My fiance is Australian (I’m a Brit). She is looking for car insurance but has been told by an insurance company that deals with ex-pats that they can’t insure her because they only deal with Brits. Anyone know of any insurance companies in Spain that speak English that might be able to help her?

I forwarded this to someone who deals with car insurance in Spain. Hopefully he will have some info for you.

Hi Warren,

Msc Insure should be able to provide insurance for your fiance.  Unlike the UK the insurance policy covers the car, therefor anyone with a Full Driving license over the age of 30 - 35 (depending on the insurer) with the owners permission is insured to drive the car.

I have sent you a PM regarding our details, so we can discuss the details further.

Look forward to speaking with you/your fiance.

Regards
Matt
