testdrive cancelled by dealer

I waited 6 weeks for this day because today I had a reservation to testdrive the M5. My "date" was at 11:00 and at 9:30 the dealer called me to say the testdrive was not possible due to the crash ( Holland ) from last week.


He told me that it will take at least 2 to 3 weeks to make another appointment.
This crashed M5 was the only one in Holland for demo driving. ( strange )

But the good news was that my own M5 arrives around feb 5. But I agreed with delivery date feb 13 because he wanted to show the car on feb 12 in his showroom next to the new F30.

I agreed but only if the doors were locked.

That's too bad! Looks like your first drive will be in your very own M5 in just a couple of weeks!

Looking forward to hearing about your car and seeing it.

Wow, I'm wondering how these test drive crashes happen. Is it because of weed legalization in Holland?

possible.
But the crash with the M5 happened because the driver didnt knew what the was capable of.
The crash wit the 1M happened because my friend wanted to scratch his leg. The moment he looked up it was already to late.
