Best bet is to sell your car in the UK and buy one in Spain.

Hi , you only have 6 months to have your car in Spain then re-register or remove it out of Spain Police are clamping down on UK cars and will give a big fine if you break the law. Best this sell and purchase in Spain car are almost 1/3 more but you can still pick up a barging if you keep looking. 

And if you do purchase a 2nd hand Spanish make sure you have it checked all fines parking, speeding stay with the car until paid so good to check before purchase.
