Safely Insured are proud to be heavily involved in creating specialists insurance schemes for car enthusiasts - that is because we are car enthusiasts ourselves. Below is a review of a Track Day attended by Safely Insured staff. Full article below.
Car insurance can be a nightmare. Particularly if you own a high-performance or modified car, or a Japanese import. Suddenly the ‘wonder’ of online insurance comparison sites turns to frustration: your car isn’t listed, there’s no facility to detail its modifications, and the quote you’re given isn’t the bargain you’d been expecting. And as for talking to a clued-up human being on the end of a phone line, forget it...
Wouldn’t it be nice to find a car insurer who’s actually on your wavelength, who genuinely understands what it is you’re looking to insure and can generate the right policy for it? That’s what David Watson and Jae Pearse set out to create when they refocused the direction of their company, Safely Insured, ten years ago, having previously run it as a chain of high street insurance brokers.
As Jae explains: “Safely Insured took the decision not to use the fashionable methods of price comparison sites and call centres.
“We wanted to remain true to our roots and continue to offer our services to drivers who were not looking for the ‘stack it high, sell it cheap’ approach, and preferred brokers who were focused as much on service as they are on price. Our policies appeal to drivers with more complex insurance needs – whether their vehicle has lots of modifications or is a high-performance car, or whether they just want to speak to an insurance professional who could add value to the process of buying insurance.”
Further evidence of Safely Insured’s zeal for all things quick and automotive is the company’s five- year sponsorship of Driftworks – the UK and Europe’s number one drifting team.
Thanks to their intimate knowledge of the market, the Safely Insured team are able to produce tailor-made policies, not just for individual cars, but for fleets, too, whether they're company cars or your private collection. And the company can provide track day cover, like for like modification cover and agreed valuations.
Safely Insured does good business with UK car clubs, too, and has a dedicated car club team – car club members receive discounts on their premiums because, as Ollie explains, “members of car clubs are generally car enthusiasts who take pride and care with their cars, which when it comes to car insurance, is music to our ears”.
As tends to be the way with companies that offer great customer service, 85 per cent of Safely Insured’s business comes from word of mouth. Read our customer reviews on our TrustPilot page.
