I'm going to be in Spain for a year - academic year, teaching. I was thinking of taking my car, but I have heard I would have to import it and that this is complicated. Is this right?

It's complicated and expensive. Don't bother. You're allowed to have a UK car here for six months of the year, and you're not likely to get caught after this time.

Can't agree. It would cost a lot if you got caught, and I expect you're thinking of rounding off the year by touring Spain. There's a post here: http://www.costablancaexpats.net/pats/carimport.txt [23] on how to import a car without paying tax.

It's still expensive, Dan, nearly 600 euros, and Pijee would have to change the plates back in England again. Dunno if that involves re-registration here, maybe not.

Yeah, well, maybe she should buy a banger over there, instead.

Hello from Spain, I've never ever heard about these limitations. I'm to ask tomorrow at the public department in charge of controlling traffic and so I tell you.

Hello again from Spain, Pijee; I?ve just asked at the public department in charge of controlling traffic and they tell me you do NOT need any licence nor permission, and you do NOT have any limitation for driving car for ONE year.
If you have any other doubt you can tell me and I ask again. See you!.
