Yes you can drive with a UK licence how would people be able to hire Spanish cars otherwise.

Thanks for your reply .

As the car is my brother in law who lives in Spain and before UK came out of the eu ,I drove the car when I was in Spain and insured on his policy,

Would this still be the same as the UK are out of the eu.

Kind regards anthony

As a tourist, your licence is valid.  As long as his insurance doesn’t require named drivers, you’ll be fine; e.g. mine covers the car for any driver over the age of 23.  That’s pretty standard so I guess you’d be ok

To be sure when we let a friend drive ours we gave them a letter to say they had our permission.
