Useful Information: Vehicle Preparation and Spanish Rules

The first recommendation before travelling is to carry out a car inspection. Checking that all lights are working correctly, ensuring the tires (including the spare wheel) are in good condition, with adequate pressure, and ready for rain or snow, are some basic checks. Do not forget the oil level or the coolant. Ensuring these small elements function properly will provide safety for you, your passengers, and other drivers.

You may encounter some tolls during your journey, especially if using the AP-7.

Fuel

Except for LPG, which is not as easy to find as other fuels, especially in the city due to safety reasons, refuelling your petrol or diesel car should not be a problem. If you have a regular gas station, we recommend filling your tank there before leaving. This way, you won't waste time refuelling during the journey, and prices will likely be more affordable than if you decide to refuel on the motorway.
