Re: Puchase a new car from friend

I believe anyone could drive the car whether their name was on the title or not. They do need to be listed on the insurance coverage though so that is where I'd focus my attention. In my case I get the bill of sale on a vehicle in my name and then add my wife when I do the paperwork at DMV. I also list them as Mr Jones OR Mrs. Jones. this way if a vehicle needs sold it only requires one signature. If you list it as Mr Jones and Mrs Jones then BOTH MUST sign off the title before it can be sold. if you purchase it and place only your spouses name on the title then ONLY your spouse can sell it. Even if they are in BF Egypt and the car is here their signature is REQUIRED! Call your lcoal DMV and make sure what the rules are in your area. Good Luck!
