I have no intention of driving it without insurance which was the reason I asked for guidance. I hope someone else can give me some positive advice? I had wondered if there as an actual transfer of ownership document we could obtain somehow before we attempted to make the rest of the arrangements. I would be able to get the previous owner to sign it before we leave UK?

Thanks for your efforts.

We have just purchased a second hand car in Uk which is registered in Spain. We want to take it over to leave at our Spanish holiday home. We have a copy of  the previous owner's passport, IVA , current road tax certificate and other  relevant documents in order to be able to do the transfer when we get to Spain.  We have done checks to know we have not made a 'dodgey' purhase.  The question is how can we drive it to our apartment without insurance? How can we get insurance when its in the name of the previous owner?  Is there a Transfer of Ownership form we can obtain somehow which we can accompany the documentation? What exactly do we need to make the transfer as effortless as possible.  We understand we need to obtain a Padron from the Town Hall in Spain and yes we do have out NIEE numbers. Can anyone help??

We purchased a plot of land in Buenas Noches Estepona 5 years ago.  We had the plans drawn and they went through the college of architecture.  When we applied for the licence to build we were informed that no licences were being issued as the urbanisation had 'problems' which needed to be sorted out.

Our solicitor wrote to the Town Hall and it was explained about the new Mayor at that time deciding to put a halt on works to urbanisations and gave us various reasons which I am sure many people reading this are familiar with. 

It has been quite difficult to get clear answers from the president of the urbanisation regarding what the situation is, and we have strongly relied on the minutes of their meetings and various brief conversations with them whenever we are over.  The latest information we have been given is that there  is a new Mayor and the project for the urbanisation has now been adopted by the Town Hall. Our understanding is that it will evetually re-urbanise. 

Can anyone throw any further light on this subject? We pay our community charge each year but unfortunately we never even receive a newsletter, which in some ways would make us feel that we were being kept informed.  We are not alone in this predicament.  I am aware that there are others as frustrated, however Im not sure they have been waiting for quite as long as we have.

By the way, I registered with EOS earlier this year but have only just discovered these amazing wide reaching discussion sites.  Brilliant!

I will ask my brother to check with Maria regarding your suggestion.  We don't want to do something that may be inappropriate.

I am waiting to receive contact details for Maria in order to forward the contract as indicated.

Yes I will post the outcome if and when we can.
