Use Old V5 to Insure?
Discussion
Hi,
My cousin bought a car off me and then proceeded to insure it, but on the policy he said it was registered under his name he does have the intention to transferring it into his name but has not yet. Now the insurers want the V5 but it is still under my name, can he send it to them with a receipt of purchase for now? Reason for this because they want it within 7 days and it will obviously take longer for the v5 to be transferred.

Ooops sorry about the title thought i had one. Mods if you could please fix it.
Yeah i know he should have transferred it already. The insurance are saying he needs to give them all these documents in 7 days if not the insurance will be cancelled. Do you think a new supplement slip will do for now?

Why do the insurers want this I wonder?My cousin bought a car off me and then proceeded to insure it, but on the policy he said it was registered under his name he does have the intention to transferring it into his name but has not yet.

I have never been asked in over 30 years of owning (mostly boring) cars and bikes?
[quote=Who me ?]750 -possibly because the car is not registered( on V5) to the proposer. I had this a problem a few years back . My daughter had acquired an old banger with a few months tax & mot on it, but it was registered in her name. Only way round problem was to change nameon V5.

Double post- if your daughter got a car and it was registered in her name, why did the V5 need to be changed to insure it? Her insurers would WANT her name on the V5 wouldn't they?

OP - why don't you tell us the full stories so we can advise with all of the context. This is a helpful forum with both lawyers and insurance experts who have helped, FOC many PHers with legal and insurance guidance.
You seen to be having some issues but only the full context will get you the right advice.

The previous two threads are a whole different matter to this. They were concerning myself whereas this is me selling a car to a relative and trying to help him
The v5 has been sent away but he has not received it back yet but the insurers want it within 7 days which i doubt will be long enough for it to arrive. Hopefully the insurers will understand this.
I myself found this strange of the insurers asking for the v5. Personally i think they have done checks and found the car to be not registered in his name yet..
