Ask your college, you have to be paid that at least. Its the minimum wage for Apprentices. Speak to your college or course people about it you may get lucky.

I tried getting into parts. I applied for all the apprenticeships and had interviews with a few companies. But then every company around my area changed their mind about taking people on. I would of had the choice of 3 jobs otherwise.

Not really, a parts advisor at Vauxhall starts on 17k basic, you get sales related bonuses and thats only the starting wage, anchor is probably around 20k.
