Toyota's just a joke atm!

 

I done my 4 day assessment in nottingham in january and needed to do 2 courses to pass, both come through, one course was for the 16 and 17th of march the other 17th and 18th of march, one in nottingham the other in salfords! I may work wonders but I aint got a fekking cape!

 

So my manager cancelled one of the courses and told me i was going on the 16 to 17th course! Fine thats that sorted i thought... WRONG, turns out they've cancelled all academy courses until after april now due to this accelerator recall! :(

 

When i was up there for the 4 day course they said that when the results come through the courses needed to complete the license must be done in 6 months of taking the 4 day assessment or we'll have to do another 4 day assessment!

 

They best not try to say i've got to do another 4 day after they've cancelled them! :(

Just waiting for my ACT clutch i ordered to show up next week and then the box can go in and ready to start it up :)

 

I know it seems like im dragging my feet but with the mishaps before christmas with losing my job, becoming extremely ill and then getting my job back, ive had no time realy to do anything at all.

 

Fingers crossed it should be 100% done by next month, only thing left to show up is the exhaust.

Its taken a while and its been a stressful ride with me losing my job late last year, then going in and out of hospital to getting my job back and having no time to work on it. Just glad this project is finaly coming to an end and ill be able to use it soonish :)

 

I could of just bought one that worked and avoided all the hassle but wheres the fun in that :D
