Another one who wonders what the job was.

I also wonder whether the OP read the job description before applying for the job.

Just a guess, but I wonder if the job description stated that a motorised vehicle (car) is required for the job. Some jobs do required that the employee have a car so that the employee can drive out to the job sites or visit clients. Employees are then reimbursed for vehicle expenses.

If the OP didn't read the job description, the reason he was turned down for the job might have been because he showed evidence that he couldn't read.
