Toyota Garage, Do you trust toyota garage test driving your car? Options

[3SGTE]

I was in getting some work done to the gt-four a while ago, and while i was waiting a mechanic drove out the garage in my car and didnt return for 15mins. I wasnt even informed of this test drive of my car, and no mention of whether the mechanic is insured or not.

Whats your thoughts??
I reckon the car was given some beans.

Going in again soon, what should i say to not let happen again??

when i paid my local Toyota dealer a visit to enquire about some headlight covers, while i was in the parts dept i was amazed to hear 2 so called technicians ask each other "So what is it" (maybe de badging the front really threw them). when i went outside they asked me "nice car mate, what is it"? "It's a Celica" I told them, (I didnt want to confuse them with the details so i left it at that) I have heard of a few horror stories, and would not let ANYONE i didnt trust drive my GT4. as for a toyota dealer...............NO WAY
If a test drive is required go with them. I spend time allowing my temps to rise before i rag sh*te out of my turbo. Do you think the technician is as bothered as you? i think not
