chubbs Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 It come to that time to sell the 4x4 as it's not getting the use that it was originally intented for - taking the dog out and a bit of lamping. (i've use it once off road) I bought the car about a year ago and during that time it has been an ultra reliable motor, capable of doing everything you would expect from a landcruiser. so the spec. 1996 model, with a private plate on, which will come with the car. metallic green over silver - long wheel base. - 8 Seats 3.0 Turbo Diesel engine - Auto transmission - Auto diff lock. Cat 1 alarm and immobiliser Central Locking Power Steering Alloy Wheels - with all matching tyres - all about 6mm - 7mm Towbar CD Player Overdrive and power buttons on the transmission electric ariel - mirrors Onboard Computer - Compass / Barometer / Temperature / inclonometer etc 12 months MOT 158000 showing on the clock, but this car is an import, so for the first 120,000 it was in Kilometres ( I have a letter from the previous owner of 4 years), about 65,000 miles, then the speedo was changed to MPH, so the cars done just over 100,000 miles. - Looks like it's done 20,000 though and drives like it too. The car bodywork is like new, there isn't a scratch or dint in sight, the car has recently had new suspension and polyflex bushes installed, so handles like a dream. Inside, the car is as clean as outside, with fabric interior. (I have waterproof seat covers that will come with the car) It's just had an Oil and Filter change when the MOT was done, so it's ready to go for another year. wanting £3350.00 ono for the car. Photo's will follow, but if you want any, then email me and i'll drop you some through. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caeser Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 You might be pleased to know that I don't think the car has done 100,000 miles. When the speedo is changed from kph to mph, the oddometer still records in kph. So the car has done 158,000 kilometers. 160,000 is 100,000 miles,so it has not yet done 100,000 miles. Best of luck with the sale, Toyota 4x4's are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casts_by_fly Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 what kind of fuel economy does it get? thanks, rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Really Depends on how you drive it, I reckon that it's doing about 24-26mpg generally, up on that if your doing a run. All the 4x4's are about the same with the diesel engines, it's the petrol ones that eat it.. I don't do a lot of miles, so if the car gets £20 a week in it, it'll be lucky. hope that helps.

caeser Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 what kind of fuel economy does it get? thanks, rick You would get 30 mpg easily on a run, as long as you don't have a lead right foot. At 100,000 miles the cars just about run in, so its probably better now than when it was new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
