And if you're not sure, get a quote before you buy.

Hee hee. Ok. Who is the registered keeper? I'm a bit bemused why the OP didn't look in to doing this before ordering a car?

My LTD Company will be the Registered keeper. The car has been ordered (outright purchase) so I am looking at insurance options.

Does anybody have any recommendation as it will need to be my LTD Company who insures the car? We only need to ensure myself and my Wife

Also, any experiences on maintaining no-claims discount?

Thanks, Nick
