Well ladies and gentleman, the age of beige is over... for those unaware, ive been crusing around the mean street of penrith for 3 years an in old 1986 KC Ford Laser Hatchback, twas called the "Beige Bomber", the fan and air con didnt work, the car had rust, the engine was going to go at any moment, the wheel came off, the fuel pump was leaking along with several oil lines... all in all it was a steaming pile of sh*te, but one that got me through some very fun years... but i finally got rid of the old girl and up-graded to a 2000 Mitsibitshi Magna Advance, gold is its colour, has all the features my old car never dreamed of having

so here it is people:

actually furrycat, its not too much differnt to my laser, which was in dire need of a tune up and a new fuel pump, for 30 bucks i got about 300kms in that, in my current car, i get about 300kms for $40 in the Magna

Magna's are good cars. The old man used to drive one around back in the early 90s. Apparently they have some serious oil leak issues but we didnt encounter anything of that nature...

MC84, my car made mate said the same thing but it was with older model Magnas, he said by 2000, they had it all sorted well and truely

Dilmah, its a 2000 model, Magna Advanced - 3.5L
fuel economy isnt too bad in comparrison to my old car
the dash display tells me im averaging 12.3 letres per 100kms, im not sure if thats good or not tbh, but im only spending 10 bucks more a week on petrol then i was before, and thats not catering for the extra driving ive done to show people
