Preferred IELTS score is 6.5 bands plus and for TOEFL it is good to have score of 90 plus.Though this requirement may vary from university to university and from course to course.
Besides high scores in TOEFL or IELTS you also need to have good percentage of marks in undergraduate degree as well (70%plus) for admission in masters program in UK.
Average fees at UK universities is around 15,000 pounds per-year, and average living expenses are about 10,000 pounds per year, the tuition fee and living expenses might be more or less depending on the university and location.
Please note that universities in UK have 2 admission intake in a year namely:

So it would be always advisable to take TOEFL or IELTS test atleast 3-4 months in advance of your planned admission intake.

However please remember since Germany is a non English speaking country, and their national language is German, so it is always advisable for students to pursue some basic level German language course before leaving for Germany.
The average tuition fees to pursue masters degree from universities in Germany is around 1500- 2000 Euro per semester, and average living expenses are about 10,000- 12,000 Euro per year, the tuition fee and living expenses might be more or less depending on the university and location.
For your reference find below some of the finest universities in Germany to pursue masters degree in mechanical engineering and related fields:

Now coming to jobs then please remember Germany is one of the few countries in Europe which has good job prospects, but please remember getting jobs would be very competitive as you need to compete with the natives of that country first and then with remaining international candidates.
I would suggest that as a student you should give your 100% in whichever course you opt for, and if you do well then getting a good job with handsome salary should not be a problem.
