Hi All,

I recently moved to Madrid and was thinking of buying a car, however I will be going back to Ireland at some stage next year when my work here is finished so I would like to buy a RHD car so I can bring it back with me. Does anyone know if this is possible here, can garages order RHD cars?

Thanks,
Peter.

I am selling my Renault Scenic 2002 1.9 diesel DCI fidji 105 - RHD - manual 5spd. Its a 5 door with loads of space. The colour is red. If you would like pictures, please send me an email address. The car is UK registered and recently pass the MOT (valid until Oct 2009) I also have an autoprotect warranty that covers major mechanical/electrical faults.  The car is in very good condition with a new battery and new tyres.  It has just over 61000 miles.  Price 4500? (Open to a reasonable offer)

I am selling a Right Hand Drive Uk registered Citroen Picaso 2litre diesel, in a silver metalic blue. Good condition, full service history. 9 months mot. Photos on request. For a speedy sale only ?3900.00 o.n.o.

I think it’s not that easy to get one in Spain but there are definitely a few retailer who sell RHD cars. Maybe there’s a list on the internet. I have a friend from the UK, he drove a RHD car but I think he took the car with him when he had left to Spain.

At the moment the car market is much more competitive in the UK than Spain.  You could save thousands by buying in the UK and get a vastly better choice.  As for second-hand, they’ve been better value in the UK for years.  If I was you I’d fly to the UK or get one via an on-line dealer and drive it down to Madrid yourself.

Hi - I have sent PM to you - I am selling my car (irish reg and MOT til 2010) please rply if you are intrested depends wht you are looking for - iit may not be what you are looking for but may solve both our problems-  I am reluctant to sell but so much hassle for me to register here now.
