One of the assumptions often stated is that the policyholder is also the registered keeper. Try getting a quote with your husband's insurer and read all the statements carefully, see what it says? I have a policy on my friends car, they are the registered keeper and owner. I had no problems taking out the policy, when asked if I was the owner/keeper I simply said no and that was absolutely fine. Policy is fully comp, for me only.

I think so long as you tell them you can get insured for anything . even for a sputnick landing on your lawn . Just make sure you tell them the truth especially about young drivers and what its used for. Lots of people do airport runs and risk it okay until you have an accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Yes, well it'd be silly not to, especially if it's not your own vehicle. but I had no problem getting an insurance policy for a car I did not own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Cyclone's advice the only one you are recommending the op to take? there are many other post that recommend her to take the free 30 minute advice from a solicitor, in my opinion that is the best advice by far. dont you agree?

Can't hurt for sure, but they're likely to ask if she has any proof that it was a gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many online policies don't ask, they state it in assumptions, so it can be overlooked by mistake if care is not taken. I'm not saying it can't be insured that way, just that it's easier to be inadvertently uninsured by not reading the assumptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
