Now we are out of the EU I'm not quite understanding if we can still draw our British state pension if we decide to stay in Spain full time or do we have to spend a certain amount of time in Spain then come back to UK to still draw the pension. also do we have to have a certain amount of money in the bank ?

An expensive way to withdraw cash as you will get hammered on draconian exchange rates, we use Currency Direct as our FX account and you get far better exchange than banks. 

Do not agree with you on €6000 to open bank account in Spain, we use Sabadell and our criteria is we must deposit €2000 to each account each month. It may be more expendive to open an account if  one is not Resedencia status.

I opened a sabadell account with €100 last week. As a non residencia. But had to have a rental contract or property deeds
