Of course, that means you will pay the transfer fee, but from what I can make out it's only €43.40 anyway so worth it for the peace of mind. If you are selling to a dealer, they will no doubt tell you they will handle all the paperwork. It's easy to think that once you've got your cash you can forget about it, but I would still want to be sure that it's no longer in my name. If anyone has recent personal experience, perhaps they could add to this? _______________________ "For I am a bear of very little brain, and long words bother me" Winnie the Pooh Spam post?

22 Nov 2007 8:39 PM Karensun Villa I'm in Orihuela Costa I've made 1210 posts Send private message to Karensun	Hi Mutu, sorry to make a mess of your thread!! I would echo what Roberto has said. A friend of ours sold his car to a garage in part exchange and they sold it on to a Swedish guy. A few weeks later he recieved TEN speeding tickets from Sweden and then a couple of weeks later he recieved SIX more!!!! Then the chap returned the car to garage he'd purchased it from ( in Spain ) and said it was knackered!! Fortunately, our friend did not have to pay the fines and the garage took full responsibility for not registering the new owner...............so it would be best to ensure the ownership is changed at traffico yourself. _______________________ *' Do unto others as you would be done by'* Don't give me grief, I can find it by myself Spam post?
