Beaulieu Archives - AIB Insurance

On Sunday 5th June, the fourth Simply Porsche event took place in Beaulieu at the historic National Motor Museum and it will come as no surprise to our many clients to read that AIB Insurance were in attendance once more. With so many Porsches on display covering many decades, a number of motoring stands to look at as well as your ticket also providing access to the museum if you arrived in your Porsche you are sure to have enjoyed a superb day out especially as the weather was so kind to us.

The huge selection of Porsches to admire included the likes of the 911, 914, 924 and 928 classics and more recently manufactured models such as the Cayman and Boxster. In fact, as the 924 had been around for 40 years and the Boxster for 20 years, these models were parked in a group. It was a tremendous opportunity for lovers of this elite sports car to meet and talk with like-minded individuals.

Hopefully, you will have taken the opportunity to participate in the People’s Choice Awards by casting your vote as to which you felt was the most popular Porsche attending the event. As well as being presented with a prize and trophy the owner of the winning vehicle proudly drove their Porsche at the front of a line of Porsches within the grounds.

Yet again, the ladies of AIB Insurance were well received by a number of our valued Porsche owner customers at our stand who have kindly favoured us with arranging their specialist motor insurance to cover their beloved sports cars for many years. We met several long- standing customers who have attended this event on more than one occasion but it was also lovely to meet some clients for the first time. We are sure that you will agree, to be able to “put a face to a name” is undoubtedly beneficial to everyone.

We look forward to meeting you at next year’s Simply Porsche event.

AIB Insurance was kindly asked to attend the Simply Porsche event that took place at the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu in the New Forest on Sunday 7th June 2015 by our good friends at 911uk.com where we joined them on their stand. The event was organized in association with The Independent Porsche Enthusiasts Club (TIPEC)

What a wonderful day it turned out to be for all concerned, made all the more enjoyable by some glorious sunny weather. It is estimated that over 700 Porsche’s were on display in the delightful grounds of Beaulieu with people coming from all over the country, making it one of the biggest Porsche events ever to be held in the UK.

There was such a huge array of different Porsche models from classic to modern cars to look over – all lovingly cared for by their proud owners. A number of them were on display at the 911uk.com stand such as a 997 Turbo, 997 GT3, 996 GT3, 996 Turbo, 993 GT recreation, 964 and a 3.2 Carrera.

This was the third annual Simply Porsche event to take place and, in addition to being able to look at many Porsche’s, there were a variety of trade stands selling accessories and parts specifically for the Porsche enthusiast. The event opened at 9.30am and, for those arriving in their Porsche’s, they were able to gain entry for the reduced price of £10 per adult and £5 per child. For this, you not only were able to view as many Porsche as you could get around, but you also had access to the National Motor Museum, the Abbey, Palace House and the exquisite grounds.

Here at AIB Insurance, we have to say that we found it particularly pleasing to meet a number of clients that we have been able to arrange bespoke Porsche car insurance for as well as view the cars themselves. Over the many years that we have been established, we have built up a reputation for arranging specialist insurance for the discerning motorist whether it is to cover a classic vehicle or a new model. In this respect, why not give us a call on 02380 268 351 and speak with one of our experienced team who will gladly obtain a no-obligation quotation on your behalf.

We hope to be present at next year’s event and meeting even more Porsche owners and their cherished vehicles.
