CM Insider

New Year. New You. New Skills to fix your car!

Many enthusiasts dream of fixing their own car, saving hundreds, or indeed, thousands of pounds worth of workshop bills, but many lack the confidence or experience to do it. Bedfordshirebased Motor Skills Training has the perfect answer – a series of accessible and carefully thought out modular training courses that can elevate the average petrolhead from zero to hero, in spannering terms, over just a few days.

Under the watchful eye of respected TV Mechanic, CM contributor (see July 2022, pages 58-63) and multiple-manufacturer acclaimed lead-engineer, Ralph Hosier, Motor Skills does exactly what it says on the tin, teaching classic and retro car owners how to keep their cars on the road by themselves, learning valuable skills, having fun, and in some cases, even opening the door to a whole new career!

A multitude of courses are available, and each one can be accessed individually, for those looking to perhaps fill in a gap in their skill set, or indeed, as a full run of modules that would effectively equip the trainee concerned with the basics to start a full restoration.
