Hi all
just retired my tj 02 274000 klm still going strong donated to the neighbours son and purchased a 380 GTL always wanted one and its as good as i hoped
I have a few basic questions I hope someone can answer
build date 12/07 DB auto bog stock
is my car a series 2 or 3 badge says 2 but i thought the series 3 was 07 onwards
is the build number on the left hand compliance plate below the build date 6002 mine says
on the right hand side compliance plate that has the vin number it says DL series whats that all about
really enjoying the forum great info
we are on our 3rd pajero and now my 3rd magna also owned a lancer and a cordia

GT-L models were Series III only, an option pack based on the GT (Series III 380s ran from July 2007 to March 2008)
DL1A is the world Mitsubishi model code (DB being the local model code) for the 380 (just as F35A, F36A, F38A, F38AK, F48A, F35W, F36W, F38W are for the various 3rd gens)
Build/body number is the last 6 digits of your VIN

Hope this helps

Does it have white leather? sunroof? Bluetooth?

yeah mate all of the above why do you ask

thanks for the info ammerty the tj sedan looks awesome they really are the best looking magnas

GTL... mhmm I love these ones. Only a handful around, but the cream leather gets me everytime

Hay fordy
had the tj for a long time about 170klms when the 380s came out i knew i wanted one been keeping and eye out for the gtl for a while this one came up and i grabed it i love thw cream leather just got to keep the kids out the
dealer threw in a auto service timing belt kit and plug service and a new radiator they also agreed to have the work done by my choice of tradsmen all this for $8500 its got 163klm on it I contacted the servicer who confirmed that the timing belt hadn't been done. the radiator unfortunately had been neglected and the neck had corroded to the point thar the cap wont seal other wise it presents above average
she'll stay stock for now apart from the pioneer avic system going in this week and some shiney valve caps lo
I would like to know how many were sold
going to wash her now once i get the new plates I'll set up a photo and a bit of an introduction

Ah, sounds like it's getting the attention is deserves. These been a GTL for sale here in W.A since the first week of this year, guy has only lowered the price by $500 since he originally listed it. It's been in my CarSales feed since he listed it. What colour is the outside on yours?

I am pretty sure GTL was series 3 only......

Thanks mate its just odd its got a series 2 badge all the numbers check out is definitely a GTL Thank for the info

mine was on carsales also in Sydney its silver the only thing irritating me is yhe drivers seat has a bit of wear no cracks or tears just likr the cream dye has worn away and i will have to take the seatbelts off and clean them all part of owning a light coloured interior great looking TW its funny 380s and magnas you either love em or hate them me i love them

Andrew,
I had a small wear mark on the driver's seat of the Jag, which has "Ivory" leather which I guess is a very similar colour to the GTL leather.
I completely fixed it using Glyptone Scuffmaster Liquid Leather, see here: http://www.liquidleather.com/scuffs.htm
The kit isn't cheap, around $80 IIRC, but it's top quality stuff and really works.
One problem though - looking through their index of colours I see nothing for a Mitsu 380, let alone the cream leather. If you pop them an email they might be able to help.

Probably had some body work and the repairer got the wrong badge..easily fixed.

Thanks TreeAdeyMan
looks like the go, I figured a dye type product was what Id need you've saved me a lot of google time, its now on the list. My goal with the GTL is to slowly bring her back to as close to show room original condition as possible not that there's much wrong with her but being a bit OCD it will keep me busy for a fair while

Hopefully your rear window regulator's don't go!!

They seem to be a common issue with the 380.
