You will get very poor value for it - ask yourself why would anyone living in Spain want a rhd car with all the problems of keeping road tax and MoT up to date, insurance problems and restricted time for it to be on the road? The option is to reckon on rematriculating it, costs depending on what the car is.

I was offered more for my uk registered car in Spain than I bought it for in the uk

It’s not a problem

You must have got a good deal, buying cheap and selling higher is an ideal, but rare.

From a dealer??

I'm not bringing my existing car it's leased through work so it's going back I was just going to buy something cheap to get me to Spainwith my dogs  then get something better in Spain that was the reason I've asked the question .

You could consider having the car you take over ... transferred on to Spanish plates...costs approximately €1,000.

That depends very much on what the car is. On some models the headlights would cost at least that much. I've never understood why anyone would want to put Spanish plates on a RHD car. Pay all that money and you still have a RHD car in a LHD country, and what happens when you want to sell it? Doesn't make sense.

On the Costa Calida pages someone has posted about buying a Spanish registered car in Ireland.....an idea?

Just google LHD cars for sale and you'll find dealers specialising in them. I have seen several on Spanish plates, and dealers usually offer to replate the ones that come in from Eastern Europe. Bargains to be had if you're looking for that sort of thing. It makes no financial sense to replate a RHD car.
