Default Register vehicle in Spain, resident in UK?

I wish to remain resident in UK then buy/register/insure a LHD vehicle in Spain.
Is this possible?
Must I change residence, officially?
Hopefully, this will enable 1 / 2 years travelling around Spain/Europe.

Hola

Do you have a residence in Spain (either owned or rented) ?

Why buy a Spanish car?

No residence in Spain.
Just like LHD vehicle to drive on the 'wrong' side of the road on the continent.

I always order home appliances from the US or Japan because I like the smell and sound of them sizzling when I plug them into European power sockets.

Vehicle registration and documents relate only to an address in Spain. No address, no registration.
