This is a very solid very dependable all original Landcruiser.  I have owned it for 5 years and always kept it in the garage and took the best care I could for it.  It can be a daily driver.  The previous owner had it in a couple of car shows - but I do not have details.  There are some rust spots but only on the surface - it has seen some rain in it's days.  All seals around the doors are in excellent condition.  All windows work.  No chips in glass.  Doors lock.  Original keys and manual.  I hate to let this go, but I have to get my garage back.  No accidents and no bodywork that I know of - all solid metal and no dents.

 

It has only been in Wisconsin for 5 years and never driven in winter.  Always kept in garage.  Small patches (dime size) in a about 10 places.  New paint about 10 years ago - starting to fade in some areas but professionally done.  Runs strong and drives excellent.  Does leak oil in 2 places around transmission but only little spots.  No radio, but there is a place for one.  Does not burn any oil.  All original - no aftermarket anything.  Rare near perfect solid FJ-40.  All complete, nothing missing.  Comes with original manual and jack.  I bought it 5 years ago off ebay for over $10k and there were 3 bids competing with me until the end.  I have put about 20k miles on it driving my kids around during the summer months.  The odometer does not work - all other instrumentation does including wipers, interior light, heaters, vents, lighter, all exterior lights.  I do not think the wiper washer fluid works, but all the parts are there.  No emissions equiptment in this cruiser.

See my terms for payment.  Shipping by car carrier is around $600 in continential US and takes about 3 weeks.  I will help with shipping (availible for the load) on my end but you must coordinate setting up with carrier.

Toyota launches updated Verso-S in Europe

Wed, 14 May 2014

Globally, the Toyota Yaris has bred more variants than we can shake a stick at. It's been known in different markets as the Vitz, the Platz, the Bella, the Vios and, to us, as the Echo. The first-generation model bred a small cargo van called the Yaris Verso - a mini minivan riding on the shortest wheelbase in its class - which was renamed the Verso-S for Europe and alternatively known as the Space Verso, the Ractis, the Ractis Verso and even the Subaru Trezia in certain markets. And now Toyota has launched a revised version of its Verso-S in Europe.
Arriving as a mid-life facelift after three years on the market, the new Toyota Verso-S has been reinterpreted through the "Keen Look" design language that's been distinguishing the latest generation of Toyotas, particularly in the European market. That means new projector-beam headlights and LED daytime running lights, a reshaped grille with chrome surround, more LEDs around back, a fresh set of 16-inch alloys and new color options.
The interior has likewise been spruced up with new trim and color choices, as well as a tire pressure monitor fitted as standard. There's a new touchscreen display with more connectivity options, upgraded nav and a rearview camera as well. Since Toyota's made no mention of engine upgrades, until we hear back, we have to assume the 1.3-liter inline-four and 1.4-liter diesel engines carry over unchanged with the buyer's choice of either a six-speed manual or continuously variable transmission.

Toyota casts off in Ponam-31 motor yacht [w/video]

Sun, 12 Oct 2014

Some Japanese automakers focus purely on cars, while others dabble in all sorts of motorized transportation. Honda, for example, makes everything from motorbikes to jet aircraft. But while Toyota may be known principally for automobiles, it also makes a line of boats. And this is the latest.
The new Toyota Ponam-31 motor yacht is built around an aluminum hull with a flybridge and cockpit rear deck layout, similar to the Carver 32 on which this writer spent his childhood summers. It measures 31 feet overall and is powered by a pair of 3.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engines derived from the Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX 460) but marinized for nautical application. Toyota has even equipped its new Sports Utility Cruiser with such features as Drive Assist and a Virtual Anchor System.
Toyota expects to sell around 15 units of the Ponam-31 through its network of 49 dealers across Japan, with prices starting at 29,700,000 yen (about $27,500 at today's conversion rates). Scroll down below for a video, along with a press release, meant to show potential customers what's waiting for them.

Toyota recounts past Supra glories

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

It could just be a slow start to the news week around the Toyota offices, but its UK blog has posted a brief history on its legendary Supra sports car. Read into however you'd like, but there has been plenty of speculation as to the return of the Supra nameplate in recent years (including last month from incoming Toyota chairman Takeshi Uchiyamada).
Built from April 1978 through July 2002, Toyota's sports coupe made quite a name for itself as both the Celica Supra (shown above) and the Supra, and the blog post charts many of the changes and highlights through the years. Head on over to the Toyota UK blog to read more about this Supra's history, and then be sure to check out the gallery of images from Toyota spanning all four generations.
