Learn More About Our Elite Classic Cars

Even though they might not be made anymore, classic cars are a timeless wonder; they come in many iconic shapes and sizes. You can spot American classic cars from a mile away, which is why they’re not only appealing to car lovers, but everyone from engineers, designers, artists, and historians. It also doesn’t matter what period you’re looking at, there is something special for every enthusiast. These cars are on an entirely different level than the regular cars you see on the road. They give you an experience like never before. They give you a sense of style and exclusivity with their unique craftsmanship.

Benefits of Classic Cars in NZ

Modern cars are mechanically advanced compared to vintage cars, but vintage cars have a special kind of beauty, and they are an investment that will increase in value over time. The fact that classic cars are no longer in production only enhances their unique character. If you are looking to stand out from the crowd, we’d recommend buying yourself one, but if you are still unconvinced, here are some more benefits to owning a classic car.


  • The distinctive design of these cars is something no one can ever take away from them. Modern car designers use computer programs, but classic autos went from the imagination of their designers via paper and pencil to the manufacturers who built these cars with beautiful soft lines. Also, mass production can’t produce these cars because experienced artisans created them by hand.
  • While modern vehicles rely on a central computer, vintage cars balance thousands of individual mechanical parts that work in harmony together. So with no driving aid in these cars compared to your modern cars, the driver needs to be much more experienced to drive one of them. However, in turn, a classic car will give you the ultimate driving experience.
  • The remarkable aspect of vintage cars is their simplicity. That’s why with our experienced car garage mechanics, we’ll be able to turn any vintage car into your dream car. You’ll be able to change and switch parts out to fit your needs and customise them to your unique style.
  • Some vintage cars are rare, but not to worry, at Jonesy’s, we’ll be able to assist you in any specific vehicle you desire and guide you through the buying process.

Mistakes To Avoid When Buying Classic Muscle Cars

We would recommend buying classic cars in Hamilton to anyone, but you need to do some research on the matter if you are a first-time buyer. Find out what people have to say about the specific car you consider buying and ask us for assistance in the buying process. We are here to give you as much detail as possible to make sure you don’t drive off with a car that might pose you challenges down the line. Here are some mistakes to avoid and make sure you get the best deal possible.


  • Buying a vintage car that looks great is terrific, but you must purchase something that you love. Choose a vehicle that you’re passionate about, even if no one else likes it. If you buy the car of your dreams, you are more likely to be willing to spend extra time and money on it when something breaks.
  • Asking for a professional inspection is crucial. We will gladly do that for you, but you can also use another company registered to do appraisals on vintage cars.
  • With any car, you’re going to pay for upkeep, and if you don’t do your research correctly, you can spend a lot of money on even the slightest bit of maintenance. Compare prices from different establishments to get the price that suits your pocket.
