Hi guys,

I am soon to get a new Magna and I am about to go look at the above.

I just thought I would ask the advice of you guys for anything to look out for or any questions to ask.

1994 MITSUBISHI MAGNA EXECUTIVE TR
$3,800
4D SEDAN
Automatic
130,000 kms

Are the only details I have for you.

Thanks for your help

EDIT: By the way I am a noob when it comes to cars

130,000kms for that age is low so that's good.

If you dont know much about cars then I suggest getting it inspected before you buy.
Or if you know someone who can look at it for you get them to check these things out:

CV's (make sure there's no clunking when you turn)
No smoke at start up, or when taking off after idling for a while.
Magna's dont have rust problems that I know of..but check all the rust prone areas in all cars like around windows, rear tail lights, in doors etc.

Is it a V6 or a 4cyl?

Thanks for the reply.

CV's??????

It is a 4 cylinder, which I would prefer.

Thanks for the reply.

CV's??????

It is a 4 cylinder, which I would prefer.

The V6's are a bit stronger (not to mention more powerfull).

CV = Constant Velocity, CV joints allow your drive shafts to move in diferent angles while your wheels are turning and suspention is moving, while still providing drive to the wheels :D

do you prefer the 4 cylinder because of the fuel economy? If so, then I'd suggest you do look into the V6 models as well because the 4's are pretty much the fuel economy of a 6 (or worse).

Yeah in a few cases I've seen the 4's had worse economy than the 6's. I guess it's because they had to work harder to push the weight of the car.

Yeah. also the 4 cyl was a much older engine. i hate my 4cyl. They have a lot more problems than the V6's, or atleast mine does ;)

I have a carby model 2.6L and I use 11L / 100km and that's all city driving as well which is pretty damn good for a 2nd gen. That's a pretty good price there mate assuming it's an TR executive. Pity that's it's an auto as I'm assuming it's a 4 cylinder at that price.

DO NOT BUY THE 4 Cylinder.

I own one and to be honest the engine design is the biggest pule of crud.

The rest of the car is OK. Go the V6 auto or manual and you'll be laughing.

they arnt too bad engines, there are alot worse. but i wouldn't buy one !
