Hi sea shells

we too had the same problem but chose the route to buy in UK on spanish plates after checking car out ( ie: fines and sumo etc) 

we then got insurance thru our spanish address and got a green card so we could drive it in the UK to have everything done to it (cambelt, bodywork, and full service)

then we got it shipped to spain by AVL logistics for £650 off peak which I worked out as a saving of 50% when you take into account the cost of fuel, cabin on the boat and the 1500 km on the car after the journey

the cost to buy in UK saved us around €2000 when you look at the cost of cars in Spain 

take off the £650 @ 1.20€ = €780 which crudely works out to a saving of €1220

true a bit of hassle to sort out but was worth it to us at the time. 

Any more info required just contact us thru the messages system

cheers and good luck

Can I ask are you a previous customer of Halifax that has since gone to lloyds and on to sabadell 

we to have had a nightmare with Zurich (through Halifax ) and am in the process of cancelling our policy as we got a quote at 66% cheaper than what they have just taken out of our account after numerous attempts to cancel

we have been told that staff that transferred from lloyds to sabadell have to prove their sales to keep their position at the cost to account holders

We used AVL Logistics, think they are based in Preston but cover the whole of the UK and go as far as Mazzaron fortnightly. 

In May 2013 they charged around £650 + vat to pick it up from our door on a Monday and deliver it to our apartment on the following Saturday. At that price it was around 50% cheaper than driving it over and we also packed it with various fittings for our apartment so saved on any extra shipping costs

cheers
