Premier MOT

Hi Gaz,,I've worked on cars/trucks for the last 35 years but never went to college or got any paperwork,,I learnt most of what I know from watching other mechanics who worked for my father who had a breakers yard & I was stripping trucks down for export from the age of 14.I now have my own tyre shop/mot & repair centre so basically don't need the 4-5 years training some folk need.

If that's the case then yes it's a good thing you can get your qualification. Again, nothing personal but I still think it demeans the qualification that you can get a level 3 in 6 days. Don't you?

You've worked hard and got the experience thats what counts. If you really want to be a tester then why not sit the NTTA exam?

Iv done the imi level 3 with them. There a great bunch of people and very helpful. The only down fall with imi is that you need keep it valid. So you retrain every 3 years.

They have teachers passed ve and testers as well as fully trained imi tutors. You will pass because they teach you what you need to know. But then you still need to pass 3 days vosa and demo test which you can pay them to do with you. And they train you to test. And you also have them fighting your corner on. Demo test if ve is in a bad mood. I never done that with them so can't comment but seen loads of people doing them down in Southend on Sea.

Hope that helps

Highly recommended from me.

Well ive now got my level 3,,so next step is the 3 days with DVSA then my demo test so hopefully by end of Feb I should be testing if all goes well.

I am fairly sure that refresher courses are "suspended" until further notice

Get yourself familiar with the equipment & if you get some practice in you will be fine
