No, to insure a car, you must show an "insurable interest" --- like an "owner." She could sell you the car for next to nothing so as to save on sales tax, then transfer it into your name if she trusts you. Another thing your sister should consider. As long as the car is titled in her nwme, she will be named on the lawsuite when you go out and mess up. If this car is *not* listed on *her* auto insurance, then she will have no insurance company to represent her in the lawsuie. The best way to handle this situation is to change your address to her address, and add you as a driver to her policy. Then, if you have a wreck, there is no confusion whos insurance will pay and who will have representation by the insurance company at the insuing trial.

Your sister you own a car you have never owned a car or had insurance before so the insurance is in your sisters name because it is cheaper are you covered in case you are involved in an accident?

Unless you live with your sister and are sharing the insurance policy with your sister's car as well, you are commiting insurance fraud. If yours is the only vehicle the policy needs to be written in your name and based on your underwriting info, address, insurance history, credit history, etc. Rewrite the policy immediately. There is no sense in chancing something this important, it's better to pay an accurate rate and have your insurance work, then pay for hope.

Is it possible to have a car in your name and have it under your parents insurance plan with you as a driver with out the car being owned by your parents?

If you are in the UK, then yes, this is fine. A few years ago this used to work out cheaper for getting an insurance quote, but the insurance companies have caught onto this, and the quote you get will be pretty much the same as if you were to insure in your own name. Anyone can own a car, and anyone can be insured on a car. In my opinion, it would be best to insure it in your own name, and start to build up a no-claims discount.

Can you have non owners insurance and insure another car that is not in your name but covers the owner?
