I've just bought a Freelander which I'm due to pick up next week. I already have a car which I'm looking to sell as soon as possible so would like to know the best option for insurance.

I'm not sure if I need temporary insurance on the Freelander or a complete brand new policy? I guess having a temporary policy means I can eventually change the vehicle on my existing policy without having to pay the penalty for an early cancellation.

My existing car is insured with Adrian Flux who I have rang but couldn't really get a helpful answer.

There are three options - a)a separate short term policy for the Freelander; b) a temporary additional vehicle (TAV) to your existing policy to add the Freelander, c) insure the Freelander for a year on a separate policy
You ought to get quotes for all three ( and for options a and c not just from Flux), and you also need to know from your existing insurer what will happen when you sell your current car and terminate your current policy - the return premium might be so low it might be cheaper to run the insurance on suitably amended to cover the Freelander.
