Car registration and insurance be under different names?

Question

i have just purchased a car (not financing) and i was wanting to put my name down for rego and have someone else stand for insurance is that possible?

Answer 1

Yes, but the registered owner may need to be on the insurance policy as a listed driver. That is how my husband and mother have it set up right now.  He owns the car but is listed on her policy.

Answer 2

no the reg name would be of owner and the insurance on car name

Answer 4

It depends on your state.  

Answer 5

I believe what you mean is cars log book is in your name but car will be insured in someone else's name with you as a named driver on their policy.

Shouldn't be too much of a problem but the insurance will be a bit higher due to the car not being in the log book keepers name. You as a named driver would probably only be covered for "Third Party" insurance cover.
