Testimonials
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!

Over the last 30 years I have had many exotic cars, but I have only recently become interested in classic cars. This interest led me to Waimak Classic Cars website and subsequent visit to Jesmond and Gloria's premises in Rangiora. Through their honest interest in providing only quality cars at a fair margin, I quickly gained faith and ended up buying three vehicles from them, including the 1934 Bugatti featured on their website. I am a discerning buyer and my confidence that Jesmond and Gloria were fair traders made the experience uniquely enjoyable. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Once again a pleasure to deal with two professionals. My little piece of ‘Nostalgia ‘ arrived safe and sound into Napier today. A wash and a polish and it looks just like the photos….beautiful ! A quick call to Jesmond and I now have a handle on how to operate her. A short…if steep drive from Ahuriri up to Milton Terrace and she is sitting in the garage alongside the MGA. Should be a lot of fun come Art Deco season….I may even get in the parade with the other 500 classics. Many thanks for the wine & card and of course for your accurate description of the car….always good when your buying sight unseen. Last time I had this car I was sixteen and a half…had to wait six months before i could go on the road, im now 70 ! Take care till next time you have something that takes my eye.

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 !!

Many Thanks to Jesmond and Gloria for the successful marketing of our vehicle. We didn't want the hassle of non-genuine buyers wasting our time requesting views and drives. Waimak Classic Cars specialise in the type of vehicle we had to sell and that's important. Jesmond removed all that and secured a satisfactory result for us.
