Not exactly the way you want to see your car, past or present. |  This sounds really strange to me. I know in the U.S. there is no way anybody at the DMV would "TEST DRIVE" any vehicle. They would not even go for a ride in it. At least not in California.
 
Really sorry to hear about this. Hopefully he can get it fixed.
