In Topic: No Degree - No Teacher Licence!

OP. I know this is an older thread BUT if you were working as a teacher with a work permit prior to 2003 (i think april) then you have grandfather rights to a teachers license.  Teachers at my school got those.

sent from my Wellcom A90+

Yes, but my understanding is that you needed to be teaching continuously since that time, with no breaks. I've been teaching since 2001, and my school 'lost' one years teacher licence document / paperwork. Hence I couldn't be grandfathered. Luckily I had completed a teaching course in the meantime. One teacher missed out on grandfathering by only a month - she started work in June 2003.

Thanks, that may work but I would like to know if it is expected to get beter than that or will remain 6-10 months. They will lose a lot of sales at that time frame.

It may change, but I don't even know if the car is 'available' yet. It the meantime I bet there is a building backlog over the coming months. At the show I think they were offering 50% discount on insurance. Then there is the mitsubishi mirage which I think will have the best economy of the lot - quite cheap, free insurance, but I'm not sure on delivery times. I don't like it's look though and looks lower spec than the suzuki. It seems delivery is slow for many vehicles due to backlogs after the floods. You would need to phone around to check on deliver times. If you don't mind waiting, my choice would be the suzuki. I see too many things I don't like in the other vehicles, but I don't know what the almera is like.

I've been told 6-10 months for delivery. Might be worth the wait - looks much better than the brio (the brio goes well, and good fuel economy - I drove it briskly on open roads getting almost 20km/l on a test drive). Not sure if the suzuki will do as well for fuel - the 1.2 is a proven motor from overseas so I don't see a problem with it - the problem will be when they sell thousands and don't have enough service centres to service them!

It looks to me to be a 1.5mm gap not 15 mm which is 1.5 cm. I am not sure if they would be able to do anything with that. But if pushed they may just fill it with silicone! I think I'd rather the gap there...

I guess one can inspect the test car thoroughly, but you never know if your car, when delivered, will be free from problems. I would hate the dealers typical "that's normal" response to some of these issues.
