Car Finance in Partners name but me as lead driver?

Hi There,

Hopefully you can help, I am trying to get a car on finance but failed the checks due to my credit rating. My Partner has offered to take the finance out for me and have the car in his name but I make the payments each month.

Looking to find out how this would work with the insurance, I need my name on as main driver but could I do this and have my partner as policy holder?

He has had a crash in the past year so would my insurance go up?

Thanks
