Insuring a car when not the registered keeper
Discussion
Does anyoneo know if you can insure a car if you are NOT the registered keeper?
I currently share a car with the missus (policy in her name, I am a named driver), and I also have a policy in my name for a rarely used garage queen. If we buy the missus a shopping car, I would need to insure the shared car in my name short term (would transfer the garage queen policy)before I sell it and buy something a bit more "spirited" to drive.

Incase anyone gets a similar requirement (or finds this via the search facility) my solution was:
I kept my policy running as is, and we got a third policy on the car we want to sell in my girlfriend's name (me as named driver). We got a discount based on her no claims period (which is in use on her other policy) and took it out on a monthly payment plan (worked out equivalent of about £350 per annum).
I can then cancel the above when ready and I have not had to add another owner to the log book.
