I'm thinking of buying a small runabout (corsa/Astra type) for when we're in Spain and as I've no experience of insurance, licensing costs etc wondered  if anybody can give me any advice or information on these costs, any help is greatly appreciated

Hi

Insurance will cost from 350€ to 450€ fully comp approx, but this includes your break down cover which you need here in Spain, you are not allowed to tow cars.

I can recommend www.iberianinsuranceservicesesp.com

I live in the Alicante region and have a Ford Focus, my Suma (tax) is 50€ for the year and my ITV is 37€.

Any car under 10 years old needs an ITV every other year and after 10 years it is every year.

Hope this helps.

For insurance you can't beat Linear Directa especially if you put your house insurance with them as well.
