How To do a test drive

[jaymanek]

Donuts in a tesco car park is customary....

On a serious note, if you are buying something as complex as a CL, you need to take someone with you who knows what to look for. Or book it into a local specialist or even main dealer if no one else around.
I suggest you go take a look and have a drive, but before handing over any cash, get the car checked out properly.
You wont pick up on any real issues unless you know exactly what to look for.

I totally agree with you. That is the trick I think into this game. Do you think the dealer has competent enough staff for these cars ? I have the image of some guy who sees a fault on the Star check and just get the new place to replace without even thinking.
