Transfer Ownership to OH - yes or no?

    I am just about to change the car and we have decided that we are going to trade in my wife's car instead of mine. This means that both my current car and the one I buy will be in my name - I will take the new one and she will take my current car.

    I know it's fairly easy to transfer ownership, but my question is whether or not we need to, or should. Presumably this will add another 'owner' to that car (a point that I'm sure will be pointed out when we go to see that one)? From an insurance point of view, are there any problems with leaving that car in my name and having her as the primary driver (on her own insurance)? Or should we just transfer it over and have it done with?

    Thanks for advice,
    D

    Don't transfer it. Husband and wife can insure a car in either name.
