Ford Fair 2017 at Silverstone certainly didn’t disappoint. We had an incredible day sponsoring the Fast Ford Magazine paddock. We were even able to bring along many of our own customer’s cars to display.

A few of our team went along on the day; Paul, Alex, and Aimee. Shall we look at some of the pictures they took of the day? As well as their experiences? Yes, we shall…

There were literally thousands of Ford cars there on the day. There was everything from a Ford Fiesta to a Ford Mustang. Other models included: Ford Focus RS, Fiesta ST, Escort Mk1, RS Cosworth, and even the new Ford GT (which was sold out before production even commenced). Of course, there were many more cars there too but there’s literally too many to list.

What happened on the day?

As mentioned previously, some of our team went along on the day. Here’s what they all have to say about each of their experiences…

Alex, Sales Manager:

“It was great to get to meet a lot of our customers and see their cars in person. It’s one thing to talk to customers on the phone regarding their pride and joy, it’s another thing to see it in real life and appreciate all the mods.

Despite it being a single manufacturer event, the size of the event was astounding and the variety of cars was fascinating. Anything from Pumas to Mustangs and Cortinas to GT’s.

Overall, I thought Ford Fair 2017 was a great day out. It’s fun for all to enjoy: families, couples, even people who want to go alone and just admire all the cars out there. From classics to modern day models, the show had everything to offer and more.”

Aimee, Sales Adviser:

“Ford Fair 2017 was amazing for many reasons… I went out on track in one of our customer cars: John’s Ford Focus RS. He was also out with our customer, James Allen, in his Time attack Focus RS. I absolutely loved it, the car handled so well around corners and was easily managing over 100mph down the straights.

Also, I spoke with the Manager of Ford who turned on the new Ford GT (which was already sold out before production) and put it into race mode so we could see it drop. This experience was utterly incredible.

In addition, I got the chance to meet with a lot of like-minded individuals who all have an interest in Fords. It was great to see so many people have an appreciation for the same thing, and great to meet with lots of our fellow customers.”

Paul, Marketing Manager:

“Safely Insured sponsored the Fast Ford Magazine paddock, which included a collection of Fast Ford reviewed cars from throughout the past year, as well as 24 Safely Insured customer cars. Fast Ford ran a competition for ‘Best Car Award’ in several categories. The winner was voted for by the public at Ford Fair. I was on hand to give out the trophies for the winners – something I’d never done before and thoroughly enjoyed.

Safely Insured customers enjoyed a glorious day, full of sunshine and Fords everywhere. Our customer cars offered a full collection of modified cars and attracted a lot of attention.”

All in all, everyone had an amazing day out at Silverstone. Thanks to everyone who came to see us, and to those of you who featured your cars – we hope you remembered to get your goodie bags from the main area!
