Buying a car in GA or surrounds
« on: January 24, 2015, 12:30. »
Good morning all, we are soon to be moving out to GA on a long term rent, and I need to buy a car out there, I will need a 7 seater to move all the grandkids etc around, and hope someone can give some tips and locations of reliable motors. we will be out at the end of Feb, so if anyone is selling a 7 seater around that time I'm your man.;)

There's one place to go if you want a fair deal from a good motor trader and that's Frank at FWR Cars
See http://www.fwreurocars.com
Linda Rowland in Santa Pola is the one to see for your insurance

Regards all

The bad news for you is that second hand cars in Spain maintain their value.  Great if you're selling, but not so good when you're buying.
Can't advise myself, but lots of ex-pats do o.k. buying l.h.d. in the U.K., & paying the tax etc. To import & register in Spain.

I have seen the prices and as you say they are expensive, I live close to a couple of LHD car dealers over here,their prices are similar, so no real drop in expense, I guess the only positive note is the strong £, and I don't want a car purchased over here getting impounded off the ferry!.

Mind you with the Euro now worth less than 75p, I can afford a better car.
