1.Well i read hundreds of posts and im pretty confused about the whole thing. Now for the driving licence-i got pulled over about a month ago and the cop told me that i have to exchange my licence. now a few days earlier i went to ask in trafico and they told me that it is no longer nececarry. so i told him that and  i saw him getting slightly pissed off and then he said "well this must be new. it wasn't like that a while ago". the cop spent about 40 minutes around the car looking for a reason to write me a ticket and eventually found one and he did write me a ticket for 150€. Well nevermind that prick-i dont care about him.

2.I found this car for sale over here and it seems great. Now the car has been in spain for about 3 years and is on uk plates(obviously right steering wheel but that will never bother me wherever i live). It passed spanish ITV about 8 months ago so the question is-can I legally buy it and drive it as it is without changing the registration cause if i do have to change it then i suppose its not such a good deal. I know there are quite a few companies where i can get it insured without a problem so idk? Many people said i can, including this friend who used to work in the trafico not too long ago... but on the other hand-if i can why the hell is everyone changing their registrations?
