Hello
I use Mapfre insurance for my cars. You can have a good price contracting using their web page: www.mapfre.es
If here you don’t find a good price, I recommend you a pair more:
www.genesis.es
www.verti.es

all of them are good companies with good insurances. Remember contract the international car assistant ( imagine you need assistance in Portugal).

Regards

A friend recently recommended Direct Line - or the Spanish Version Linea Direct https://www.lineadirecta.com/ZZRecur...-insurance.htm

English service and communications.

I haven't used them - but maybe a place to compare with others.

Hi, when we lived there we used Linea Direct for our car insurance & still use it for contents insurance for our apartment. Their prices are competitive & they speak English, regards Bryony.

When I brought my car over from England for 11 months I used Andrew Copeland. They covered for up to 12 months out of the UK. [email protected] andrewcopeland.co.uk

If you are going to Matriculate onto Spanish Plates during the year I would use Abbeygate. This is because they will transfer the credit from UK insurance onto a new Spanish policy.

For my car on UK plates, in Spain, I used Abbeygate. I was not very happy with them...

Hi lizzybuzzy, Try Jennifer Cunningham Insurance (Homepage - Jennifer Cunningham Insurances S.L.) Tel. 966 461 690, they are based in Javea, Spain, all the staff are English speakers, so you will have no communication problems. I insure two vehicles and also have a home insurance through them, all at very competitive prices IMO.
