    I believe you - hundreds of motor insurers wouldn't :rolleyes:

    Only way would be a multicar policy. A normal insurance policy isn't going to work.

    What are the cars?

    hi all
    One of the car is a cavalier gls hatch and the other peugot 5dr 306 xld. We share to long car journeys to save on triedness. Otherwise we have greater 15years driving licence FULL and no claims and no lost of points.

    Thanks

    then your son needs to insure the cavalier and you need to insure the peugeot.

    I have the insurance covering both of us and my son has his own on his car but he is going to sell his car and then drive the cavalier. I need to know if i can add the second car to my existing insurance.

    No, you can't.

    Your son needs to insure the cavalier in his own name. End of.

    I suggested a multicar policy higher up

    (those years working for Admiral weren't wasted :rolleyes: :p)

    With the multicar policy everyone needs to live in the same house. if the OP's son doesn't, he won't be able to get a multicar policy.

    woohoo
    There is no mention that his son doesn't live at same address, maybe he does maybe he doesn't. But without knowing how can you say End of?
    That just sounds arrogant.
