For the mechanics..

I seem to be asked on a more regular basis to help with friends cars, either servicing or just general tinkering, as they know I enjoy doing it.

To my surprise the other half suggested looking at doing a bit more at weekends as an earner on the side. Obviously friends know that I am capable enough but in order to work on other peoples cars I assume I'm going to need something to prove that.

Before getting ahead of myself I wanted to see if anyone knew what qualifications were available and/or recommended to make myself more marketable. I've checked my local colleges and all seem to offer either apprenticeships or full time City and Guilds diplomas. I guess that to most experience probably carries more weight but are recommendations enough to get by on?
