have a word with the wife 299 Posted April 14, 2018 wonder if the test drive passenger, ie, "salesperson" will also be fined for allowing the car to be used without insurance or road tax, as i cannot see any reason , other than car not showing on mid and not taxed as to why it was chased in first place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grant8064 219 Posted April 14, 2018 I'm so glad we don't sell anything even remotely prestige or sporty. Can only imagine the crap you have to deal with regarding test drives Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lakeside 94 Posted April 15, 2018 I don’t sell anything of any great value but it’s still always on the back of my mind when rough looking punters turn up. A local private seller had his Merc robbed at knifepoint whilst on test drive a couple of years back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BHM 994 Posted April 15, 2018 Tbh I don’t think how rough someone looks is an indication of whether or not they possess a full licence. What I’ve sometimes thought is about immigrants. I think they need to convert to a UK licence after a period of living here but I’ve no idea of the rules. Money talks & for a few mile test drive I’m not too bothered. Until something goes wrong 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
