Testimonials

"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."

      Specifications


      Description

      The MGB is arguably Britian's most popular classic car.

      For a car that can trace its roots back to 1962, it handles very well. The rack-and-pinion steering provides the kind of feedback drivers of modern cars can but dream of. It's a proper sports car driving experience – you sit low down, and its four-cylinder engine creates a pleasing rasp.

      What's really surprising is how torquey the B-series engine is. Most of the time, you can leave it in fourth-gear, flicking the overdrive on and off using the switch on the gearknob.

      ABOUT THIS CAR

      • Absolutely Mint – this car is in stunning condition.
      • Two Owners
      • Webasto Sunroof
      • Beautiful Paintwork

      Being such a popular classic car, there's a huge amount of support for the MGB in both the club scene and specialist companies. While there's no reason why an MGB should be unreliable if it's looked after and serviced regularly, parts are readily available and you're unlikely to encounter an issue that isn't covered in depth on internet forums.

      These are great cars and this MGB is one of the cleanest and most presentable examples in New Zealand.

      If you want a rare classic that'll get lots of attention; a British sports car that's brilliant at pootling around on a sunny day, with a huge support network, the MGB is ideal.

      Will be sold WOF'd and Registered if sold in New Zealand.
