Hi, I have purchased a Belgium registered Range Rover in the UK, I’ve had it MOT in the uk , but I need to find out how to get
Insurance to cover me to drive it to Spain and then get it registered in Spain, also how long does it normally take to register a car in Spain and get a Spanish plates?

Registering a car in Spain is easy if you have a COC from the manufacturer. Otherwise it can not only take a lot of time but also a lot of money. Also, there is an environment tax (0 to 13%) depending on Co2 output. .

Hi yes I have the certificate of conformity for the vehicle, I will be in hondon so any idea how long to get Spanish registered and where?,
I still need a way to get insurance to drive it out to Spain.
Check the legality of driving a foreign registered car in the UK on a UK licence.
Driving it in UK is only a potential problem if you are UK resident, which driving licence you hold is irrelvent.
Many Spanish insurers will cover you to bring a car down and give you time to reregister it.

try Britania Legals in Pinar de Camporvede. We had insurance with them on our British car while we went through then process of changing to a spanish plate.

Since I have been driving cars in Spain I have always used Abbeygate. http://www.abbeygateinsure.com
Not overpriced and you do it in English.
