I bought this car in 2007, right when it was introduced (the CRDi version). What impressed me most was the engine. A superb performance.
I had always liked its styling. Probably the best of the lot.
The interiors are also pretty good. I like the stylign inside. And finish too is high quality.
That said, my personal experience with it, after using it for close to 2 years, is also beyond my expectations. GM being new in India, I had thought their service might not yet be as good as Maruti. But my experience was the opposite. Their 24X7 service is quite good. And I found that the particular service center I go to, tries to go out of its way to satisfy me.
Sitting behind teh wheel is simply a pleasure. But what surprised me was, being a driving enthusuiast, that the rear seat is even better! The seat angle, the leg room, all give a plush feel.
Yes I did miss the sun roof (not being offered at that time in Magnum) & the climate control. I was told this was done to keep the price competetive. But for me, the engine more than made up for these things. the breath taking acceleration is something I cant have enough of.
A very good car. Being a Chevrolet, makes it even better!
Good Style, superb engine, and above all, its a Chevrolet!No Sun roof, no climate control, no stereo control on steering
