i would like to test drive a car for a day or two, but really wouldn t fancy my chances (age). i e .... no chance

anyone had experience trying to get a test drive for a couple of days?

After I drive in it I hate it, At the time my daughter was 4 and there still wasnt enough leg room 4 her in the back. No hassles just turned up signed a few forms they phoned their insurance company and I left my car with them for the weekend which didnt bother me, I was going 2 b drivin the rx8 anyway.
