I just wanted to thank you for the beautiful 1974 XJ6 that I have purchased from you. I live north of Auckland and so I did not view the car prior to purchase, but after speaking with Jesmond I did have the confidence to buy the car from the photos only. I’m very happy to say that my confidence was not misplaced and when the car arrived on the transporter this morning I was totally thrilled with the car. I have wanted one of these cars for 50 years and now I have achieved my ambition! Many thanks once again, I would recommend your company and service to anyone.

Having recently made my second purchase from Jesmond, I would just like to endorse the comments I made when I making my first purchase , in that once again I have not been disappointed or disadvantaged in not having physically seen the vehicle prior to its delivery in Auckland , finding the description regarding condition both visually and mechanically to have been spot on. As in the first transaction all matters of payment and delivery were professionally carried out, I can recommend Jesmond and Waimak Classic Cars to anyone seeking a quality , reliable , Classic, Vintage or Veteran vehicle .

I have had a yearning to purchase a vintage or classic car for a number of years and have read Classic Car magazines and trolled internet auction sites until I came to the Waimak Classic Cars Web site. There was a certain classic car listed that was very close to marque and vintage of my first car I ever owned. It was early 50s English favourite. I contacted Jesmond by email as an initial inquiry and he responded promptly and gave me background of the vehicle in addition to what was described on the web site. Obviously an inspection was vital. With then roading problems between Marlborough and Canterbury a convenient time to visit Waimak was agreed given we decided to include a family visit to CHCH to coincide Jesmond was extremely flexible and agreed to meet us in Rangiora to take us to his display site. It certainly was a pleasure to meet both Jesmond and Gloria and it was clear from the outset we were dealing with very good honest and genuine people.
We did not purchase the vehicle of initial choice. Whilst a lovely car heart was not where the head was. It just would not fit in my garages!
After inspecting and admiring many fine examples we fell in love with a rare for NZ near finished restored 1947 Rover P2. The purchase including a service plus up to date warrant and registration was completed and Gloria arranged the transport of the vehicle to us here in Blenheim. I could not fault the professionalism coupled with warm friendly attitude of both Jesmond and Gloria and strongly commend them to anyone seeking a purchase and or sale of their classic car. Post purchase communication and advice was excellent.

Hi Gloria and Jesmond, What a neat experience it was purchasing a car from Waimak Classic Cars. I LOVE IT !! It’s in amazing condition for 25 years old, a great driving experience and very very pleasing on the eye to look at. You’ll remember my wife called first and said she wanted to buy this car for her husband’s Christmas present, she had only looked at it online for 30 seconds haha. Buying a car sight unseen is quite a leap of faith to be honest, however we were really inspired by the magnificent array of cars you have sold over the years, what an amazing tribute to motoring, we feel quite honoured to have purchased a car from Waimak Classic Cars. Thank you. Kind regards Bill & Michele.
