Every Magus is expertly crafted using three core elements: fiber, steel and leather. Designed to work in harmony with its construction materials, natural properties are respected to deliver a higher quality of vehicle. By pushing the boundaries of how long-established techniques can be applied, each magus car celebrates traditional manufacture while embracing modern design.
In our Research and Design department develop new vehicles from conception to production. Designed for efficient manufacture, the charms of a hand made car are retained.
Global standards and approval requirements impose great challenges upon the design of new vehicles. Design efficiency is enhanced with industry-standard technology and software. Each new vehicle is exposed to rigorous digital simulation and extensive physical testing.
The engineers and designers at Magus work closely with our dealers and customers.
Magus production starts in the chassis shop. Each platform is carefully hand-assembled by our expert technicians.Engine, gearbox and package configurations are defined around a lightweight, high-performance structure. Each rolling chassis then undergoes a rigorous series of electrical, engine and quality tests before the addition of bodywork.
Working with lightweight steel the highly-skilled craftsmen in the tin shop fuse traditional techniques with ultra-modern processes. This achieves the free-flowing panels that adorn the body of each Magus. Rolled edges and hand-stamped louvres meet superformed wings and laser-cut panels in a charming marriage of craft and technology.
Once complete, the ‘body in white’ is metal-finished and rolled into the paint-preparation shop. Surface specialists then undertake a multistage process to further refine the hand-beaten metal panels. Prepared to immaculate standards we ensure the highest quality of finish.
The latest methods of automotive painting are used to ensure that the finish of every Magus car is as stunning as the design itself. A vibrant array of painted wings and body panels adorn the walls of the paint shop, each one selected by a customer . After preparation, each car is hand sprayed in an air tight booth to ensure that paintwork is free of imperfections and consistent throughout each of the panels.
The cockpit of a Magus offers a delight for the senses. Each of our cars requires at least four hides of the finest leather to trim, a task that takes our craftsmen over 50 hours to complete. We offer a full spectrum of leather colours and a wide variety of finishing touches. Natural aniline leathers exude the texture and quality needed to align with the highest standards of craftsmanship.
Following a rigorous road testing process each car is brought into the final stage of production – PDI (pre delivery inspection). Nestled within the light booth, a team of experts inspect every panel under natural light evaluation strips. The vehicle goes through a 3 stage polishing process resulting in a flawless finish. Interior is cleaned and all finishings polished to ensure the final product is delivered in immaculate condition.
