Or the other end of the spectrum:
"My car has an intermitant fault"
"We will take it for a good test drive sir"
"All fixed sir"
"And you even managed to do the test drive without clocking up
any miles at all"
"uuummmm"

This is not unusual, particularly in the case of sales staff, but it will be in vehicles that are up for sale or the demonstration models; the staff who use such vehicles for personal use are, as far as I am aware, fully liable for tax.
Using a customer's car, however, is a definite no-no and the matter should be raised with the dealership principal as quickly as possible.
Either an unexpected personal visit or a confidential letter to the dealership principal should elicit some favourable response - if not get in touch with your local newspaper...:-)
The only drawback will be/probably proving that such a high mileage was covered.

LOL! How many dealerships have you worked in. I don't think I've known one where the customers cars are *not* used. I know one of the mechanics at the local MB dealership. I saw him picking his lad up in a classic Merc belonging to a famous rock star!! Did a real 'double take' until I realised who it was.
Most customers never know because they don't check the mileage.
One of my best stories is from the early '80's at the local Rover dealer. Two newish 3.5's were in for work. Both taken out for lengthy 'test drive' at about the same - and the race is on!
Come to hump-backed bridge and lead car has to brake hard over the crest for slow traffic. Second comes belting up behind and ploughs into it. A lot of explaining to do!
