I don't agree with you. I think nugent is right.

These 3 mile test drives may seem innocuous but you don't know how the car was driven. Look at the guy in Texas whose M5 had been totaled by Autobahn BMW during an oil change visit. If that tech hasn't clipped the kerb, he would have abused the car and gotten away with it.

Further nugent's trip is to replace a piece of center console trim. It does not warrant a test drive by any reasonable logic.

Unless you don't mind there being a 5% chance your car gets totaled, and a higher probability of brake abuse, cold engine abuse, clutch abuse, launch control abuse, then don't complain.

I think he should get the guy fired.

Here's the email (assuming its the same format as everyone else's email in BMW NA):
