We have been told that you need 7000 Euros per person in a Spanish Bank account for at least 3months . They were not interested in our income !

Hi Gordon,

I agree with Pete's suggestion and highly recommend that you read "Jim's Guides" on this forum, especially those in the section, "How Brexit will affect living in Spain":
:

Jim's guides - your complete guide to Spain

The biggest changes are likely to be:

- as a Non resident, you will be limited to spending a maximum of 90 days in a rolling 180 days period in Spain and other Schengen zone countries;

- should you decide to live in Spain permanently, after the Brexit trasition period to 31 December 2020, you will be subject to the much stricter application requirements of being a Third Country National, rather than an EU citizen.

Hopefully, the EU will ratify the Withdrawal Agreement today and then both the www.gov.uk. website and Spain's La Moncloa website will be updated with more definitive information.

Kind regards,

Kim
