1988 Toyota Land Cruiser VX Description

This beauty was imported with 74,000KM in October, 2005. For the past 12 years and 170,000 KM it has has been my everyday driver, enjoying all sorts of time on the road, paved or otherwise, rain or snow . I have done my best and never sacrificed quality or necessity for cost, when maintaining this vehicle.


The truck was just in for it's regular service and I had some belts and the rear bushings replaced. I have service records. This truck is strong and torquey and has many miles ahead of it.

Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. Yeah its not a left hand drive, but I have felt very safe behind the wheel and don't feel at a disadvantage at all. In some situations I actually prefer the RHD. I will always remember my first drive bringing it home and being surprised by how nimble and fun to drive this truck is. The field of vision from the driver’s seat is impeccable.


Simple, Durable but with some comforts such as power windows/moon roof/COLD AC/Winch/Lockers/Bullet Proof Engine/Reliable


This beauty has a strong heart and will take you places. This is a rare truck and selling him is a serious case of ‘it’s not you - it’s me’.
