You can ignore 2 (a) of these regs with regards to other supervisors.

I can't see it being a MUST - what about insurance?

I won't do it, but some of our observers will demonstrate in an associate's car. Personally, as I have access to auto & manual, i will wait until the end of the drive and then demonstrate in my own vehicle.
I think (but may be wrong) that the IAM Surety scheme gives an extension for observers to drives associates vehicles.
IAM Scheme: Use of vehicle
Use is construded to include IAM approved 'Observers' conducting demonstration drives in their own vehicle.
We confirm that the receipt of a mileage or petrol allowance in relation to voluntary or charity work is acceptable under this Policy and does not constitute Use for hire and Reward.
