Self employed, keeping MG Rover vehicles on the road with an alternative to either cheap eBay Chinese back-street factory tat, or main dealer parts.
I import parts from around the world, test them on mine and my friend's cars (and sometimes a small group of customers who help out) and bring them to market if they're up to scratch.
Worryingly enough, parts directly from the 'new' MG in China are seemingly of A1 quality, with pretty much 100% reliability across the board.
The 'middle ground' approach to the market is proving popular, currently looking for a decent sized industrial unit to move into.
Would love to do that job![]()

Business is good, I take it?
I am a telecomms engineer
FYI getting fired doesn't count as retirement.

SO what does everybody do here, work wise? It'd be interesting to see what kind of jobs us geeks have, any far out jobs like Steve Irwin style, any fighter pilots that could share a story, Wolf of Wall Street types or pro gamers?
I'm tech support (2nd line) for a large blue chip company, it's a grind day to day but third line is in sight, just waiting for the job opportunity then bam, life get's a lot better, I hope.
Nah... it was just that I was made an offer which I just couldn't refuse... and was very glad that I did so!![]()
