If you buy the car can it be registered in someone elses name?
It depends on the specific situation and the laws in the jurisdiction where you are located. In general, the person who purchases the car is the legal owner and the vehicle must be registered in their name. However, in some cases, it may be possible to register the car in someone else's name if the purchaser is not the primary driver or if there is a valid legal reason for doing so. It is always best to check with the local motor vehicle department to determine the specific requirements and procedures for registering a vehicle.
