Fun fact : That grey STi was the first one into the UK, working for UK dealer of the year for a few years running has it's advantages!

 

It must be your dads or something. Nobody aged 17 should even have a company car, let alone an STI.:p

I don't get why anyone (dealer makes it more likely, but still) would be insured for someone like you. No offense to you (I'm sure you are a great driver), but insurance for 17yr olds is very high. That also is a pretty good tip for work... And if I could get work in one of the dealerships round here, well lets say they would need some extra large insurance. For example, our local Subaru dealership recently shut down. Replaced with a Bentley one.

Because maybe they need apprentices to move cars into the bays for servicing?

 

Or to go get fuel?

 

Or to pickup/deliver a car?

 

Or to take a car on a road test to diagnose any problems with the car?

 

In a dealership of less than 5 mechanics/apprentices, and in total less than 10 staff, it is needed, trust me. Spend any amount of time in a garage environment and you'll see why.

Just ask if they need anyone to do general odd jobs here and there, I got onto the Subaru apprenticeship 2 years after doing work experience and working there, who knows, I might end up on the Rally team in a few years. Go for it! :)

[offtopic] Hey Adam, if u don't mind me asking, what do u do at work? [/offtopic]

 

No problem, ask me anything! :)

 

What do I do at work... Well, its a mix really. It's mostly general servicing work as we have quite a high numbers of cars in and out per day (around 8), you'll also find me doing work to suspension units, braking systems, electrical systems, major engine work such as rebuilds (It was one of the first things I was taught to do , not supposed to learn that until 3 years time!), a common job is rebuilding engines and gearboxes on Isuzu's (as to put it franky, they are made out of chocolate they are so poor). You'll also find me doing the odd spot of bodywork aswell, which is not as exciting but can have an interesting end result!

 

In my spare time I do home jobs, and also advice people for tuning to road-going Subarus or advice on Rallying setups.

 

Any more questions, feel free to ask! :)

One more question:

Can we see more pics of the car ? :D
