EU company buying car from a local car agents? Need advice:)

Hello everyone!

New here, yet hoping to grab one or two of your experiences on that field. :P

The story a bit complicated though interesting: an EU company (not spanish and UK) needs a business car in the Andalucia Spain. As long as non of us speaks spanish a car buying is promising to be quite an adventure. To test we tried only one brand and 70! car dealer e-mail contacts all over the Spain, got three (3) replies, and total silence after this.

Another try was made to several online car dealers. This time in spanish. Most of them reply, though after getting details (EU company, non spanish bank wire transfer and etc), never came back. Any try to contact them again leads to the total silence.

Meaning there are several issues blocking us and which we may not know about. Questions is, does anybody of you managed to buy a car as a foreign company here in Spain?

Okay. answering to myself, yet that should be interesting to others as well.

According to DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) reply we have to be a spanish company as long as Spanish VAT ID number is required in order to buy a vehicle.
