We drove from UK in a Tenerife vehicle someone had driven back to the UK. Remember if you buy a LH drive with Spanish plates you will still be liable for import tax - unless you have owned the car for a minimum of 6 months (proof of ownership date required.). Customs here in Tenerife decide the value for tax purposes which may well be in excess of what you actually paid for it..... and just when you think you have 'got away with it' ..... up to three years later you get a bill.... and ten days to pay it. So buy and own more than 6 months before arriving here or advertise and see if anyone wants to swap vehicles either before you leave UK or after you arrive here. Worth a try.
