Marc Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I am now a Trainee Car Salesman for bridgend garage in Kilwinning! I am wokring at the ayr branch, irvine branch, and kilwinning branch to begin with and from that they'll find where i'm best suited!The thing is the Irvine branch is a mitsubishi dealer so hopefully will get to deliver some evo's in a year or two (,")Anyone else in this trade and what do you think of it?

Tahiti Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 My first job was working in the trade, and I know some car salesmen (main dealer and otherwise).If you're good at it, you can make some real money (and depending on the dealership, bonuses/"prizes" etc). The only real downside is that you're often sitting about doing nothing.On a positive note, you get to drive plenty of cars! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
