Thanks, that's helpful. Its spanish LHD and I will be taking it to Spain. I am curious as to why it was seized by customs myself but I would speculate it was used for smuggling tobacco or something like that. Its usually the police that would check for insurance and ITV and not a customs issue. I think I'll use the DGT for the informe report and take it from there.

Thanks.

Hi, I have the opportunity to buy a Spanish registered car in the UK but it has no documents such as previous owners NIE or passport. It is now being sold by a trade garage who tell me it was seized by the UK border agency.

Other than the informe de carga which I could get done myself, what obstacles do I have to overcome and what other steps would I have to take to get the vehicle transferred into my name or any idea of the costs involved for replacement documents?

I would appreciate any constructive advice with solutions to any of this problem (not posts telling me to buy a different car!)

cheers
