I'm planning to import a RHD car from the UK to Belgium. What should I adjust for the local technical control (MOT)? Lights, else? Any experience? Are they inspecting in more detail if if it's a RHD? And what about insurance? Is there a difference if it's a RHD?

Any ideas as to why my Engine Management Warning light comes on - I have had it into the local dealer who said they can find no fault but it still comes on at the oddest times.  It goes off if I switch the engine off and restart after a few minutes but as the car is under warranty I want it fixed - how do I make the dealer sort this out?

Hello guys, I am a 25 year old mechanic, originally coming from Germany. I am searching for a good place to work as a mechanic around Antwerpen and Bergen op zoom. I do not speak dutch yet, but I've been working in the U.S for a month, so I am good speaking english at work. At my former job I dealt with most of the European and Asian common Motorcycles, but my favorites were always Italian ones, which was our main-business at my previous working place. I am very into modern track racing and vintage stuff, so I mostly prefer dealing with vintage stuff, because its simply more fun. Personally I would like to move into the fabricating/custom and/or restauration business. I have quite some experience at these topics, through personal projects I finalized in my leisure time and my US time where I was working at a fabrication business which dealt with HotRods, Vintage bikes and restaurations. So i have crafting basics in welding and turning, but I am good with and at doing usual mechanic-stuff. Mainly I am just searching for a place to make some money in my field, maybe someone does have some kind of advice where a nice place to work could be or maybe someone knows a shop which is searching for a qualified mechanic. Thanks
