TP cover on cars not under your name

[Si Griffiths]

Seeing as i cant seem to get a job newhere it looks like i wont b getting a 16v this year so i want to get an insurance policy on my 1.2 which allows me to have 3rd party cover on any other car not registered in my name. Does anyone know how i could get a policy like this? Ive heard they exist, or am i talking out my ass?

You can yea.. normally when yer fuklly comp, you can do this.. have to check the policy tho!

Oh, and the other car has to be insured in some way.. you cant just jump in any car and drive it - it has to have its own insurance.

oh right...i thought the whole idea of me having 3rd party on any other car was that i would be insuring it with my policy

oh well seeing as the car i planned on driving isnt insured it looks like ill have to count on winning the lottery!

I always wondered about that - I dont see why *it* has to be insured if you are? *Youre* the person they claim off of, not the car! If its only a sh!tter, then I would have thought it was fine to be insured on one car and drive the rubbish one under the insurance. ?

Mat is right. Check it with the insurance company and you will see its correct. OR we would be insuring minis and driving V8s!

loads of websites say completely different things

like this one says u can with the owners permission, but youre only covered 3rd party. Doesnt mention anything about it having to be insured by someone else :S

I think a phone call to an insurance company will sort this out!
