The problem here is he DOES own the other car.
The reason they do this is so you don't buy a fiesta then use the insurance to then drive a ferrari that you also own.
It is a complete MYTH that the other car needs to be insured(on it's own policy), it does not at all, so long as legal(mot/tax etc).
If driven uninsured and there was an accident the "last man standing" rule applies with regard to any claim.

100% right
if the fiesta is not in his name hes fine, if its is hes shafted
