I’ve never been able to get over the idea that they ‘borrow’ the car or that they boot it from cold during the ‘test run’. I know I’ve been told this is an old wives tale but years ago I used a very prestigious lotus dealer some time ago and I saw some 18something mechanics do a ‘Ferris bueller’ on a customers esprit V8, literally driving it out the back door and wheel spinning off down the road.
A few years ago I was overtaken in my M3 by a loon going way too fast in a Z3, we caught up in town traffic and ... funny old thing ... it was a BMW salesman from my (then and now) dealer in ‘someone else’s car’ (probably the demo). Although at first I thought it was a hairdresser.
