About half a year ago I became the owner of such a pretty thing as Volkswagen Phaeton. Don't get dubious about it, I know new car costs over $90 000 and the matter really is that I bought a crashed one, after a big accident so the price for it, given it was 2.5 years old (2003 produced) was just $8 000. I know this is big money but Volkswagen Phaeton as one of my favorite models and that was a real chance to obtain it although the recovery repairs promised considerable spending. The former owner - some rich man rejected to have it and decided to sell it for any price but as soon as possible so I was a bit lucky when learned Phaeton was for sale at this price. I used to work as a mechanic at car service and still keep some ties with that workshop so I dared to purchase a crashed car. It looked as follows: in front the bumber was ruined, left fender was deformed, front axle was too; the radiator, front steering rods were broken, some parts under the hood were too, many small damages of many parts. Windscreen was to be swapped as it had cracks; headlights were absent at all; driver's door was heavily deformed, left rear passenger too, but lightly. Generally speaking the car suffered a great accident and logically fell in price. So bought this car I pit myself on trial and after two months of being in car workshops the car got new image: all the parts broken were swapped, new color, neon lights. The inner rest as it was - it is leather, and full luxury features package: board PC, cruise control, multi-model seats, parking control, adjustable system, stylish brand rugs. More over the suspension and chassis has all the possible assisting systems like ABS, TCS, PAS and others. Oh, I had just to add powerful audio system Sony. If one asks me why do I like Volkswagen Phaeton I'll reply - this is a unique car with unique perfomance features. My Phaeton has V10 5.0 engine, supercharged diesel, it consumes the record for this cubic displacement engines class 12 liters of diesel per 100 km in combied cycle and just 8.5-9 liters on the highway! But the power output amouts to 330 horse powers and record 730 of torque! Thus I was very lucky to obtain a luxury spacious sedan for nearly nothing - $8 000! And as you see its fuel consumption is very pertinent and cosy for my budget! When you get inside you realize yourself in some magic kingdom of comfort and space. Its dimensions are pertinent to carry not 5 but even 6 occupants, the rear part is very roomy! maybe in the next 2-3 months I'll make myself to buy some Pirelli or Firestone R18 tires and Kazera wheels. So every pleasant thing is just ahead with my car; it's the honor to present my car here. That's my car story.
