In common with a lot of people, I’m finding car rental too dear. I’m looking for a cheap car to buy, and leave in Spain. I’ve sent messages to Spanish websites about cars I’m interested in, but never hear back from them. Can anyone suggest who might help me?

I bought my car from Caroutlet es. A lady called Ria was extremely helpful. I bought the car sight unseen, which I would never do as a rule but I was in the U.K. at the time. I was not disappointed. She made the whole transaction simple also getting me insured at a competitive rate. They delivered the car to me at Alicante airport when my flight arrived. I now keep the car parked close to Alicante airport as it is open all year round. The 2 hour drive to Mojacar is a nuisance but you get used to it. Good luck.

We also bought from caroutlet.es in Ondara near Denia. They have a comprehensive website. We were looking for a good quality automatic saloon.

They took care of everything and delivered to our home in Mojácar. 

For the purchase of a small automatic run around we went to Costa Coches in Mojácar playa. The car is ex rental, no problems with it or the service from Costa Coches.

Try Costa coches in Mojacar - They will bring to the airport for you as well as selling cars - I think I pay 420 euro  year for parking - I  sold my last car and bought a new one from the ford dealer lolli at Caves.  Most 2nd hand cars I looked at  had shed loads of miles on the clock and they really hold their money  - .Get a spanish plate one - My recent visits the police seem to have quite an interest in English cars I think its the Spanish licence thing and brits being reticent to change

 Good luck.
