    Hi,

    does anyone have a motor trade policy / or personal car insurance that covers them in Spain, and I guess other EU countries (but just Spain for me).

    I am looking to spend some time in Spain and do some business there, but my motor trade insurance company company tell me I wont be insured over there.

    Anyone got any experience with this - what kind of insurance do I need and what companies offer it, either here or in Spain?

    AFAIK your standard motor insurance policy is valid anywhere in the EU. There are certain limitations though, 30 days per year abroad max, probably only gives third party cover. You can talk to your insurance co and pay a premium for a "Holiday" cover which will give fully comp for a given period. I have never heard of general trade insurance being valid abroad with the exception of vehicle recovery firms.
