    Test drives...

    I had that when I went to an import place down in Southampton. I'd spoken to them a few times the week leading up to my visit & told them I was eager to test both GTRs as I was interested in buying one of them - I turn up after a three hour drive & the place seems to be locked up. After about 20 minutes looking around the 2 Skylines, someone popped out to see if they could help - I explained I had spoken to someone & made an appointment to come down which he didn't believe & tried to accuse me of wanting a joy ride (Yes, I have nothing better to do on my weekend off than take a 6 hour round trip for a joyride ) Eventually he phoned his boss who agreed to the test drive. Jump started the car, drove it all of a mile & it ran out of fuel The 2nd car had 2 flat tyres & big chunks of paint missing

    Surely at that point you just lie? Why on earth would you tell the truth??!! +1 You just agree with them & after the test drive tell them its not the car for you
  3. Soooo true. There was one appointment that was completely out of the blue though, I'd even forgotten he was a member here

    Test drives...

    The only place I ever had an issue with a test drive was with Seat when I bought my Cupra. They kept trying to talk me into a 1.2 & tried telling me the Cupra was too expensive for me I think the garage I looked at the Maserati gave the best service, they let me get on with it & I got a decent drive out of it
  6. +1 - would be happy to take step back +1 I did ask Martin a while back to find someone to replace me
  7. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... zone=PDPz1 ^^ That one is worth the extra £10. Ratchet spanners are a godsend at times
  8. Fascinating I once put £80 of fuel in my Z - 160miles later it was gone The Skyline isn't much better
  9. Send a PM to Andlid. He had similar problems & found a way around it
  10. Dcash did a partial tuck & it was a lot of work. I really wanted it done but decided it was too much hassle
  11. You can still see a tyre gap.........Rejected as alternative!!!!
  12. All done through iPod now I have stacks of CDs stashed away in the attic but everything I listen to now is done through my iPod
