Finding nice classics has never been easy and it can be a real minefield on the open market. Do you buy privately at auction or come to a classic car specialist? Unfortunately the first two options do come with some major draw backs and the saying you get what you pay for has never been more true. Whether its mechanical or condition issues, its best to seek the help of the professionals.
Buying privately or at auction you can be left with a hefty hole in your wallet once you have your dream car back home and it can turn quickly into a nightmare. While its nice to always give the benefit of the doubt to private sellers when a problem occurs, Its not always the case and good luck getting any help from auction houses after you have paid the auction buyer fees.
Fortunately we get to meet and deal with some genuine enthusiasts and owners that are looking for good homes for their beloved classic, which more often than not are considered members of the family.
Do you already own a classic car, motorbike, or anything interesting? We are always happy to consider a part exchange up or down in value of any kind. Please send any information and pictures you have to us.
They all look good in the pictures but you really need to buy with your head and not your heart. When sourcing cars we have our own check lists and although its rare for all the boxes to be ticked making sure the car is mechanically and structurally sound is our main concern. Minor works on any classic car is to be expected and we can address these before ownership is taken.
We have a large variety of cars in our directory ranging from Jaguars to Minis and just about everything in between.
The XJS has always been a stable part of our business and we can meet most requirements. 4.0l, 6.0l V12 coupes and convertibles in right hand drive and left hand drive, automatics and manuals. Please drop us a message and we will reply with a selection of cars that maybe suitable.
Lastly classic car ownership should be something to enjoy and take pleasure in. Nothing feels like driving a classic car and the sense of occasion it brings. I can't stop for fuel in an XJS without someone starting a conversation and wanting to take a picture. It's our responsibility to look after these classic cars for future generations of petrol heads.
