Hi all,
Im thinking about enrolling on a basic car maintenance evening course next year at my local College. Its Ã,£60.00 for a five week course, 2 hours every Monday. I want to learn a bit about cars and stuff and this seems like a good idea. Has anyone done anything similar?
All comments appreciated.
Cheers,
Riv
Sounds like a good idea, you would get that money back after you have serviced your car yourself.
Surely a Haynes manual for your car would be better and save you some money over this course?
Normally a manual includes instructions for a lot of stuff which isnt in a course and courses usually dont cover specific cars.
However for someone who is totally unsure of what they are doing a course can help them know whats what.
TBH I ould prefer a manual to a course.
Ive got a Hayes manual for my car which is great. I was just thinking of going to learn the general stuff really - the basics. Might have to skip it now though as my Im actually away on holiday when it starts doh!
A manual is fine and you can do pretty much anything with a haynes bol but a course will probably give you a bit of practical experiance like changing plugs or whatever without you having to piss around on your own car.
Probably itll be indoors too :)
