To get an NIE number you’ll need to have a reason for doing so, like major financial outlay such as house or car.

If you do need one for a purchase, unless you are conversant with Spanish bureaucracy, you are better off getting a gestor to assist

No, you won’t get a NIE on that basis - you have to demonstrate that you actually *need* a number.  On application you’d be asked to provide proof of purchase of a house or pre-sales invoice of a car or similar.  They have become very strict with issuance of NIE now I’m afraid.

You can of course try, and go to a Gestor to facilitate it but I’m 99% certain you’ll be refused on the reason you’ve outlined.
