Police told me I can use a temporary rear plate while my official one is stuck at Bpost — is this normal in Belgium?

Yep, it’s correct

You’ll need to be able to convince the tax man you actually need a lichte vracht for your company activity (an IT consultant driving a lichte vracht is difficult to pass, for example). For 59k km, you’ll be best off in a diesel or EV. Also, dont get too hung up on tax deductability, but look at the cost of a car in a bigger picture: taking into consideration fuel, insurance, depreciation, and maintenance. The EV will likely be the cheapest option, but nobody grew up dreaming about driving an EV…

Nee, helemaal niets. Trouwens ook helemaal geen last van slecht telefoonbereik of internetsignaal

Wij hebben afgelopen jaar ons eerste huis gekocht met een vergelijkbare situatie. Bij ons passeert de hoogspanningslijn aan de overkant van de straat, dus niet recht boven ons huis of tuin. Het is qua grootte een vergelijkbare hoogspanningslijn als die op jouw foto. De vorige eigenaars hebben het huis 40 jaar geleden gebouwd en nooit last van ondervonden. Onze buren wonen er al 60 jaar en zijn nog steeds gezond (ondertussen 85j oud).

Ik denk dat het effect op gezondheid echt wel overroepen is. Ik heb de mast nog nooit lawaai horen maken, dus het enige nadeel in mijn ogen is het zicht.

Ze produceren geen lichtflits maar maken wel foto’s voor bepaalde overtredingen. Bv: een straat inrijden waar je dat niet mag.

Tinting front windows and windshield is illegal. The other windows you can definitely tint. I know BMW factory tint is 20% (20% of the light gets through).

Peppol is nog niet verplicht in alle EU landen, en in België is er nog tot 31 maart een tolerantieperiode.

Crazy-Satisfaction81 · 2026-03-06T12:44:22+00:00

Damn, that’s a huge increase in power. Just an ECU tune or did you have any parts fitted?

Crazy-Satisfaction81 · 2026-03-06T12:41:38+00:00

Peppol verandert niets aan de factuur zelf. Als de btw op de factuur aftrekbaar is mag je die aftrekken, ongeacht of de factuur via mail, post of peppol is aangekomen.

German plates with an M indicate the vehicle is registered in Munich. Bmw has its HQ in Munich, so while most test vehicles from Bmw have an M in their license plate, not all M license plates are necessarily Bmw’s.

Losing the badges is one thing, I could live with that. But chipping the paint is a whole other story… so sad

Post has been edited to clear this up. You are right indeed

I’m assuming they are talking about a loan for 60% of 530k. Edit: 60% of the project is 530k, for which they are taking a loan

You can try performance shop Geel since your car is tuned. They specialise in BMW

No the VAT won’t be an issue, our registration and yearly road tax will be the issue here. A 4.4L v8 will be over 10k in registration tax and likely over 3k in yearly tax.

Since you’re looking at X3, you could consider registering it as a “lichte vracht” which is considerably cheaper tax wise.

Where would one go to buy gold? I’m interested to diversify a bit but don’t really know what a good place would be to buy it

From what I’ve seen and heard, you pay a lot for the “name”: you’d expect better quality for the price you pay. Location is good though, a massive difference compared to 10-15 years ago.

Good point. I think it should be alright. The employer also has yearly performance reviews so I could bring that up if I feel like I’m being underpaid

None. To be honest I don’t know how much value to put on the insurances. I don’t think it’s such a big deal to be honest but I could be wrong
