They do so with relative ease so, other than toll booths and barriers when on your own, do not be discouraged from taking your RHD car to Spain.

Because they haven`t got a choice. They`re invariably on holiday or driving a truck and I´m not how you would know how at ease they are, especially if towing a caravan.

I used to drive a RHD truck to the Middle East for many years and always found overtaking a very dangerous manoeuvre and saw many accidents, some fatal. In the end I bought a LHD truck and the difference was amazing and much, much safer.

If you intend to live in Spain, buy a vehicle that´s best suited for the roads. The reasons for it far outweigh the reasons against it, and one of them is safety.

No problem whatsoever....I have recently had mine converted to Spanish plates with all the necessary adjustments
I think it's a myth that it makes driving difficult. (Spanish drivers make driving difficult!!!)
PM me if I can help at all

I have had my mx5 in Spain for the last 7 years had no problems whatsoever. Go for it!

When we moved to Spain eighteen years ago we drove down in our Peugeot 405 GTX. I`m used to driving RHD in Europe so it was not a problem. Five years later, it was stolen and I then bought a new LHD Ford. My life in Spain then got that little bit easier.
