As the zed's still bust I've bought a second car as a spare. Got an Astra 2.0 sport for £850.

 

The zed is on my own personal insurance. If I register the astra in my company's name, can I drive it third party on my existing insurance? I am allowed to drive cars not owned by myself. Or does the astra have to be insured separately?

 

Somebody told me my third party cover for other people's cars only applies if the other car has its own insurance policy in place.

yep, you got to get a seperate insurance policy, some will mirror your existing no claims too.

Yes if you register the car in someone elses name you can drive it third party, but it wont be covered for fire or theft. The car doesnt have to be insured by anybody, but there's a debatable point of leaving an uninsured car on a public highway if you park it somewhere and you're not in it. You're ok to drive it though.

Do you know any that will mirror my existing no claims?

endsleigh do it for me.
