A division of Cummins Classic Cars P/L

The Best Car Company was established in London in 1966. Formed by my father, Ian Best. This is where my love and fascination for classic cars began. I remember very well our first Jaguar E-Type, a BRG 3.8 FHC. Then, a near new low mileage car, I first sighted it through the window of a rented lockup garage and next in my father’s showroom at the Purley Oaks Service Station. From then-on the Jaguar E-Type became my fascination. In later years the company moved to Wimbledon Village selling, servicing and repairing the very same type of cars we work on today.

 

58 years later my enthusiasm for all classics has not diminished, and after 47 years in the business I have a deep well of knowledge to offer in the field of British and European classic cars.

Jaguar MK2 3.8 & E-Type Series 1 4.2

I purchased a Jaguar MK2 from Jeremy Best of Cummins Classic Cars in 2012. I was green in my knowledge of these pieces of art, their workings and the market. I still am. However, since then Jeremy has nurtured my thirst for knowledge and appreciation of this new world I find myself in. I couldn’t think of a more helpful, courteous or expert of Jaguars in the market. Servicing comes with helpful advice, attention to detail and with the customers interests always at heart. Maybe that’s why I have purchased another MK2 and embarked on the restoration of a 1965 E-type……the journey has just begun!
