1996 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ80 - 314k miles - fair condition - $3000.
I bought this many years through a salvage auction: it was a recovered theft. Never been in a wreck, but does have a salvage title because of the theft and insurance claim. It still drives fine, I just find I don't use it as much since I also have a newer Sequoia.
I never had any major problems. At one point, I replaced both the rear and front main seals due to an oil leak.
Known issues: (most of these didn't bother me...but I want to list everything I know)
Includes the Thule racks (bars and fairing if you want them), removable third row seats, upgraded stereo (with aux input) and speakers, Reese towing package, some Haynes / Chilton repair manuals, and an oil filter I won't need.

- Salvage Title
- Fairly high miles: 314,000.
- Small Oil leak under pressure - could be the pan, could be one of the main seals. I haven't traced it down.
- Both front seats power adjusters are either stripped or off track and don't adjust front to back. Recline and rest of functions work.
- Check engine light (O2 sensor) comes on.
- Small rips / wear in the leather seats.
- No rear gate lever (I use a leatherman!)
- Probably needs new plugs.
- Cracks in windshield.
- Paint on hood peeling off. (The front and drivers quarter panel were painted at one point and the clear coat is failing here. No rust, but will need attention.)
- Usual carpet stains / some headliner stains.
- AC Runs fine, but has a slow refrigerant leak. I have to charge it every summer.
- Front left bumper cap is missing.
- Missing back Land Cruiser emblem.
- Side view mirrors are loose (the mirror is self, not the mount...the mirror glass shakes a bit while driving.)
- Some marks on the front bumper, and running boards.
