Finding a Car

When comes to buying and selling cars, it is not as easy as ABC. Very often, most Singaporeans will shop around for the cheapest cars available in town. Thinking that by buying the cheapest car will get them the best bargain cars. Well, Singaporeans forget that there is an old English saying, “you pay for what you get”. Cheapest cars does not mean that it is best bargain cars nor it is the best cars in town. Price is one factor, other factors such as condition of the vehicle, after sales service support, getting the cheapest insurance or even in the event of any car accident, who can you rely on?

Simply Cars is the answer. They are a one stop station for more than 13 insurance companies. Their founder, has more than 10 years experience in the motor vehicle industry and he is also a GIA certified insurance agent. On top of that, he has more than 5 years experience in motor surveyor (other known as motor appraiser). When comes to insurance accident claims, you can always rely on him.

Motor Insurance has been risen for the past 2 years. Noted in Straits Times and other publications, due to insurance claims, the motor insurance has risen more than. 30% over the past year and will continue to rise. By going to some insurance agents you can find, you may able to get cheap insurance. This may be true. Unfortunate things do happen. Car accidents happened. Be it you are right or wrong, whether doing 1st party claim or 3rd party (claiming against other party), many asked how. The complexity may result many car owners or commercial vehicles owners not able to claim or even losing the NCD or letting some “famous” workshops to over claim resulting their renewal insurance premiums shot up. This is the major cause of the risen insurance premiums. Engaging Simply Cars as your preferred agent, not only you get value for money insurance, cheapest insurance but also the support you will get from their founder when comes to accident claims. The founder has support of many workshops and having him to do appraiser for the motor claims, he will stand on the owner point of view to fight for the rights of the owner be it individual or commercial owners to find bargain with the workshop owners not to over claim the accident. This will result in lowering the cost of renewal of any insurance premium on a long run. If Singaporeans dun help one another and by letting the “famous” workshop to claim more than what they deserved, insurance premiums will rise and ultimately the benefits are the workshop owners and the lawyers involved in claiming the insurance.
