You can go anywhere in the EC area, I'm told that some of the more remote bits of Eastern Europe need people who can fettle modern small scale agricultural machinery, but those days are dying.
Just about everywhere else you need skills people want, and nobody wants utility vehicle mechanics, every army in the world produces loads of them...
India may be a place you can go to with your skills as Tata now own Land Rover and will almost certainly be flogging them there 'real soon now', except that India doesn't accept anyone but people who had at least one grandparent born there, or has a 'director' level job to go to, or is a trainer of some kind.
Mind you, about 30,000 to 40,000 Brits go there every winter and work illegally in the holiday business in Goa and Kerala and nobody bothers them much, well, except for the one or two a month who end up dead in drug deals gone bad...
