Just insured UK car with Abbeygate, when they asked if i had a quote from any other company I said yes and they dropped their price from 442 Euro to 360 Euro.

Also just to confirm, they are a UK company and the same day the car was registered as insured on th Uk Gov website

Make sure the car is taken out of Spain after 183 days as will not be legal after that
