- Join me as i take you on a Full Tour & Test Drive of this Renault Magnum from 2008, with it's 460hp straight 6 cylinder Diesel engine.
It all started back in 1990 when the Renault AE was launched (the name Magnum only represented a level of trim finish featured inside the cab) and it wasn't until some year's later that Renault decided to call the whole truck the Magnum.
This was my first time ever driving a Magnum too, so let's get it on the road and see how it performs.
Thanks for watching, Stavros

Nice truck. Lots of essential features, such as the egg holders.
for coins. but your comment was hillariuos.
Good old magnum, my dad had a 52 plate running to Gibraltar for years and never had a problem, he loved it!
Fun fact: this was the first European cabover truck that had a completely flat floor.
Or was it actros mp1 ? :D

Lovely machine🤘 Had one for 5 years and absolutely loved the beast. Was so sad to lose her though😥
Some says it's ugly but frankly I felt it's just look abit different than the rest. Personally I would say they did have a clever design with the cab interior and exterior, most importantly it has flat floor and I think the latter design even have a table and a passenger seat which can turn sideways. Overall it's a clever design.
So jealous you had a chance of driving a Magnum.
Last year I archieved my license and since August this year I finally started my career in trucking, I'm now on a DAF XF106.
Beautiful truck, absolutely love it but unfortunaley it means I will never have the chance anymore of driving the truck of my dreams, the Renault Magnum.
When they first came onto uk roads my kids were young and we always played a spot the Magnum game and it was surprising how many there were . Still great to see them 🇬🇧👍
Love these trucks I normally ask my dad every time he comes home have you seen a magnum I enjoy going magnum spotting
2:43 "3 steps to heaven" i have a bad feeling about this truck
As a Canadian truck driver with over 5 years experience, and having driven the vast majority of most 2000 and later American-style trucks, I'm finding it fascinating watching your videos and seeing how different things are "across the pond".
I've seen most of your videos on the newer trucks, but just watching the exterior walk-around on this one and it's striking how well-designed this truck is for driver accessibility to things like coolant, washer fluid and the dipstick, even some of the newest trucks in Europe, you still have to open panels on the "hood" to access these things, and if there's a bullbar, that needs to move too.
This is really smart design, and I really appreciate the amount of detail you put into your videos. Please keep up the hard work.
I have always liked the Renault Magnum, since the mid-1990s since seeing an owner-driver's one for Express Freight Services, in Essex, England. I loved the shape and look of it, especially the unique design of the steps and grab handles (I'm sure the transvestites in certain service stations around Europe have trouble climbing up in their high heels late at night after a few pints! 😂). The Magnum driver that I knew back then, Clive was his name, apparently used to sleep in his wellies in his cab. Rumour has it, that when he got back home on a Saturday afternoon after a week's tramping, his wife used to get him to undress in their front porch before letting him in the house because of the state he used to get into whilst on the road! 😂
I never knew that it was designed by the man who designed one of the cars that I love the most (apart from the Ferrari Testarossa), the Lamborghini Countach!
The 6 cylinder used on the renault magnum has such a lovely sound I really do love the sound of the engine
The legend magnum...
so glad you finaly took this legend of renault for a test drive, love it.
@@Tommymellett no it's Renault trucks
The truck of my dreams. Always the one I looked forward in ETS. Good times
I love all of Stavros' videos - but if I had to choose one.... This is my favourite!! I'm amazed at how truckers can drive the width and length of these vehicles on smaller roads!! Keep on trucking Stavros and all truck drivers that keep all nations moving!! 👍
Always remember the first time I drove a magnum . I thought it was tipping over . The cab suspension was awful . Made you take corners a lot slower ... Cracking vid as always .
Always liked the look of this wagon. Never had the pleasure of driving one but wouldn’t mind.
Marvelous truck, one of my favorites! Too bad that here in Brazil we don't see it.
Wow didnt expect you to actually find one to review! Nice :)
Hello from France, your good mood gives me a smile. Good video !
