Best Cars to Insure

Do I need to have my driving license to insure a car?

I've just passed my test and in their wisdom the dvla have sent it to my old address, It will take 10 days for an investigation so they can find out why they ignored the change of address form and get my new license out. I'm getting my car on Sunday, But can I insure it without my license present ???

  1. Yes, the insurance company will just ask how long you have held a licence - you don't need to give any info from it.
  2. yeah because the insures check with th DVLA directly to check youv'e got a licence
  3. i was asked to show mine the first time i insured with my company. But if you are already insured with them, they will only ask for info about your new car.
  4. Hell yeah, so long as you have money. All my insurer asked for was the car registration number and my credit card number...
  5. yes you can insure it , as you can insure anything , so long as you do not violate the terms and conditions of the insurance which will render it invalid . You have passed your test so whats the problem . If in 10 years you was to move house and send in your licence for an updated address , you wont have a licence then either.Same situation so do it.
  6. Yes, you should be able to insure your car. The insurance companies usually have a link to DMV and they will be able to check that you actually do have a driver's license.
  7. Yes - you don't even need a full licence to insure a car - even a provisional will do.
  8. Yes,the insurance check everything on the database now,good luck
  9. Yes you can get insurance without license, but your pricing may be a lot higher.
  10. Hi ,all you need is log book, certificate of insurance ,m.o.t.,payment , and application form.John Boy.
  11. You don't need to have your driving licence to insure a car as your details are held on DVLA computer that you have passed and holda valid driving licence.
  12. Nope you do not need to produce a licence to insure a car and do not let them tell you otherwise Do it all on line and you won't even have to talk to anyone
  13. yes but tell the insurance company in case they want a copy of it ,so they know why you have not got it to hand
