I am looking at buying my first Magna (second hand).

I am new to Magnas.

I am told by the car salesman that it is a 1999 Magna Profile.
I go to Redbook and look at these forums but dont see that model. I am trying to find details on it and a recommended price.

It seemed to have electric driver seat. If anyone can give me further info and what to look for I will go and have another look tonight and repost.

It is a 3.5 L V6.

Thanking you.

If it had an electric drivers seat then it will most likey be a verada - although its hard to know without seeing it :)
i dont think any of them came out with leccy seat cept for the verada!?
Then if the seats were cloth it should be an EI. otherwise if it had leather seats then it would most likely be a Verada XI.
The headlights should also give it away - if they are the multi parabolic ones (the ones with the black rings around the lights) then it a verada, otherwise if its a normal one it wont have those lights.

It could have been a special Dealer optioned car?
ie Like the TJ LE (they have the VRX body kit, leather, SA 5 speed, and Parabola Lights, with mags...)
So maybe it was a special order that is now FS!
How much are they asking?
You could look at the compliance plate and the VIN number will tell you alot about which model it is.
Also is it a Manual or a 5 speed SA?
Haydn

SA= Semi Auto

Got the VIN number but how do I check / what do I check against?
Looked like a straight auto.

It had Executive on it but also Profile 3.5

mmm.. interesting. an Exec with Electric seats? :?

perhaps it is a dealer custom job :-k

you reckon you could get pics?

Will try.

The car has heavy tiniting.

Can post piccies of outside the car no probs.

With the VIN number, what do I compare it against to check the model?

hmm if it is badged as an exec then it is prolly an exec with dealer mods

does it have:

electric arial
electric windows,
ABS
Airbags

who cares though - if it is a manual then grab it!

Manual

who cares though - if it is a manual then grab it!



he already said its an auto, manual :lol: :roll:

What is the first 10 digits of the VIN?
Haydn

VIN is

6MMTH8D( or P?)42XT

Hope this helps

Well it aint a Verada...
What kind of Auto is it?
does it have a semi Auto or a inline auto?
Ok My cars VIN is 6MMTH8S42XT
I wonder if S is for Sports...
Therefore maybe your P is for Profile :D
If it is a D maybe a Diamante :D :D

I wish it came with the VRX Kit!!!

It comes with leather, electric windows, 4 speed SA, color-coded everything, 16" alloys, 1 piece parabolic lights, and fog lights. I don;t think I've missed anything!

Sounds like a dealer job...
Not that there is anything wrong with that...
If the price is right then it is a great buy..
It has everything Id want in a car... except Angelina Jolie :D

Haydn

You can always add your booby kit later, to make it a car that "everyone" will stare at. :D
