I walked in off the street on a day off, in ripped jeans and scruffing about clothes, the first time I met Graeme. He was speaking to me like an old mate, and got me to test drive an S1 on the forecourt that same day (I'd just wandered in on spec to get some info)undone wrote:Thanks everyone for such a welcome... it's been a week and owning the car's been out of this world...
If that's your yellow elise stu then I'm sure i saw it on saturday...i was the scruffy looking one that looked out of place in a lotus dealership
I'd say graeme was certainly a good salesman!
That was nearly 7 years ago.
I still own the car I test drove that day

You should know...
Re: edinburgh newbie
The price of the 111s (below) is about to drop to try to promote the sale......I was chuckling at the irony!
