My Uncle has a house somewhere near Alicante and they used to take an old UK Mondeo down there in the spring and bring it back in the winter..
As far as I know, he now has a Spanish Zafira/Galaxy, something like that, which lives at a storage place near the airport and when they or anyone else goes there, the storage people collect them from the airport, take them to the storage place where the car is waiting all checked over, valeted and ready to go.
I have a friend who owns a property in Spain, and he has done all the maths, and said unless you are going out their for months or permanent, as a holiday let it's cheaper to rent a car..
Could possibly be tempted by the 595 Abarth version[why they called it a 595 I have no idea]bit of a pocket rocket those..
Yes Opti I remember the Mini Moke.Supposedly designed with sales to the British army in mind,but that idea failed and became most famous for its role in The Prisoner[an offshoot of Danger Man]with Patrick McGoohan.
basically its a ford KA and as such shares lots of components especially underneath/ mechanically so should be reliable enough for what it is . sister in law had one ( and a KA more recently and had no real issues other than a faulty throttle pedal) daughter has a KA at the moment and it seems to survive the abuse it gets !.
it also basically the same as a panda too in lots of respects .
not the most refined of cars in terms of comfort or tyre noise but fun enough to drive .
