may be a daft question

is there a minimum age to be the registered keeper of a vehicle? my brother wants to keep my 3 door shell and 2.0 8v engine from the vr6 cab swap and clean it up/mod it over the next 3 years. hes 13 and wishes to send the logbook off in his name. im quite looking forward to being able to work with him as we dont really do much together, hes 13 im 22, so hes not quite allowed down the pub yet, although he could pass for one of my elders, lol. and the cars looking well already, good colour, 2.0l engine, coilovers, few bits of smoothing. it has potential.

just wondered if he can put it in his name, obviously ill keep it on sorn and such for him so he doesnt get any fines (cos hes a forgetfull little git), but think it may play well with insurance companies if he says hes owned the car for 3 years, just after hes passed his test, lol.

dunno about favourtism from insurance companies but I dont think there is a minimum age that you can have a car registered to you

I had a motorbike registered to me when I was 1314, so I don;t see why it would be a problem.

the insurance question is how long have you had a license so no benefit there but dont think theres a problem with ownership at all

registered keeper of a vehicle can be anyone!!!! even your day old child! make sure he does a SORN though!! he should have a stunning motor when he can drive it!

yup thats the plan, fot him to have a sorted car when he passes. although at 17 with a 2.0l 8v golf he may need some help with the insurance, lol.
