do you currently have car insurance?
if so phone your broker and ask them to extend your cover to another vehicle for a couple of days, all they require is the registration...sometimes depending on which broker you use, they dont charge...i have done this quite a few times, when my vehicle has been in for repair and i get a hire car

If you can manage for 3 days then Vauxhall are giving free car hire for three days!

No.
I am a named driver on my wifes policy. :roll:
I once bought a new car and needed the insurance to overlap on my old car whilst it sat at my address waiting for the new owner to pick it up.
I asked my insurance co if they could give me a few days insurance on it and they refused.
So...........
I started a new policy, had the insurance for a few days then cancelled it and didn't lose any money as they give you a certain period to cancel. So a few days insurance for free! Obviously if I'd had to claim during that period then I would have lost a full years premium money but thats nothing compared to losing a £12k car so I'd glady have paid £200 or whatever for the premium.
Similar thing happened a few years later when I was with a different company and they basically extended the policy on it by 30 days to cover the overlap for £50 or something.

I had 3 days on my Mrs' 182 for about £25 over the bank hol weekend. Fortunatley i can't tell you what they are like if you need to claim, but the broker is Norwich Union.
Who owns the car? Easiest to ask the owner to add you to the policy for 4 days. £10-20.
