Year:1980 Mileage:90000

Van Alstyne, Texas, United States

I am selling my Toyota Land Cruiser BJ73 ,this is a medium wheelbase 70 series cruiser with the removable FRP Hard top.It is a 1986 with only 140K Kilometers wich is only 90K miles on it's very robust 3B diesel motor and H55 5 speed manual transmission.To top this off it even comes with the rear Full Floater axle with a Factory OEM limited slip differential.I imported this truck from Belgium myself and have it already registered and titled so it comes with a clean and clear Texas title.......not like the other imports where you have to run around for the paperwork!The 70 series are the successor from the early FJ40 series and are still produced new today for all the hostile terrains all over the world....just not for the US :(

I have put around 8K miles on it and it is mecanicly perfect,the body has been repainted and there are some spots that have some bubbles under the paint.It is not a show car but a very nice driving Cruiser,I am not trying to get a premium for it but I am not gonna give it away neither,the low miles 3B and H55 and the FF floateraxles are hard to find a Left hand drive diesel Landcruiser with only 90K miles on it usualy ends up in the high teens low twenties this one will sell with no reserve.The heater control is missing one of the knobs but I have a complete Hvac control that will go with it.The windshield frame has some rust on the inside wich is fairly common with the 70 series,I am going to Europe next month and can bring a new Fiberglass replacement with me that will never need replacing again for the new owner if necessary.It is definetly not perfect but the ideal platform for someone looking for a nice Cruiser to prepare for wheeling or an overland travel,the money you save on purchase will get you some new options to install ;-)

So if you want to own a Diesel Land Cruiser that you can drive anywhere and do anything with it then this is your truck,if you wheel it and leave a pinstripe at the side .....it's not the end of the world ;-)

It has 4 new BF Goodridge tires and I will do a maintenance on it before I sell it,I have more then one diesel Landcruiser and have all filters and fluids in stock (they are available at Napa,O'reilly and so on)so it will be ready for the new owner to just enjoy it without doing anything to it.


It is listed as a 1980 on Ebay because Ebay does not recognize Vin's from imports,but will do this if it is before 1981.But the Cruiser is a 1986

It is also for sale local and I keep the right to end this listing early if it sells local.
 

Thanks for looking

Joe

Toyota Camry incentives and fleet sales cranked to keep sales crown, insiders worried

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

We've been watching for some time now as Toyota has piled more incentives on the hood of its Camry sedan, and Automotive News reports that the we're not the only ones with raised eyebrows. The current Camry hasn't even been on the market for two years, but the family sedan segment is more hotly contested than it has been in years. It's that high level of competition that has led the automaker to uncharacteristically add more money on the hood in order to assure it maintains its long-held title of America's Best-Selling Car, a mantle it has owned for a dozen years. It's ramping up fleet sales, too.
According to the analysts at TrueCar, Toyota has bumped incentives per unit every month this year, now totaling some $2,750 as of May, a 38-percent hike over this time last year. That's more spiff money than the segment's other best sellers, the Nissan Altima ($2,400), Ford Fusion ($2,300) and Honda Accord ($1,400), all of whom have actually decreased their incentive spend by 20- to 40-percent over the same period.
The ramp up in incentive spending and fleet sales has analysts concerned that Toyota will tarnish the Camry's historically sterling resale value. ALG pegs the 2013 Camry's current 36-month residual value at 54.4 percent, well ahead of the segment average's 50.9 percent (but shy of the Accord's 55.6 percent). However, analysts are concerned that as the current generation ages, their resale values will eventually plummet if incentives continue to increase as Toyota looks to keep the Camry's best-selling car crown going forward.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.

Toyota Me.We concept is a multifunction Tupperware car [w/video]

Wed, 24 Apr 2013

Not to be outdone by the Renault Twin'Z concept penned by Welsh designer Ross Lovegrove, Toyota has partnered up with French designer Jean-Marie Massaud to create the 2013 Toyota Me.We Concept. Unveiled at Le Rendez-vous Toyota in Paris, the Me.We Concept is an attempt to imagine a car that can be appreciated by owners across a wide variety of lifestyles while being courteous to the environment, too.
From a "Me" perspective, the concept is highly customizable with removable body panels, and even though it might look like just a small hatchback from the outside, Toyota claims it can also be used as a pickup (with an extendable rear panel), a convertible (with a neoprene roof panel) and even an off-road vehicle. As for the "We" part of the car, it's a fully electric vehicle with individual in-wheel motors and a battery pack mounted under the load floor. The concept has a weight of around 1,600 pounds kept low thanks to an aluminum chassis, but it also features renewable bamboo wood for the floor in addition to the fully recyclable polypropylene exterior body panels.
