    That article says 'typically', so there's no hard and fast 'rule' and certainly nothing in law.
    Accommodation finance is not available in the UK - so technically an application would need to be fraudulent - and fraud is against the law.

    The borrower must be the registered owner and the main driver of the car.
    For many lenders yes but not all. Flexibility is also greater between spouses/partners than between parents/children other random pairings of people. 

    There is no registered owner, there is a registered keeper and under PCP/HP the finance company is the owner, registered or not, until the debt is repaid.
