Only just noticed this post wow, Yes will love to have the RS turbo engine in the car BUT it wont be this one it will be on a 3 Door instead Not just yet should have tomorrow hopefully we shall see same here i was being told my mechanics course was going to costing the multiple thousands but they got it down to £985 for the year Yes well as i am turning 19 in just short of 19 days as soon as i am 19 the goverment stop funding. It is stupid they want you to have a job but wont allow you to get the qualifications to get a job :/ what level course are you doing as a mechanic? and is the £985 including all the tests and crap?

Jordan99940 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 yeah its 700 tuition fees 155 materials and rest is exam fees its a nvq and this is my second level and im dreadingly going to hopefully go back to for a level 3 which again is going to cost me more. i though exactly the same they wonder why the unemplymet rate is so high its because no one is willing to take on people without the qualifications and to get the qualification you have to pay thousands and how you going to afford to do that no one has sort of money lying around at this age its ridiculous thats why i didnt vote Cuntservatives but bloody Cameron and his Butt pirate Clegg got voted in Rant over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
