BIKING GREATS GO TO ROCHDALE MOTORCYCLE DEALERSHIP
Romford, August 8th 2005– Valentine Rossi
may have picked up 25 points at the Donington Park Moto GP but thanks
to Devitt, the day’s biggest winner was motorcycle dealership
H Robinson and Sons.
Together with a VIP day out at the event, the Rochdale dealership
won a set of four original paintings by top motorcycle artist Jim
Blanchard as the main prize in Devitt’s national dealer competition.
Each of these unique paintings illustrates the four key qualities
of the leading motorcycle insurance broker: Experience and Longevity,
Teamwork, Performance and Success.
Devitt was a pioneer of selling motorcycle insurance nearly 70
years ago and is now one of the leading motorcycle insurance brokers
in the UK.
A delighted David Dearden, Managing Director of H Robinson and
Sons said, “I've been an admirer of Jim Blanchard's work so
to get the limited edition prints from Devitt was a real treat,
especially when it’s from a company who we've known for 40
years or so. Now I've won the originals I'm absolutely over the
moon. I am debating whether to put them up at home or at work!"
Martin Pretlove, Managing Director of Devitt (at the time), paid tribute to the
company’s network of UK dealerships:
“Our aim is to be the most admired motorcycle insurance broker
in the UK; the first choice for dealerships, as well as for the
customer.
“It is through the support from dealers that we look after
the insurance interests of over 200,000 customers across our product
range and I’m happy to be able to show our appreciation to
them in this small way.”
