Banchory drive day

[andyc]

I think they get these days totally wrong. They must be hoping for offshore guys to come along or something. If they ever did one on a weekend they would gather way more potential customers.....and no matter what anyone says.....that's why they have these things!!

The idea with expensive cars is if you can afford one you are in a job were an afternoon off for a test drive is easily achieved. keeps the test pilot numbers down.

Disagree....I'm minted and it's because I don't take time off for test drives!!

We used to have them during the week mainly because I was a one-man band and had to staff the Edinburgh showroom on a Saturday...! Obviously don't know the arrangements now I'm not there....

It's what I was told by an exotic car dealer.

Certainly not all the time with 'contractor' / 'self employed' / 'director of their own limited company type.(this is where take home I find takes a significant jump). Sure they are allowed to take half the afternoon off, but with rig activity /workload it is mostly balls to the wall.

Agree to some extent with directors of larger companies when quite often they have senior managers below them or even staff below them are able to cover, or even they can cover with blackberry if rq'd.

Last time would have been better Graeme as we had the Hethel Road Show there as well.

He also said that you can tell if the person can afford it by their watch and shoes.

Fair generalisation!

Obviously not applicable to all!

It's what I was told by an exotic dancer.

Excellent!

Having sold high value items for the last few years, you would have to be very stupid to judge any potential customer by any of the means mentioned above!

Jeez, I am only repeating what he said ! it just seemed to make sence.

It makes perfect sense, but isn't very applicable!
