Hi Gloria & Jesmond, i couldn't wait for next week to get the car so on a whim i flew down and picked the car up from Wellington, i must say apart from the flight lol it was the most enjoyable day i have had in a long while, and on my way home i had heaps of beeps, toots and thumbs up from other travellers and well wishers who were obviously admiring the car. The car is everything you and J described it as and much much more, my wife who isnt a huge car fan absolutely loves it as well.............so once again many thanks for you help and service.

Thank you Gloria and Jesmond!! I bought a car from you guys online without viewing it in person. But talking to Jesmond on the phone it was obvious he was a genuine classic car enthusiast. I always wanted a DS since I was a boy. Thirty years later finally own one. Absolutely stoked with the car !! Love learning all of it's quirks !! Shipping up to Auckland and insurance were provided by Waimak classic cars and car arrived in great condition considering wild weather at the time. Great communication and a hassle free purchase. Once again thank you very much !!

Like most baby boomers I have bought and sold many cars over my lifetime, but none came close to the pleasure of dealing with Gloria and Jesmond. Jesmond insisted I get an independent assessment of the car and any repairs needed would be on him. It turned out that the car was not quite what we thought, but true to his word and without protest or negotiation, he took care of all the repairs, to the extent, that I doubt there was anything left in for them. There was total transparency on what was going on as I was kept in the loop by Gloria. Classics are, by their definition, older cars that may have hidden problems, but dealing with Jesmond and Gloria you can be assured that the process of purchase will be worry free and you will receive the car that you desired.

I am very pleased with my 'new' Daimler, a 1959 Majestic whom I call 'Dawne'. I acquired her in October from you and the transaction, which involved the sale of my previous Daimler, 'Juliet', went very well, even if it inevitably took a while for so specialised a car as a 1956 Daimler 104 to be sold at a satisfactory price. I was impressed with your courtesy and efficiency throughout. While I miss Juliet, her replacement was everything that you claimed, and when I took Dawne on a round trip to Christchurch and Akaroa, she went like a dream and I managed 12.8l/100 km from her, which is pretty good for a car of that size and age. I look forward to enjoying her in the years to come. Thank you!