Thank you so much for reviewing the Magnum. Keep it up. :D
Renault engineering always has and will be the best
After seeing you drive through that town, now I can see why Europe and the UK have size restrictions with their trucks..I could just imagine driving an American truck with a 53ft trailer would be hell driving through narrow road towns like that lol..
Nice one, I always had a soft spot for the magnum but never got a chance to drive one
Getting down the truck i would fall down expecting the step to be right there 😂😂😅
Love the videos, love the Irish truck styling you guys really put alot of effort into making the fleet look good and unique. Unlike most British transport firms who have a fleet of white trucks with black trim. Gotta love the accent too!
Used to drive one on European. If you angled the steering right you can jump up and rummage in a locker on the other side of the cab whilst on the cruise control. Nice touch. We used to swap drivers while going along when double manning...
American truck driver here, I really wish our trucks had those fancy blinds like this magnum has. None of the American truck brands do anything like that as far as I know. They just have curtains on rails.
Your videos are so awesome and informative, nice camera angles too! Stay safe!
Great video, I’ve always wanted to drive one! I’m sure there are many faults with them, but they just look so cool!
Magnum is my favorite truck! Please make more videos with a magnum
I agree and the one with the mack v8
honestly im not a huge fan of reno but this video makes me wanna play ets2 and drive one great job stavros
Stavros, please do a review on a Volvo FH 12 from 2000. I love that truck from the gear shifter to the wheels and I love your videos... So you and a review on that Volvo would do my day.
6:52 two little things, are they for holding eggs? hahahahahaha epic
Drove these magnums for a good few years . Weird at first but loved it in the end
I can hear the sound of the turbo and the engine power is on another level
Oh, Fantastic The... the sound...omg GLORIOUS! Renault POWER!!!
As always pleasure to watch your videos. I was never fan of Renault Trucks but still enjoyed your video a lot. Please make video about Magnum with V8 engine if you can find.
.....when you wanna see and hear a AE Magnum with the Mack V8 EE9....take a look at my site;) We got a 1992 AE 500 and a 1996 AE 560, also straight piped;)
Thumbs up from Canada
Reanult was the inventor of Ad-blue, so it's normal to see a 2008 truck equipped with an Ad-blue system
Brilliant video mate, you are one of the best on CZcams just live your reviews.
Please keep em coming they are much appreciated.
Are there any 520 Eurostar’s in preservation in Ireland would love a review on one.
I used to drive a 470 version so would be nice to see one again.
Very good video staves thanks everyone will understand about truck rellery I love your video I never miss thank you God bless you stav
Ya know ya have a cool job, thanks for the videos, I really like 'em!! Trucker Mike from Kentucky
My favourite truck, even more so than the American trucks I see every day.
Honestly dont know how people hate this. This looks better than any Scania in my opinion. Sadly discontinued but at least they are still around since they have invincible Volvo engines in the ae magnum model and the first generation magnum with the mack v8
There was a few special editions like the Magum willams and the last was the legend..They would be good reviews
Nice one, Stav. Perfect Sunday morning viewing 👍
Try one with MACK engine in ... There was no better truck than premium 385 and this MACK v8 in renault family ... Thank you for bring me some good memories ;)
Wow. Good old memories. The firs one I ever drove was a 1994 with a square dash 420 HP. The flat floor was totally new thing back then. But I would take a IVECO Turbostar anytime over the Magnum. Great video ! Keep up the good work. Keep on trucking and be safe.
Renaul.magnum.he.is.beautiful.frentch.cabover.truck
Gotta say it, the best part was the Nokia on the dashboard jajaja
Great video again mate 👍I f you like or hate the Magnum/AE fact is that it is something special with that high flat floor cab. Stravos it would be great tho see a Volvo F12/16 in your video. I cant wait too see one in your show. Greetings from a big fan from holland.👍
Hey Stavros, nice video... Athough I always thought the Magnum's were one of the most confortable trucks ever made... Anyway's, personally, I love the design, they look so magnificent when you meet one of these in person.
