You might not be able to afford another house, but a lot of people can now afford that car that they always wanted. Everyday there are some really good vehicles coming on to the market.
In this catalogue, we are presenting some exquisite vehicles. Our supercar offerings are to die for, with a 2002 Ferrari 550 Barchetta and a 2008 Porsche 997 GT2 bringing an extremely attractive dose of x-factor to these pages. For those who prefer a more mature vintage, we have a number of high profile classics, such as the 1991 Aston Martin Lagonda (a great example of brutalist ‘wedge design’) and the 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL (with only 12,000kms on the clock - very rare). Hot on the heels of the great results we’ve had for Australian Muscle cars, we have a prime example of a 1972 XY Ford Fairmont GT available. No doubt, bidding will be highly competitive on these sensational machines. We trust that you will enjoy this catalogue, as we have enjoyed sourcing and presenting such an exceptional range of exquisite machines. The future of collectors’ cars in New Zealand looks very bright indeed.

1. Condition Report Disclaimer
There is NO cooling off period offered for motor cars or motorcycles offered at public auction. All vehicles sold within this auction are sold on an ‘as is’ basis. Under the Conditions of Sale applicable to the sale of the lot (please see the catalogue or www.webbs. co.nz for our conditions of sale), buyers must satisfy themselves as to each and every aspect of the quality of the lot, including (without limitation) its authorship, attribution, condition, provenance, authenticity, age, suitability and origin. Lots are sold on an 'as is' basis but the actual condition of the lot may not be as good as indicated by its outward appearance.
The fully illustrated catalogue will describe the vehicles to the best of our ability on information supplied. Should we receive pertinent information after the publication of the catalogue, we shall affix what is known as a Consumer Information Notice (CIN) to the vehicle. A list of all CINs will be available by the time the vehicles are presented for view. We are happy to offer our opinion only and should not be relied upon. In short, you should satisfy yourself as to the completeness, condition and integrity of any lot prior to bidding.
Any statement in relation to the lot is merely an expression of opinion of the seller or Webb’s and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and you are strongly advised to examine any lot in which you are interested prior to the sale. Although all care has been taken to accurately describe the condition of this lot, this report has not been prepared by a professional conservator or restorer and no guarantees. Webb’s is not entering into a contract with the addressee in the respect of the condition report and accordingly does not assume responsibility to the addressee in respect of it.
However where the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 applies, nothing in these Terms shall contract out of or shall limit the application of that Act.
Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 Where the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 does apply the Buyer acknowledges that the following are relevant circumstances in relation to the supply of the Goods and may reduce the acceptable quality guarantee under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993:
(a) any information Webbs has disclosed on behalf of the Vendor concerning the nature of the Vendor (for example whether the Vendor has used the Goods itself), the context in which the Vendor offers to supply the Goods;
(b) where the Goods are a vehicle: (i) the results of any Vehicle Condition Report; (ii) any defects or observations in relation to the Vehicle and which are recorded on the CIN card or notified by Webbs have been taken into account by the Buyer before bidding on the vehicle; (iii) notification of any defects is an indication to the Buyer that further defects may exist.
2. Vehicles
Buyer Inspection: A vehicle is complicated machinery that may contain inherent and latent defects which can only be discovered by a thorough pre purchase inspection. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) the responsibility for examining and assessing the condition of any vehicle rests with the Buyer;
(b) Webbs recommends that the Buyer carry out a pre purchase inspection even where no defect disclosures have been made by the Vendor; and
(c) the Buyer has had every opportunity to carry out an inspection and its own evaluation of the Goods and their quality prior to purchasing the Goods.
Vehicle Condition Report Any Vehicle Condition Report attached to the Vehicle has been prepared following a limited and basic inspection of the Vehicle. When preparing the Vehicle Condition Report, no part of the Vehicle was dismantled, no diagnostic testing was undertaken. The Vendor and Webbs recommend that any interested Buyer arrange a full mechanical inspection of the Vehicle prior to purchase.
Warrant of fitness: (a) Vehicles will be sold either unregistered or currently registered with a Warrant of Fitness (WoF) having been carried out within the last 30 days of the sale date. Each vehicle offered by Webb’s at auction will mention which is applicable
(b) Where any vehicle does not at the time of delivery have a current certificate or warrant of fitness the Buyer undertakes to Webbs that they will not, except for the purpose of obtaining in-service certification, operate the vehicle until it has been inspected and certified for in service fitness as provided for in Rule 9.12(4) of the Land Transport Rule 35001/1 Vehicle Standards Compliance 2002.
(c) If the vehicle has at the time of delivery a current warrant of fitness issued more than one month prior to delivery then the buyer acknowledges and accepts this. (d) CIN: As soon as practicable after the purchase of a vehicle the Buyer must sign a written acknowledgement that Webbs has provided the Buyer with a copy of the Consumer Information Notice which was attached to the vehicle or displayed online.
(e) Change of ownership: Every Buyer must supply to Webbs before taking delivery of a Vehicle the information necessary to enable a change of ownership to be registered. Webbs reserve the right to delay release of the Vehicle until this is done.
3. Exclusions And Limitations
In Trade Buyer: Where the Vendor is In Trade and the Buyer has acquired the Goods in trade, the Vendor, Webbs and the Buyer agree to contract out of the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 and sections 9 (Misleading and deceptive conduct generally), 12A (unsubstantiated representations), and 13 (False or misleading representations) of the Fair Trading Act 1986.
Generally: If the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 does not apply to the sale of the Goods or if the Vendor and Buyer have contracted out of the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993:
(a) Webbs excludes any liability for any representation(s) or statement(s) that may be made or implied by Webbs or the Vendor;
(b) in the case of any dispute relating to the Goods or the sale of the Goods any remedy of the Buyer shall be against the Vendor only and under no circumstances (including an action for breach of any fundamental obligation) shall any remedy lie against Webbs or any agent, contractor or employee of Webbs.
