Hi, My name is Will, I'm 16. I live in Halstead, Essex and am into basically anything with an engine which is why I joined. I've been interested in anything mechanical from a very young age. Just finished my Level 1 in motor vehicle as a part time course 1 day a week through school. I've now bought my first set (more like a pair) of wheels which I've just finished completely rebuilding. I'm also quite heavily into welding of all types (my first welder was a Christmas present at the age of 12) as well as general metalwork and general engineering. I'm starting an Engineering apprenticeship at the end of August this year.
Hope this post is in the right place.

I think that car dealership has gawn long ago now?
Must have been 10 years ago I guess -- I think it was called Europa Cars. I used to work in Ipswich and ended up going your way when they were doing roadworks on the A12. Was quite a nice run through Halstead and Sudbury to Braintree, then connect with the A120. 
then at 18 take your motorcycle test. you won't regret it martin84 said:

OP, welcome!
You sound like my brother, 30 odd years ago, dragging home abandoned bikes. He is now a mechanical engineer master etc. Builds custom bikes for the American market, so good luck. Also, if you feel like changing from 'devil 2 wheel machines' to much nicer 4 wheels
and would like a really incredible career, look up www.F1jobs.com and start writing a couple of emails.Good luck young chap!
Welcome, I'm from Sudbury, like the chap a few posts above!
And the dealer in halstead was indeed Europa Cars, many many years ago, I remember making my dad stop out side the window as there was a Ferrari F40 in there, god knows how old I was but it must have been getting on 15 years ago!
Just bought a car from Halstead yesterday actually. Not the aforementioned F40 though
Best of luck with your welding/mechanical projects.
