Okay, so I start my summer job in the next couple of weeks (unsure as to when because it depends when the peas are ready to be picked) and I'll need a car to commute.

As my funds stand at the moment I've got enough for insurance payments but not enough to buy a car and then insure it.

My Dad is on 4 day weeks at the minute so if I went on as a named driver I'd have the car over the weekends, which would be fine as I'll be splitting driving to work with a friend its shift work so the days we work change.

However, my Dad is looking at getting another car (next couple of weeks also) and then leaving me with his old one.

This leaves us unsure as what to do, if I get my own policy now as the main driver and him named then its all sorted for when he gets his new car. I presume this would mean he'd have to cancel his current policy and we'd have to sort my cover to start when his was cancelled? Or should I go on as a named driver for now and then sort it when he gets another car?
