Loose ur licence? SHIT! That's a bit harsh! Mine is 3 years old and clean though
Never driven unless it's been legal so that's why i'm asking.

if your dad or someone has there own policy and they are insured to drive 3rd party only on other cars then let them drive it. not worth the risk driving without insurance, infact its people like that who make my premium higher

If you drive it home and crash it into someone then the chances are they will kick you to within an inch of your life when they find out you have no insurance.
I for one will do feck all to stop them in this case.
Also, why bother driving all the way to Scotland for a standard Punto. Theres about a trillion of them in the Trader every single week.

Its an auction. The reserve is not met and it has 4 days to run
I fear you need to wise up a little before buying any kind of car!

If you're planning on driving it third party on your own policy the car must still be insured by someone.
There's no reason why it can't be insured for you to collect.

Your insurance would be invalid as well
