I had never driven a Ford falcon in my life, only ever Commodores from VK to VE so i wnet down to a local used car dealer with a mate and pretended to want to buy an EB 6cyl. He had no idea we were just in it for a joy ride so we took it out for most likley the hardest test drive of its life. I now know why Commodore is number 1.
That certainly shows the low level of common sense and lack of respect for someone elses property you must have. I bet you are also one of those idiots who bangs their car door on another car and drives off.

I think what's more worse than a car salesman is the hot chick they bring in to explain to you the 'additional options' you can add to your vehicles.
When I bought my girlfriend's AH Astra from Berwick Kia, they pulled out this leggy blonde in her daughter's top and the tightest skirt to explain to me about the Parrot Bluetooth kit, 16" Alloys, Parking Sensors and Darkest Legal Tint.
Financially, I did the right thing, and said no to all of them (they were all like 50% more expensive than if I bought them elsewhere), but other than that, I wonder what could have been......

lol yeah the holden dealership in mackay did that exact same thing to me when i brought my lancer and i'm proud to say i am not strong willed and brought everything she threw at me :smoking:

Currently looking for a new car and have so far been to 7 dealers for quotes. Only been given one real quote out of all of them.
All the other places have taken my details but have heard no response for over 2 weeks.

really makes you wonder if they really want to sell a car!
