"Living in Australia we first contacted Jesmond seeking to buy a veteren vehicle and we were impressed with the clarity and detail of his site. A vehicle we were interested had been sold and as a result of our enquiry regular updates of new vehicles were sent to our address. It was from this list we inspected and purchased a vehicle recently and were impressed with the service offered by Jesmond during the sale process"

Hi Gloria, thank you for the lovely bottle of wine you gave us with the car. Murray drove the Jag down to Mosgiel last Saturday and said it drove extremely well. I must say that I am very impressed with the car. It looks even better than the photos show. We went on an outing Sunday afternoon and I drove it for the first time. It went well and is so nice to drive. Both my wife Anne and I love it. I must also say it has been a pleasure doing business with you and Jesmond and I hope to be able to work with you again in the future.

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 recently purchased a vehicle from Jesmond and found the whole process to be a great experience. I found Jesmond to be a very obliging and forthright person to deal with and felt quite quickly, that he is a man of integrity. He was very accommodating and allowed me all the time I required in making my purchase, never at any time did I feel pressured or unduly influenced in any way. Having said that he did take the time to find out what my needs and wants were regarding my vehicle purchase and was able to steer me on the right path with his vast knowledge of European cars until I was able to decide clearly what it was that I wanted. Once I had made my choice of vehicle he supplied me with all of the relevant history on it (where it originated from, work history etc) and familiarised me with the vehicle covering its performance and general running and how to get the best out of it. He encouraged me to get a check on the car prior to purchase and informed me of the best agents and automotive engineers that were locally available. His obvious love and passion for his vehicles and European vehicles in general came across strongly and only enhanced my faith in him and the car I was considering to purchase. When the sale was made and upon uplifting the vehicle I was delighted to find a full tank and a bottle of wine included. A nice touch. In short I found Jesmond a very professional and amiable person to deal with and would have no hesitation doing further business with him and would recommend him to anyone that could benefit from what he has to offer.

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!
