Car License

Will you be able to register a car without license in the UK?
I am aware one person can own it and add as many named drivers on the insurance, but my friend wants to own the car but the only driver will be her boyfriend since she hasn't got provisional license.
If this is possible, who needs to hold the insurance certificate for road tax purpose, the owner or the driver?
It's a good question. Anybody can legally own a car, even a 5 year old. The owner is not always the registered keeper either. So your friend could be the legal owner and her partner could be the registered keeper. That could be tricky if they fell out though. The certificate of motor insurance has the car registration number on it, I think thats all that is required, so he should be able to tax her car with his insurance document providing that the reg.# is correct. As long as there IS a certificate to cover that car. All the insurance companies ask " are you the main driver" when buying insurance.
So the answer really is him
Get her to ring an insurance company (on an 0800 #) for a free quote on their desired car just to see what the score is and then get a quote for him
