Test Drive Insurance

I'm selling my car privately. The purchaser will want a test drive. What do I need to do about insurance?

Answered by Honest John

Make sure that the potential purchaser is allowed by his policy to drive other insured vehicles not owned by him on a 3rd party basis. Or buy temporary insurance. See:
