How else are you going to get a job if you dont ring them or make some form of contact with them? they wont come to you.
only other thing I can think of is go to a careers place but you will still have to get in touch with Vauxhall at some point

Wont harm to ask. If thats not the right place to ask then I'm sure they would be able to tell you a number to ring or who to go and see.
If your wanting to do an apprenticeship I'd imagine you would go to the dealer that you want to work for and ask if they have any jobs going and if they want to take you on as an apprentice. Then they prob send you off once every few months to a college for training and the rest of the time you work for them

make a cv and send it to them with a cover letter saying your interested in an apprenticeship or go to your local dealer and ask. they wont see it as informal, theyl know you arent shy

why is ford the enemy? theres no rivalry between vuaxhall and ford to make it an enemy. no vauxhalls can match fords, more rivalry between ford and jap crap
