Go to a showroom wanting to test drive a car for the second time.

Him:
"What do you want to drive it for again, you've driven it once already?"

Me:
"Would you buy a car on the basis of one short test drive?"

Him:
"......................"

Depends how much it's up for.
 
He's thinking you're still interested so didn't work out the massive issues it has. If you have a second test drive you might notice the rumbling wheel bearings or that the engine explodes if you hit the red line. Plus someone else drove it after you, who had a leaking colostomy bag.

There's still a chance you'll buy if he offends you, but you probably won't if you drive it again.

You're not worth his bother for a tyre kicker.

The car market is so hot now, and had been since the Covid lack of Chinese parts, hell sell it for more in days, if not hours.

Every car I've ever bought has been on that basis, apart from a few 'classics' that weren't in a driveable condition.

I'm genuinely staggered though at the number of people who buy cars online from sites like Cinch without any test drive at all, just look at a few pictures, click a button and it's yours, seems weird to me.

Cars are viewed almost like white goods by a lot of people now.

Buy it, use it, exchange it for the next 1. That's if you actually want to buy 1
 
some sales people are trained to make you feel that you cannot afford the product so that you buy it to prove them wrong. Very common with luxury brands like Porsche for example.

Think his sense of humour got lost in transit.
Sounds like he's earned his commission this week and can't be bothered getting off his ar*e working on a Sunday.
 
If you are buying new there are certain questions you need to ask. Same with boats.
 
Reminded me of my old chimaera, one question I should have asked.
