Re: car in spain
2nd hand cars certainly do seem expensive where I've been looking.
Example:
Fiesta
10 years old (2004 plate)
57k
cost - 4,495
Brand new Fiesta = 8,495

Buy one in Uk for £300 and chance it, ive seen a Peugeot 205 in Almoradi, not even GTI, for 750€ I doubt you would find many 205's left in the UK!

Re: car in spain
Good question.
I am still not 100% sure if a non resident is allowed to own and drive a Spanish car - although many do, myself included.
It's a subject that's cropped up from time to time on this Forum - often related to being on the Padron (or not).
Hopefully we will get a definitive answer.

Re: car in spain
My advice would be to go to the public auctions of repossessed cars in Spain, there are bargains to be had. You wont get the warranty that you would with a car showroom but if you use your noggin whilst looking at these cars you can get a good idea of their condition.

Re: car in spain
So where are these auctions - I thought they were all "closed shops" trade only
