Well, whether you think magna's are a shit car or not is a matter of opinion. I think personally that the fact that the car has only done 67,000 kms and was owned by a grandma is a pretty good sign. I dont think you'll start having any major problems for at least the next 50,000kms. So i think its a good buy.

im looking for a nice suberu impreza rx for my next car, something with the ability to have grunt and also is fkn awesome on fuel... hopefully a 95 - 97 model coz the ones with the bugeyes just look shit imo

two things my dad always said to me

- never buy an old mitsubishi
- never buy a camira

get the nrma or whatever u have there to check it out, u should be able to get an inspection or something. seeing as i only have my Ls most of my car opinions are based on looks and i reckon current magnas look fine! especially the vr-x ones, mmmmm

Ahhh evo 6, my current dream car...

One of the fastest production cars around corners.
Will rip the wheels of a WRX and the new evo 7....

I have one way to describe this car... Totally Insane.

This thing is like the god of all rally cars (well it was)

Anyway back to your magna, $2,000 for something that's done under 70,000 clicks is a pretty good price. Get the RACV to inspect it for u and ask for the service log books to make sure it's been serviced every 10,000km or so. Also check for sighns of a crash repair. (granny drivers can be pretty stupid sometimes)

Else u should get at least 50,000 km more out of the car without much problems.. but then again ask around about this auto gearbox problem everyone's talking about.

Good luck with ur car mate.

Cheers.

not a bad deal given its only done 67,000 and that its only for A to B

just make sure it is serviced regularly (every 5,000 for that sort of car) to make sure all is in order.
