I've bought 2 cars off Jesmond and Gloria at Waimak Classic Cars and both vehicles and my customer experience exceeded expectations. The cars were both as promised and the transactions were as smooth as could be possibly hoped for. Exceptional customer service is one of the hallmarks of your operation. Both purchases were done remotely - sight unseen, the first an outright purchase, the second a trade, but I was totally confident throughout the process given the pictorial overviews on the website and your obvious honesty and integrity and willingness to facilitate any independent mechanical/body inspections and in turn correct any faults found. I was not let down on either occasion and would not hesitate to buy another vehicle from you in similar regard. It was great to meet Jesmond and Gloria on a holiday down south and your hospitality in showing us around you classic car storage facility was much appreciated. I keenly look forward to catching up again sometime. Thanks again

Dear Jesmond & Gloria, A very big unexpected surprise on a perfect Wednesday afternoon 22nd May, our lovely Triumph arrived at the front door. She travelled very well and arrived with no damage, just a couple of rub marks which polished out. We were very pleased and excited to meet her, as you can imagine she got a thorough looking over and out for a short drive. We have booked her into our mechanic this coming Monday for a full mechanical service before we take her out on the open road, this is a good way to get to know her and to understand what her future needs will be. Thank you so much for your card, bottle of wine and Classic Driver magazine, the seat belts are still in the box and will probably stay there. You have been a lovely couple to deal with, everything and more has progressed as you said it would, our very best wishes for your future success.

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 purchased a Jaguar XJ 40 with a/c that did not work he said he would fix it at his cost and he certainly followed through on his promise. I would most certainly recommend Jesmond to anybody considering buying a high-quality classic car. Honesty, Integrity, and knowledge. Peter From Orewa.

Gloria and team...Thank you!...From my parents driveway in Rangiora New Zealand to the Lincolnshire Wolds in England....... your care and attention has been so supportive and more than just a job. You have helped transport a car and memories. Without your help at Waimak Classic Cars, this journey for the 1974 MGB would have been more difficult, or still just a dream. Thank you for making this dream come true. Can not thank you enough.
