Actually you can only transfer registration to someone else. Legal
ownership is dependent on "normal" conditions. (whatever they are).

However, most people (and insurance companies) assume that if a car is
registered to you, then you own it.
The other thing is that it seems to be possible to change ownership
details within one month of an official change of ownership by just
phoning the licensing authority up & telling them there was a mistake.
I changed 2 vehicles recently from single to joint "ownership" without
having to supply more than very basic information. The insurance
company then accepted that the cars are jointly owned and reduced the
premiums accordingly (as was my intention).
