Can a car have two owners?
Can two persons own a car, such as husband and wife, in the same way they can for a house?

You can have more than one owner of a car - ownership is determined by how the vehicle was paid for and the name or names on any paperwork relating to the purchase such as a receipt. This is distinct from the registered keeper, which is the name on the V5/C registration document and can only be completed with one name.
