A mate of mine has a TP Magna which about 2 months ago the automatic gearbox died, giving him no forward or reverse gears. Me and another mate decided to lend him a hand in replacing the gearbox. Well after two attempts, the 3rd and final automatic gearbox finally gave up within the month of...

G'day Just stumbled onto this place in my search for information on putting extractors on my tp magna. I'm just wondering how far to go. I've always wanted the challenge of a car "project" but in all honesty I had never really considered my trustee old magna. Wondering if anyone else has...

When I bought my TP Magna new in 1991, I didn't have air-conditioning fitted as, although I could afford the car, I couldn't afford the extra for air-conditioning (which, if I recall correctly, was around $1,300). The car does, as you would expect, get very hot in the summer. Opening the...
For a couple of weeks now, the indicators on my TP Magna have developed an intermittent fault which, presumably, will only get worse if it is not attended to. Every now and then, instead of flashing, the indicator lights will just stay on. Sometimes they start flashing again after 20 or 30...
I was looking under the bonnet of my Magna (a TP Grand Tourer) yesterday - the reason being that the battery died on me - and I noticed that the car was listed as having accessories that were identified as having the following codes: E44, D45, A24 and V21. If only to satisfy my curiosity, can...
