Go for it. Even if your unsuccesful its all good experience. I hate interviews but I'm a bit nervy with things like that.

Good luck with it anyway.

Cheers guys, I think it went pretty well and I should find out later this week, early next.

If I get it then it's car shopping time!

Hope you get it mate.
Car allowance would be sweet, then you can keep the Mazda for fine days and the GTI for the track. Oh and get a diesel company car that could tow the Golf on a trailer ;)

I've also got an interview tomorrow. Like you it's internal for a more senior role, more responsibility, more paperwork, but better hours and more pay. The only thing is it's not permanent, it's 9 months covering for someone who's working on a project. Though it would be good experience and could lead to a permanent job and if not, I just go back to my old one.

Good luck to you Nick.

Good luck to you too then! Being able to prove yourself, even in a temporary role, is always good.

The plan would certainly be to pick up something big, derv and good for toeing the golf!

Remember that if you get a monthly car allowance, its treated as salary, so don't forget that tax and NI comes off that as well.

p per mile is only good if you do lots and lots if miles.

Cheers Elvi, I was aware of that. I don't think there's any rules on what car I would have to have though so I would plan on something like a 2005/6 Passat estate and pocket the cash each month.

Chatting to the other Service Managers they do about 500-1000 business miles a month.
