Test drives .... Anyone ever test driven something really fast just for a laugh, with no intention of buying? ... i've found a new hobby now im unemployed - its called 'TEST DRIVE SUPERCARS'! Tried out a TVR 350C yesterday - boy i nearly fucking shit myself. Talk about absolutely insane. Proper ferrari beating performance - Although i drove it like a granny. Today im booked in to try out a Porsche 911 Cabriolet at 12.30 today
They never took one look at my license, although i turned up wearing a suit and putting on my best fake posh voice
i've always wondered about test drives - just i'd never DARE - it's so cheeky. that must be the english in me :laugh: some places offer 24hour/weekend test drives!??!?! if i had the stones - FUCK buying a car!!!!!
I think i'd find it harder trying to take say, a honda civic type R out for a test drive since im sure the dealerships get loads of chancers and test pilots out in those ..... i find new car places quite pretentious places so i wouldnt dare .... although, i think with really quick cars - i think if you make it sound like your in a position to buy, then they will kiss your arse. Ive never been so nicely treat yesterday with the TVR. .... the point where you bugger off home with a good excuse as to why you arent buying is the difficult bit tho
My dad was telling me about one of his friends who did this, apparently he had major financial troubles but none of his friends or associates new about it because every tie they saw him he had a "new" car.
It was class! Most powerful thing ive driven before yesterday was a 2.0 Twinspark Alfa engine..... but this was 320 horses (the TVR was 350 but i didnt have the guts to even push it). Loads of power which just kept on coming, unlike the 1.25 fiesta i drove to the garage where your flooring it to get it moving. Felt glued to the road as well, and overtaking was amazing. ..... im just putting together a business plan now to work out how many cowies, prescription drugs and pirated dvd's i need to sell to be able to afford one!
From an ex car salesman point of view, people like you are teasing cunts. Not literally of course.. BEFORE I ever did that job, I would have happily done a run in several cars but it would only make mine feel inadequate!
haway man nass, i've been selling since before i could talk and i'd do it, just gives u an advantage when it comes to making excuses!!!
the director of a certain large bakery chain done this with a rolls, he took it out for the weekend and when he returned it the salesman couldn't believe his eyes as it had xx,xxx new miles on the clock... turned out he'd use the car to drive round to each one of his bakeries (up and down the country) to give his employees a motivational speech
