Need to RE register my UK Audi TT 2004 V6 model in Cartegena/Alicante area, I exported it last August and still have my UK DOCS and had been locked in garage as I have been working away.... how much and how quick will it be to register in Spain as my Spanish partner recons it could be months and about €1000 and endless visits to the authorities !! Any body help?

Also if you need a great Rockabilly band for an event give Murcia or Alicante area me a shout ...
My website for "El Diablo Deuces

I am good friends with The Red Tops and similar style of music 50's revamps rock n roll and some of my own songs...

hj rockabilly,well yes its expewnsive and a pain in the arse  a couple of years back i fancied a convertable ,couldnt get what i wanted here  so bought a renault megane convertable from the uk ok it was cheap well cheap to here, it then cost me 6oo pounds to have it transported over ,got in touch with a local gestoria  lawyer yto do the paperwork ,a nightmare everyday they wanted something new about the car,finally got my reg spanish and a bill for a grand in euros when i weighed it up =rhdrive change over i finished up selling it at a loss ,my own personal opinion would be to sell your car in the uk and wait till you get over here, edd

Thanks for advice ...

Hi guys! I'm Davide, 22, born in Rome. I graduated in Languages two months ago, then I gained an Erasmus Traineeship scholarship to work abroad for 4 months... and here I am in Los Cristianos, Tenerife!    I chose this place because of the weather and because I found an opportunity here: I'm a receptionist in the leading private language academy in the Canary Islands. Being a touristic location, I find very difficult make new friends, especially because I'm not a disco-addicted. I like going to discos, but I prefer a deeper human interaction than the one offered by a each-saturday-disco one, I love chatting in a pub drinking some fresh beer, or walking or anything else in which you can tell your story and enrich yourself hearing the ones of your new friends    I'm gonna stay here up to the end of August, so... don't hesitate to write me! I'm fluent in English and Spanish, and of course Italian. I wanna tell the truth, I prefer young people like me, because I'm working with many "seniors" and it's already enough for me 

Soooo, see you soon! Bye!

Hi everyone, my name is Sharon, I'm a 51 year young widow, with one daughter left to rear she is almost 13. I have always wanted to wake up to the sun each morning, unlike the rain here in Ireland. I have a chance to start spending time there so have booked return flights to Malaga for daughter and I from 23 July to 12 August as I want to view some places there. I need to rent a place while I'm there also. Any help would be appreciated. Anyone know anyone who lives in the mobile home parks there. What are pros and cons. I have to keep working here in Ireland financially,  for another few years as I don't think jobs are easy come by in Spain.

hi
i just joined ...not sure how this web site works

I have spent the past 15 years in Kwa Zulu Natal, South Africa and have loved it, the climate, the people - everything.  Life is not so good these days and we are thinking of moving on.  We could not begin to cope with the weather in UK, we have considered Central America, maybe Belize but  sounds a bit like "from frying pan to fire".  Considering Rural Spain.  We enjoy a rural, laid back life growing some of our food and keeping a few hens.  Probably providing our own electricity. Quite social people with minimal knowledge of Spanish but prepared to learn.  I would appreciate any comments or views.

Hola I'm a 24 year old Painter & Decorator from England looking to Live my Dream in beautiful spain. Slowly learning the Language & working hard to finance my move.

I have been visiting Andaluciia, regularly for over ten years,,and love exploring, not only the wonderful cities, ( and amazing backstreets) , but villages too.
Will be visiting the Manilva, Gaucin, Ronda area this time, and hoping to gather insights and information.
I love to learn about the culture and the people, Can't wait!

Hi, I have just joined the site, and am delighted to find your post.
I have visited the area where you live several times and love it. My husband and I will be visiting at the beginning of August this year, and hope to explore the area more.
Do you have any ideas, hints or tips to help?

Travelling is education, I love to be in different cultures and meet people. I am very friendly and value friendship so much.
I would be happy to teach my new friends English language Free, or just involve in conversation to improve the language.  I love outdoor activities and love to eat outside and have nice and peaceful evenings.

Hey everyone! I've been living here in Galicia for 20 months now, my Spanish is still very limited so I'm feeling somewhat out of the loop. Need to get more involved
