Galliano Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I'm at college in the National Diploma In Vehicle Maintenance and Technology. Its a good course but may be finishing my first year and not going back for my second due to landing myself an interview to get into the trade anyways. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
addz Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I wouldn't bother with mechanics mate.Stick with plumbing or even consider doing electrician course - I wish I went for either of these when I left school Oh well, you live and you learn, I should have listened to my older brother who was none the wiser.

yaristurbo Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 youll learn as much as you need to know dude Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 yes but alot of garages cant be arsed to take some1 on who hasnt got any qualifications because that means they'd have to pay for an appernticeshp for you, you'd be better off with the qualification you've pretty much already got and just learnin in your own time about cars, because the cars you would be working on wont be yuor own so yuo probably wouldnt find it any where near as rewarding or exciting Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Plumbing would be my choice mate, keep to working on cars as a hobby, you'll pick most things up as you go along Oh and plumbing must be good, I would probably end up "plumbing" the MILF's in the houses Quote Link to post Share on other sites
