Are there any dealers, apart from Lookers (see below) in the North West or nearby (so, Stoke, West Yorks, etc.) that have a Cupra 280 DSG available as a test driver?
I had a very quick round-the-block go in one in the Lookers showroom in Stockport. I asked about an unaccompanied test drive, but the 12 year old salesman said, "umm, I'll have to ask my manager". After asking his manager by carrier pigeon given the length of time he took, he came back with, "no dealer will give you an unaccompanied drive". Which is a lie. 'Cos I've been on ones before.
I liked the very brief time I had in the Cupra, and I'm tempted to go with my heart and splurge out on one, but not on the basis of a quick, 'up to the roundabout and back' drive with a 'droid sitting next to me.
Another title for this thread could be, "why can't dealerships sell cars?".
