Fantastic Vehicle, financially I could upgrade to a new car anytime I like however we like this car so much we've kept it and wont be upgrading until it's mechanically worn out. It's a shame the Maga no is no longer made but if you are looking at buying one you realy will not be dissapointed.
We have an automatic 1999 TJ Magna Sport Sedan which we bought as a Mitsubishi Executive driven demo and my gosh is this a good car! It has plenty of power and goes round corners like it's on rails. The build quality is fantastic with superb ride and handl...Read more

Brilliant vehicle. I would happily buy another one if they were still in production. Magnas were my car of choice in my work fleet until a change in management lumbered us with Holdens.
Lots of space for 3 kids and a (big) dog. Comfortable to ride in and quiet compared to other vehicles the same age. Reliable and have only had to spend money on it for regular services and a few small things that wear out, until recently when we had the heater matrix start leaking. Replacement of this was half the price quoted by our mechanic, based on his exper...Read more

Having bought this car from new (2002 VR-X Magna) it has driven like a dream and still does. The fact that it was the first Australian made car with 5 speed tiptronic, digital climate control and looks to make Holden and Ford owners jealous made up for it being front wheel drive. I still drive like I stole it and although FWD it corners like it's on rails. As i've wanted to update my vehicle i'm having a very hard time finding a car around $40k with the features this car had back in 2002. Definitely a car ahead of it's time and still unmatchabl...Read more

I've owned a 02' Magna VRX for almost six years and it really is the best car I've ever owned. It is super reliable and has just as much power now as it did when I bought it. It looks better than falcons and commodores and is quicker than them too. In 6 years the car has not had one mechanical problem and servicing has only ever involved routine things.

The only thing that has ever gone wrong with this car has been electrics related. The fuel quantity indicator broke making me think I had a fuel leak, but that was easy fix. And the CD player...Read more

The Magna range has a very good reliable engine with a strong reliable history ...Read more

A really good performer and while it doesn't have the creature comforts of our previous Magna, an Elite, it does the job and quite pleasantly as well.
Ours is a TJ Sports mfg 2000 and we bought new 2001. Really impressive power when needed (on the Kings Highway this matters), long distance economy acceptable (720k on 115kph cruise control), none of the trim has fallen off or broken or ceased to work except the radio, pulls the boat and heavily laden trailers with ease up and down steep slopes where the ability to switch to sequential gearing is...Read more

I would recommend the Magna as a good overall family car. Due to bad publicity it's had an effect on the value of the Magna which people must wonder why are they so cheap to buy compared to say Toyota. I found that it is a value for dollar car which is worth a lot more then you pay. I would value the 05 model as being worth at least 22-24 grand and we could have bought it for 16500 drive away. It had everything. We chose to watch our budget and purchase a 02 model that a elderly gentleman had and it is in spotless condition for 11 grand. That c...Read more

Overall it's a great car... for the long drive for a family holiday... on half a tank I got to the top of Tasmania and back down... without topping up at all... however going through Hobart on half a tank... I would nearly be empty when I get home.
Pick up is awesome!!! I have raced BMW's, Supra's... even tuned cars and my factory Magna has beaten them all.
If it had GPS It would be so good...

Still buy one over a Commodore, Falcon & Camry. It's so much better than all of them... Ride is also very smooth when the tyres are at about 35-40ps...Read more

All in all I would buy another one if they still made them as I love wagons over sedans but no one is going to make wagons as Ford and Holden are going for the Captiva and Territory and if I want an AWD or 4WD I'll actually buy a real 4WD. I moved house using the wagon four times and could fit a queen size mattress and base inside. The car was previously owned for a photocopying company and we all know how well people look after company cars so that being the case and it being seven years old I am happy with what I have got out of the car for t...Read more
