Just wondered if any of you lot have caught the test drive blag bug?...... whereby you try to get a test drive in something even if having no intention of buying?

I've got a Mini Cooper S today (24hr loan)...... but my best blags so far have been the 996 C4S, NSX, M3 and a VX220 which the dealer lent me for a week

Does anyone else take the p*ss like this or is it just me?

 

whoever the salesmen are they aren't qualifying you very well is all I can say

 

I Keep test driving Vauxhalls as they give you

 

How do you qualify someone who turns up in a 25k car? and asks to test a 40k one?

 

I've got a new audi S8 for a day or two later this week

will post some feedback if anyone wants. I can see a whole new thread
emerging

It's not, but then they're not to know that, are they? Ditto for the local Noble dealer. I'm seriously smitten with the M12 after driving one on a Supercars day recently.

 

I can't believe I haven't done this already - where's that Yellow Pages ...
