Over the last few weeks my 16yr old son has been having various interviews for an apprenticeship with the RRG group, well this morning he had a phone call and has been accepted for one with RRG Lexus in Bolton and i am well chuffed, He starts on the 26th August they supply him with a tool kit and full working gear to start off with. Me and his mum are so proud of him

So that means your son can work on your car for free rather than the other way around (which is mostly the case). :)
