crofty136 Fiesta Nutter Registered: 16/10/05 Posts: 1478 Loc: Leeds	Most people love uni but i have never intended to go to uni and after doing my A levels i was sure i didnt want to go. I need to get myself a career rather than just a job that i have at the minute but i atleast want to have a car first so i dont have to limit my job searching to places on bus routes!

You'd never get found out anyway, so it's not a problem. _________________________

Indeed, thats perfectly acceptable m8tey, I know i could not do without my car when I get home... its just too hard to get the bus everywhere... its easy down here as I can walk everywhere, its all in close proximity!!! You can get yourself a good career without uni, its just sometimes a little easier when u do have a degree. Keep going!!! Were all here for the same reason, we all love cars... Good Luck with finding yours _________________________

A Focus Focus ey? Very nice, Id love the feeling of owning a true specimen of ford rally breeding like that! Every time I see one (which is rare) It always appears alot more special than other cars like the R32 and Clio V6 etc. I'd sooner splash the cash on a older than a megane 225 or Golf Mk5 GTi. _________________________

DavidChief, Past Admin of this site and Owner of FordSites.com and FordDesktops.com used to have a Focus and he used to take me out in it every week, used to drive to his work and then he would drive to football in it... what an experience!!! I loved that car, was gutted the day he sold it for the BMW 130i but that also is a very nice car, just doesn't have that spirit about it!!! _________________________

Bingo, I'm currently looking for work, and didn't go to Uni. Most of the decent jobs seem to be offered only to graduates. Luckily the industry I've got all my experience in (5 years, I feel so old), is very specific and jobs are generally not offed to grads, as they wouldn't know where to start. But trying to change industry is a real nightmare. Uni isn't for every1 mate, do whatever you feel is best for you, just thought I'd give my opinion. _________________________

Gareth Fiesta Nutter Registered: 22/07/05 Posts: 2274 Loc: NW London	Yes mate you def will find one, just be prepared to start at the bottom rung. Then like I have you can work your way up (hard work & dedication required) and by the time you're in your early / mid 20's you should be well on your way down your chosen career path. _________________________
