Here is the rundown. My girlfriend has wanted a 60 series since she was a child, about a few months ago that dream was becoming a reality. We searched for 3 months before deciding on this 1989. We had it fully inspected at a Toyota Dealer and it came back with a clean report and pulled the trigger and had it shipped here. It was a Georgia car since brand new, garage kept, and has a ton of records that reach very far back. Fast forward and the girl that lusted realizes she cant handle not having leather, IFS, sunroof etc.

1989 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62

275,000+ documented miles, original paint, engine and trans.

Completely Rust Free - Literally 0 rust.

Work we have done: Basically a freshen up.

- Valve Adjustment, air filter, PCV valve, spark plugs, oil change, front and rear diff fluid, transfer case fluid, drain and fill on trans with filter replacement and kickdown adjustment.

Immaculate service records down to oil changes, and more going back to 1990. Original bill of sales from dealer, factory car phone install agreement and tons of others. Rear main seal, front knucles, timing covers, oil changes, brakes, alternator etc etc etc.

Major work done in the past 30,000 -

Front knuckles fully rebuilt via Toyota dealer ($1497)

-Starter, radiator($396), brake pads, timing cover seal, and more

Receipts in the file from just the past 25,000 miles total= $9300

Cosmetics: Super clean inside and out. We looked at over 10 of these before deciding "Big Red" was the one. The paint appears to be all original with no signs of any prior accidents. It is the original Toyota Freeborn Red single stage paint. Body is completely rust free, and has no bondo or any other bodywork. All lines are straight. Chrome is in great shape as well as all glass and gaskets. Interior is in great shape with no major stains, and no odors. Carpet is in good shape with new all weather floor mats. Headliner is in excellent shape. Factory roof rack has no hidden rust and is in excellent shape. Undercarriage is clean and rust free.

Mechanics: This FJ is ready for that long road trip, or to go camping. Starts right up with no hesitation or drama. No smoke or choking. Accelerates perfectly, and shifts through all gears nicely, and the kickdown works under heavy accel. All electronics work, including all gauges and interior and exterior lights. Power locks, power windows, wipers all work perfect. Truck has cold A/C and hot heat. Truck never overheats or has any issues on long highway drives, or sitting in stop and go traffic at 101 degree temps (We sat in beach traffic this weekend for 45 minutes enjoying the A/C and stereo). Brakes are strong and true. Powersteering makes no groans, and does not leak. As mentioned above the truck will leave a drop of oil in a driveway if sitting, but never requires topping off, it is minimal. New tires with less than 5,000 miles. Truck is very much "turnkey" or drive it home ready.

Summary:

The good- Very clean inside and out, immaculate service records, shifts smooth, can go 70+mph

, cold A/C, tons of records, NO RUST, doesn't burn oil, never abused or offroaded, great stereo.

The bad- A few dings here and there, typical 62 seat tear on drivers side but was quoted $120 to fix, will leave a dime size oil drop if sitting, left rear window is off track.

(Car has been further detailed since pictured)

We have more pictures and youtube videos of the truck driving and more available for serious buyers.

We can assist buyer in shipping if they need.

Toyota Prius + gets refresh in UK, is it coming here?

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

Toyota has unveiled a mid-cycle refresh of its seven-passenger, UK-market Prius +, known here in the US as the five-passenger Prius V. The revised hybrid MPV now boasts looks inspired by Toyota's more aggressive compact stylings as seen on its new Yaris and Aygo - particularly in the redone front fascia.
The new LED headlights are the most obvious change, sporting a sharper style, while the vertical slats that bookend front fascia are much larger and deeper, and are now home to LED running lights. The lower grille is also newly enlarged and trimmed in black plastic. Changes out back are far less noticeable, with the biggest tweak being a new diffuser that's been integrated into the rear bumper.
The interior gets a light freshening, too, with fresh trimmings around the switchgear, as well as a new 4.2-inch TFT display in the center mounted instrument cluster. The latter includes a new "Eco Judge" function designed to help owners drive more efficiently through a point-based reward system.

Toyota investing $30 million in Indiana for more Highlander production

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Indiana seems like the place to be if you're looking for work in a car factory. In May, Subaru announced plans to invest $400 million in its Lafayette, Indiana plant, creating 900 new jobs in the process and increasing capacity to 300,000 units per year. Now, Toyota has announced plans to invest $30 million in its Princeton, Indiana plant, 170 miles south of the Subaru factory, which also builds the Camry.
Toyota's investment will create an additional 200 jobs and increase the factory's volume by 15,000 units. Toyota announced an investment in the plant in February of 2012 that bumped volume up from 300,000 to 350,000 units. Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana, as the Princeton facility is officially known, produces the recently revised Toyota Highlander, the Sequoia and the Sienna. It employs 4,500 people, and this announcement represents Toyota's tenth production increase in under two years.

Toyota GT86 GT4 racer is ready for UK competition

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

It's about time we saw someone cook up a legitimate race version of the delectable Toyota GT86, and now it looks as if GPRM has done just that. The Buckingham-based race engineering team has built the creation you see here, complete with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder boxer cooked up by Nicholson McLaren Engines. The team says the new mill delivers between 360 and 400 horsepower to the rear wheels depending on final testing, which is a sight bit more than the 197 horses the naturally aspirated stock mill offers.
The car will compete in GT4 events, including the Avon Tyres British GT Championship. Technically, the GPRM effort isn't factory backed, but the team says the effort "has the blessing of Toyota Great Britain." How could it not? You can check out the brief press release below below, and be sure to take a closer look at the machine in our gallery.
