Hugo,
You didn't say how the reprojection to WGS84 was done but you need to 
take into account the datum change.

Here is a proj4 string that permits to recover exactly the same results 
as provided by the IgeoE coordinate conversions page.

+proj=tmerc +lat_0=39.66666666666666 +lon_0=-8.131906111111111 +k=1.0 
+x_0=200000 +y_0=300000 +ellps=intl 
+towgs84=-302.581,-61.360,103.047,0,0,0,0
