Hey guys, just a heads up that the magna is mine. I haven't touched it in about a year due to wedding stuff but will be getting stuck back into it shortly. Here is the most up to date photo I have of it.

That magna is sweet. I used to have one. Mine was FWD but would of loved an AWD one. Not a bad car at all.


Today I saw the typical VE ute with a chevy badge, very common and boring these days. The biggest fail is its number plate. "CHE**V"
If you like chevys so much BUY ONE!!!!!!!!!

N.B. ** is in the place of the numbers.

Gee those Magnas were way ahead of their time in 1996. Projector lights, smooth doors, pull handles. Makes the EF and VR contemporaries look so dated and the equivalent Camry look like something from the 80s.

I actually get a kick out of stuff like this. Shows the owner doesn't take themselves too seriously. Of course that's assuming it's done as a joke!

Do you know if the scoop is actually doing anything or is it just sitting on top for the look factor? Wouldn't be so bad if it was just the chev badge, but the scoop puts it out of place.

Saw a current model dual cab Triton with a um... unusual rear canopy.

The Triton had another triton tray (same colour as the rest of the car) upsidedown on the back!
And im assuming he wasnt just carrying it, as he had ladders on the upsidedown tray....
