Hi can anyone help, we have a spanish pick up and want to get an english caravan to tow we have been told we have to register  the pick up to english, has any one done this or would you no how easy it is or the cost. or would we be better of just buying an english car although we are travelling back and forth,

Not exactly sure what you mean, but if you intend buying a caravan in the UK, then tow it in Spain with a Spanish registered vehicle, and Spain is like France where caravan's have their own registration, then you could have big problems.

We have friends who moved from the UK, with their British caravan, to France where they then bought a French registered car.  They were soon stopped by the gendarmerie and the outcome was that the cheapest and almost only option was to put their caravan on a site and use it as a static.  The big problem was getting the caravan registered because it didn't have 'type approval' in France.
