Rubbish. Just a new engine. And tyres. Maybe discs and pads too and the AC since it'll be hot there.

Judging by the quality of some brand's 'new' cars, he is probably better off sticking with his biggrin

Don't do it unless it's due. The car won't know it's in Southern Spain after all. If it's modern synthetic I would just leave it alone

Change the oil before departing.

Change it again at arrival.

Change again upon returning home.

Best to play safe.
