There are dealers in France and Spain but I don't know about Portugal.

The web site for the Spanish dealer is http://www.arielmotor.es/

Hi, Filipe

I've driven my car through Spain and thought that the car was not road legal to register in Spain.  I suggest you contact the Spanish dealer and see if he can help.  I'm always looking for new destinations to take the car, may pop down and give you a ride!  ;D  Good luck with getting the car legal in Portugal.

The cheapest model is the Honda powered 245 which starts from the high £20k.  If you are talking second hand a Rover powered Atom 120 will be between £14k - 20k I think there is a left hand drive one for sale at the moment.

I said HIGH £20ks for a 245, i.e. £27k++.  The Honda cars have re-worked suspension and generally more power, plus benefit from more development so will are better but not a lot
