Hope You liked the car and learned more about this exotic and its cool features. Please feel free to share it with your friends and I would be happy to show the car and answer any questions
The only one in Europe
ONE OWNER WITH NO ACCIDENT HISTORY AND ORIGINAL 76000 KM
Its a one original owner car with verified 76000km on odometer, no accident history (all elements have factory paint) and no work required. Car has minor stone chips on front bumper and hood and overall is in a great condition. Car has was imported into Romania when it was new and has individual EU road worthiness certification. Individually homologated - Extremely hard and expensive process to go though. There is no other Hongqi HQ430 known to have EU papers, making it unique exotic on European roads.
​
This is a top of the range Elite version with all possible options and original price in China of well above 140,000 EUR equivalent. My estimate is that it costed overall more than 250,000 EUR to have this car bought, brought and successfully certified for EU.
​
I am a value investor who happens to love cars and not a car dealer. No matter how much I love this car, I cannot justify using it as my weekend car. Its too rare and unique for that purpose. Will try to find a new home for it in a museum or collection.
​
Please let me know if you know any car museum or private collection would be interested in displaying this rare beauty.
