Description
THIS IS A ONE OWNER VEHICLE FROM NEW
The original owner took delivery of this vehicle in Park Lane London on 30 June 1972 under the NZ government scheme whereby if you purchased a vehicle and owned and used it for 1 year and were absent from New Zealand for 21 months one could avoid any custom duty in both countries.
This car was garaged from day one in London, and has been for the remainder of its ownership. About 2500 miles was clocked up in the UK and it was never exposed to salted roads in snow/ice conditions. Because of complex qualifying conditions, the car was taken to the Continent and it was shipped out of Rotterdam to New Zealand in July of 1973.
From that time onwards the car has been located in the Waikato. It was initially used as any car would be used for family use, but in latter years more as a backup vehicle and hence the relatively low mileage for a car of this age. The car was serviced at its appointed times as evidenced by the records that were sent with the car.
Initially at Ross Jensen Motors in Auckland, McMillan BMW Auckland ,Coombes Johnson BMW Hamilton, SD European Horitiu,and finally Hillcrest Autos Hamilton (owned by a previous service manager at Coombes Johnson). It was cleaned thoroughly mostly on a weekly basis, not driven on metal roads and every effort made to protect it from sun damage.
Car had Gold Seal anti rust process carried out around 1978.
During the last dozen years no trips in excess of 100 miles have occurred. Most outings have been about 20 miles only. Hence low mileage.
The radio and cassette player crashed out in the 1990s and the radio was repaired and was operable for a short time. The cassette has remained untouched as the original owner was unable to locate anyone with the ability to repair it.
Drives and works very well.
PRICE FIRM. Car will be sold with a 6 month WOF and 12 months registration.
Shipping / Transport can be organised for Buyer at Buyer's cost.
Viewing is STRICTLY BY PRIOR APPOINTMENT only.

NOTIFICATION AS TO NATURE OF GOODS IN TERMS OF THE CONSUMER GUARANTEES ACT 1993
Waimak Classic Cars Ltd is a New Zealand registered company and accepts that the vehicle being sold must be of “acceptable quality” in terms of section 7 of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (the Act) having regard to “the nature of the goods”.
Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.
The Purchaser is encouraged to personally fully inspect the vehicle and also to have the vehicle inspected, and fully assessed by an experienced, independent, specialist garage - before committing to purchase. While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.
The Purchaser acknowledges that they have read and fully understand this notification and the nature of a car which is many years old.
For more information about this vehicle, please contact us Monday to Friday between 9:00am and 6:00pm (New Zealand Standard Time) on +64 (0) 3 310-6485. Alternatively, you may email us at [email protected] anytime.
