Yes as i said i did pay for it so it is my van as you said, although i am not the main driver i use it from thursday - saturday night/sunday morning and my step dad drives it during the week to work etc.
I am insured on the cover and i am not bending the rules as the van is registered is in his name, he is the main driver and i am a named driver.
that is right is it not?
there is no record to say that the van is mine surely if the registered keeper is in his name it technically belongs to him whilst registered?

some people seem very touchy on here, i am not like the "stereotype" 18 year old that dashes around in a corsa/106/saxo thinking they are a ferrari.
i use the van for work purposes, to transport my disco gear from A to B - usually around 25 miles a week if, not to race and throw around.


anyway off topic.... get a transit connect - it's a nice van to drive.