What a amazing truck it is
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Магнум, это лучшее что было , есть , и будет!
Great video, thank you for making and shearing them.
Nice video thx for doing it i love the Magnum.
Your videos are perfect....when it comes to trucking, you are a guru, hands down!
.....He even remembers the transmission numbers..ZF16S2520....Excellent, keep up!
I do think this truck is cool. From the outside.
Glad to see you review the Renault Magnum - thank you!
The Mack V8-powered Renault AE must have been quite a machine!
Although I found the windscreen at 20:04 rather shocking...
Nice revieuw Stavros ,Butt the best option you forgoth to tell on the vieuwers ! open the sterringwheelcenter foldid in half , can ride your tacodisk on it. it a litle riddingtablet ! super option !!
Excellent video thank you so much!!!
From Dominican Republic.
Another great video Stavros. Keep em coming....
first of all the magnum is nice dont say its uncomforteble and the AE magnum doesnt just had 374hp and 500hp there are way more engines for magnum trucks and you shuld drive the Magnum Integral with 560 HP open pipe 👍(sorry for my English i am from Germany)
I've driven the 2013 version of the Magnum in ETS2. It's an underrated truck
I drive a Renault premium I find that they are good lorrys and have a easy to see out of cab
Put the plates on the first sold in Ireland Ae 500 was great leap in trucks was hard to beat that Mack v8 lovely truck to drive flat floor great video kelcro 😎😎
10:25 :O That starting sound
Sounds like a mack vision
Great video Stavros! Thank you very much!
The old Hino336, had the same entry point as the magnum cheers
Another good show stav.
Nice video stavros! Great job! 😉👏 greeting from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 😊
I have subscribed to you too...
Love the channel stavros
A real Marmite truck, I drove one for a couple of years, and it was a love hate relationship, living in the cab was OK, getting all your gear in at the start of a trip was hard work though.
I always used the top bunk, as it was wider, and loved the blinds, great if driving nights, as they blocked all the light in the day time.
Out of all the European semi trucks throughout the years, those Renault Magnums were my favorite looking trucks. Something about being able to see the cab n Chassis stacked on one another other being able to see that gap between them catches my eye lol the design as well looks badass as well don't get me wrong...But that Scania Longline with that American sized sleeper is a badass looking truck as well. There's not many of those LL's driving around Europe anymore are there?
Yes. Scania phased out T series bonet cab trucks from production. And there are very little of them now on the road. And Magnum was also replaced by T high series.
Really loved this video. I'd be very happy to see the Actros in another episode :)
Great video yet again
UP THE IRISH ☘️ !!
Best race in the world hands down
2008 it's practically an antique
I personally have never liked the appearance of Renault trucks with the exception of the T series. Nice video!
Love the vids mate....keep em coming!!
Amazing review like always! 👍👍
I like the look of this truck, why do they always discontinue nice trucks. All new trucks are too curvy.
Great as always,keep them coming.
Turbo sounds awesome
The Magnum is was sparked my interest in European trucks years ago...
I really do like the look of the Magnum from the outside......... the interior though oh no 🤦♂️
Great video, did you ever do a video of any Pegaso, I would love to see one of those.
Next video you should do a completely review about any truck you choose like talking about mirrors and grille and so on
Be nice if you could do a review of the old Leyland marathon, 1979 was the last time I was in one of them, and I was 2yr old then and my father took me every where in it..
Loving the Nokia.
The comfort thing is a built in safety feature ......the driver won’t fall asleep ....simples !
The AE and magnum were called the Dirty hands over here spain
Finally 🙏 love these trucks.
Hey stavros969, good video👍
Nice video, and i love POV...
Nice.truck
Awesome!
Greetings from India!🇮🇳
Memories. No one really liked it so I inherited the only magnum in the yard. Certainly different.
A positive of the magnum was the flat floor which meant it’s easier to fit the carpet
In Spain this truck is called harvester by the truckers.
Finally my 3rdfavourite truck
Beautiful lorries
