expectations. Vehicles over 5 years old inevitably show signs of decreased paint gloss, slight aging of rubber seals, irreversible patina on interiors, and surface rust on chassis components. As long as core structure and mechanical failures are not involved, these are normal depreciation characteristics over time.

This involves personal privacy, and we have no right or ability to retrieve personal driving violation records from the traffic police system. We can only infer if there was aggressive driving by checking if the engine has been reprogrammed with a higher-level ECU (stage 1/2) or if the transmission has a history of severe overheating.
