Importing a truck from the EU

Hi, any experience of importing a truck from the mainland - Poland?
It will be left hand drive so are there any restrictions on registering left hand drive commercial vehicles? the Revenue website and the RSA don't provide any info.

THanks in advance.

Pretty straight forward. From what I remember.

Import the truck
Get it weighed
VRT it
Get tacho sealed and calibration cert
Get speed limiter sealed and calibration cert
DOE the truck

There are a few LHD trucks on the road here so can't see it being a problem, commercial insurance might be though..
