2013 Costa Rican Ads for Landcruiser 70 series, HDJ78, Prado, Hilux, & 200's

[yjeff]

Here are some scanned 2013 70 series, HDJ78, Hilux, Prado, 200 series & more ads I picked up from a dealership in Liberia, Costa Rica last month. Please see the handwritten prices in USD (note: no negotiation by me to lower the amount). Also, only some factory options are listed as this is what they sell in Costa Rica. Hope you guys enjoy the LC porn.

Seriously, the prices in CR are too high, but I have found early 1990's Diesel 70 Troopies for $14k here. Northern Guatemala is 80% Toyota on the road with most being 70 series trucks. Forget the 25 yr EPA import, just drive to Mexico every 364 days and do a temporary permit...

PS - car parts in Costa Rica are 2X-3X more here and the Purdy Toyota in San Jose, CR wanted 20 days to get a sensor that I could special order in 2 days from Murf. They only told me it would take 20 days after I left it with them for 5, I really miss dealing with Camelback Toyota in person.

PSS - The ambulances & police rides are all HDJ78 or HZJ78's here and would make for a perfect overland build when they dump them every couple years.

Higher res image files will be on my blog shortly http://overlandtheworld.com

So do you live in Costa Rica or Arizona now? I'm coming to SAN Jose in June if you need something small. Mike

Jeff and his wife are doing a true expedition with their super built 80. They already went up far north into Alaska and now heading down to the tip of South America.

I occasionally check in to their website and blog to see how they are doing > http://www.overlandtheworld.com/

So, Eric, you CAN order up any of those for us, RIGHT?
