buying

So I have found a 1994 green triple locked truck. Check engine light is on, didn’t get a code. Speedo isn’t working. Underside is what. I really want advice on. Axles and frame have been painted. Seem solid. biggest issue is when I engage the lockers the dash light just keeps blinking. They...

Hey guys, I'm not nearly as well read on the 100 series but I checked this guy out today for my teenage sons. 238k on the clock, 17 clean pages of carfax reports. Not nearly as much rust as Ive seen on other 100's. Drove great, and every single button worked. Needs new struts for the hood and a...

Hi, found a 1992 FJ80 center locked that's semi local for sale. 198K miles for just under 6K. I've heard the 91-92 years are not as desirable as the later years but curious to know if this is worth checking out based on year / miles. Anything specific with this model that I should look for?

It’s at a Toyota dealership and appears to have been at least minimally serviced with brakes and fluids. Appears to be rust free. Year is 2008. $17k I have an 06 LX470 I bought with 215k, so I’m not exactly scared of the miles and maybe only drive 6k miles a year. So id probably drive it for...

Thanks all in advance. I am looking at possibly purchasing a 1990 F62. What things should I be looking at. Body looks mint. I haven't seen it in person yet. It has 222k miles. Obviously can't be exact but what do you think a reasonable price for a no rust, nice paint, mechanically sound...

As the thread title states, I'm looking at a 99' LC with 280k miles. Lived in warm/dry climate its entire life, mechanic owned. Everything looks really well sorted, but I'm honestly totally a newb when it comes to these LC's. All I know is my research has taught me these are the Kings of the SUV...

I'm looking for a 2020 GX460, and had some questions and hoping to get some opinions on those that have experience. Background - I have been driving a 2000 Landcruiser for the last 22 years - it has been great, but showing its age and I'm ready for something newer. My wife has been driving a...

Hello all, hope this post isn’t too annoying to see on here all the time! I’m new to off-roading in general, close to pulling the trigger on a 1999 Lexus LX470. Truck has 150k miles, clean title, timing belt done at 100k. Owner is asking 13k, hoping to get it for 10-11. I understand that’s a bit...

I'm a few borders south of the border visiting for a few months, and I've started looking at classifieds at classic Land Cruisers to drive back north. Unfortunately I don't know enough about them to make sure I don't waste money. I was looking at one project to start with, a pickup. Ad says...

Looking at FJ40's lately. Been scrolling through the build and tech threads to try to gain some knowledge. Just in the last month, reading through some threads, I'm already noticing things on some online listings which I had no idea about before I found this site. My price point is pretty...

Hello! First post here so hopefully not doing it all wrong or breaking any forum rules/etiquette... I'm thinking of buying an LC 100, year 2000, with 185k miles for $6,400, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know what's too much undercarriage rust (or even if it's just normal rust). The body...

Like the title says, I've owned plenty of 3rd gen 4runners and I'm ready to step into a LC or an LX. I want to stay under 150K miles and I have it narrowed down to a 2006 Land Cruiser with 137K for $25K or a 2015 LX with 120K for $36K. Both vehicles are single family, clean history with a full...

I'm needed some help trying to find the right car on a second hand market. - what kms do I look for? - what type do I look for? - what other general things do I look for? Price range is around $13000 aud and would probably push $15000 aud I'm new here and want to go bush.

If you are like me, you watch every Land Cruiser sales site and auction obsessively, whether it's purely to dream, keep up with market trends or in search of a good deal. Or maybe you are at the beginning of your Cruiserhead journey and casually considering purchasing one of these amazing...

I am looking at buying a 2005 Land Cruiser 100 that is just below 150 000 miles. All service done at Toyota. Since I am unable to inspect the vehicle on site the dealer agreed to film a few clips. The dealer filmed a 5-minute-long clip of the frame, body and engine bay to show the amount of...

I’m a 80 series guy but Ive been looking for a cruiser for my parents to take on trips with me and my other Toyota buddies. My best friend found this 100 series on marketplace so I decided to go take a look at it. We checked it out, drove it and ended up making a deal with the seller. The...

Hello all! I've been lurking on the forum for a bit now and went to look at my first 100 Series today. Its a 2000, black with 151k miles. I can definitely see why they have such a fantastic following! I drove the LC and immediately fell in love. However, the one I looked at has spent most of its...

Hey All, I previously had a 94 that I loved but totaled it on the way to deer camp a few years back. Been in a Tacoma since, but came upon a 92 near me that i am going to try to buy. I worked on the 94 enough to be pretty familiar with it. Are there major differences between the two years...
