I bought a car from Benalcars in benalmadena and have not had the change of owner paperwork back. I was supposed to pick it up from him when it was ready. After 4 months I have not got it yet and now he seems to not be answering emails or calls. I am now getting worried, anyone got any ideas?

Judging by the fact that the whois info for benalcars.com reveals not a lot more than the name Marc Chaplin, a PO box number in Newton Abbott and a UK mobile phone number, that the website is not working correctly, and the general 'feel' of this, I would guess that benalcars probably is no more...

The whois info does give an email address which may still be functional, that being mchaplin@telefonica.net. You could give that a try in your attempts to contact Mr Chaplin but I doubt you will have a lot of success.

If the car is legal and you have the sales receipt you can get replacement documentation from dgt.es and the ITV documentation from any ITV station.

I would get a informe to see the current status of the car, it will show if they ever did transfer it. You can buy online here https://www.informesdetrafico.net//

Unfortunately the owner of the company apparently committed suicide. This was reported in the local press two weeks ago.

Omg that is a terrible shock , have we got the right person, Marc Chaplin? He was a young fit guy and very likeable. Could I ask for you to tell me which paper it was?

thank you for your help, I have just read the article and still cannot believe it, my car paperwork problems seem a very small problem to what has been happening here.
