    Check out the Fas webiste. Or even pay them a visit. They used to help and advise you in how to apply for an apprenticeship.

    When i started i just went to different garages with my cv and asked if they were looking for apprentices.when i eventually got a job i had a 3 month probation period(not every garage make you do this)
    after the 3 months my boss registered me with fas and it went from there really..
    the rest is the same as most apprenticeships where you have 3 block releases.the 1st(phase 2)is for 20 weeks,the 2nd(phase 4) is for ten,and the 3rd(phase 6)is also ten.the rest of the time is spent in the garage.
    best of luck!;)

    Drop in loads of CV's to the service managers of different garages and actually ask him, don't just give him the CV.
