Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum and was hoping to get some insight on purchasing my very first landcruiser/lx470.
I found one for a very good price compared to what others are being sold for but wanted to know if it’s worth taking the chance on it. It has 265,000 miles, the paint is peeling, there is some minor rust spots on driver side door and driver side wheel arch. The interior needs a good cleaning. The guy selling it doesn’t know the Maintainence history on it but says car is fine. From the pictures, doesn’t seem to be any rust on the undercarriage. I was hoping to go see it in person next week but would like your thoughts on this? Anything I should watch out for or make sure to test/check? Will it need timing belt replacement soon? Thanks for your help!!
