Testimonials
Having bought this car site unseen, it was exactly to the standard described. Jesmond even went as far to see to all any repairs it required prior to me collecting it. He never cut corners. I can only say that it was a very good experience dealing with Jesmond. Very honest and reliable people whom I would recommend to others.

This was our first purchase from Waimak Classic Cars and has gone very well. Jesmond and Gloria were very attentive thru the complete process and nothing was a problem. Small issues were promptly fixed and attention to detail was good. Thank you and we look forward to many happy years driving our new classic. Best Regards

Hi Jesmond, Re Jaguar - I am most grateful for what you have done. It is a measure of your integrity and commitment. The brakes were superb and I confess that the first time I touch them, I realised that there was a full pedal and likely new pads all round. Once again, thank you.

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.

Jesmond, we have to say that our dealings with you could not have been better. Your helpfulness and attention to detail were all that one would want when trying to make up ones mind over buying a classic car. Also what you were prepared to provide as part of the sale was excellent and setting it all out in writing was good as there could be no mistakes. We will have no hesitation in advising friends and acquaintances to contact you when looking for a classic car. Thank you for your patience and we wish you well in your venture.
