Ok, I'm thinking there must be a cheaper way of getting cover for this.
At the moment, we have and need 2 cars. 1 family car and 1 v small car. The family car is in my name, fully comp. The small car is owned by DH and he has his own fully comp policy on it where I'm a named driver but I mainly use both of them!
I work part time and use the small car to get to work but use the family car when I'm off with the kids and weekends etc. DH only uses the family car to drop kids to school when I'm already gone to work.
DH commutes to work by public transport.
Now, we had looked last year and having me fully comp on my car and then thought I could drive the small car and be covered for 3rd party f& t on my policy, with dh named driver on family car but insurance co said no, owner needs to have a main policy on the car, so now we have 2 policies going!!
I'd love to just have 1 car but it's not possible for getting the kids to school in time for dh to get to work in time also!
What is the law on this and can anyone suggest the most cost effective solution? Thanks
