Hi, bought a car last year from specialist vehicles group. This is near Murcia airport though so not sure how close to you. Excellent service. Good range of cars. We did look at Spanish garages, but they only let you test drive once you are practically handing the cash over.i wanted to test drive first. It are run by a couple of British guys. Very helpful. The only thing is I had a shock of cost of second hand cars. I bought a 15 year old golf with light years not miles on the clock. But drives brilliantly and there is not a single rattle! They have a website. Just type specialist vehicles group into google. Good luck.

Forgot to say also means if anyone wants to borrow the apartment they can drive the car, as insurance is for car and not the owner. We also leave a satnav in the car for good places we have visited e.g. Markets, beaches, restaurants etc. for guests.

After looking at how much it cost to hire a car each time we were in Spain , and taking into account cost of driving down from uk for one holiday, we worked out if we bought a cheap car (15 year old golf way better than the panda we always ended up with, not a single rattle and drives brilliantly!) it was much cheaper to buy a car in the long run. Apartment has covered parking so leave it at the apartment and get a taxi to apartment. Even with taxi, insurance, itv after 2 years we will break even and after that running costs less than hiring each time. I know we take the risk that the car could pack up, but we. Thought it was worth the risk. I know this is not ideal for everyone, but others have said they have done this and are glad that they have.
