Our Jag made it home from CHCH to Tauranga, without missing a beat! The car is everything we wanted and we are very pleased with the purchase. You guys made the difference when buying a vehicle unseen, from a long distance away and nothing seemed an issue and your communication was reassuring at all times. Thanks for taking the time to handover the vehicle on a Friday afternoon and giving us a tour around your collection of beautiful cars. I wouldn’t hesitate buying another vehicle of you and I’m pretty sure we will be back again 😊

I feel I must write to you a letter that you may like to put to your customers. As you know I missed on a couple of your cars because of a car I was selling . However a lovely looking car came up on trade me .It was in North Auckland. I rang the older owner and found he had brought the car off a neighbour, I asked him about any rust problems . He said any rust that was there had been cut out and repaired properly. It had just been re upholstered and as the paintwork was original he had only the mudguards resprayed. It had new tyres and new wheel cylinders and brakes relined.As it had been in storage for 8yrs it had to be certified. But where he lived he said would pose a problem for getting it to the testing station. He said would I get it done from my end. He said everything had been done and it would fly through.I said I would and got it Transported to Palmerston North. When it arrived the first thing the transporter driver said was be carefull it has very poor brakes. Then takingit up a small rise to get it into my garage the clutch was slipping badly. The paint was far from original and the mudgaurds had been sprayed with an aerosol can . These are just a few problems with the car. I rang the seller up told him how disapointed I was and said if I transport it back to him will he refund my money. He said no. As all the dealings I had with him were on the phone and nothing in writing. My hands were tied. Not all Trade Me sellers are honest. Make sure you go to Waimak Classic Cars who I know deal in quality cars.

Hi Gloria, Sorry to take so long to be in touch, but I have to let you know I have nothing but pure pleasure in me every time I drive that beautiful car. I can’t thank You and Jesmond enough for your very genuine care and organising which allowed me to purchase the car without worry. Everything you both said you would do, you did, without delay. Rest assured the champagne didn’t last long, that was a lovely surprise when I opened the boot. Thank you, such a lovely touch. Wishing you both all the very best, again you were so wonderful to deal with!

Dear Jesmond, You've been really good with the whole process of buying the car and it's very much appreciated. Thanks especially for bringing the car into the city, I didn't expect that and it's super good of you.

When I was looking for a classic car recently, Jesmond was very helpful and attentive, providing me with options that were exactly what I was looking for. I had never met him or been in his showroom but he impressed me with his knowledge and experience in the industry. Jesmond answered all my questions with patience, going above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied with my purchase. Not everyone would buy a car sight unseen from the internet, but I did and it worked out really well. I would definately buy from him again in the future.
