Description
This Toyota Land Cruiser has the charm of a vehicle that’s just rolled out of granddad’s garage! Honest, straight, and running like a dream, it’s a true testament to proper care and maintenance. Every vehicle has a story to tell, and when you inspect and drive this FJ40, it’s clear that it’s always been cherished. Recently, it’s undergone a significant mechanical refresh, and the bodywork remains impressively straight and clean. The trims are all genuine, and the driveline delivers a seamless, reliable ride.
A vehicle this special deserves the best, which is why a comprehensive servicing has just been completed. The new owner will be the first to enjoy the benefits of this extensive work. See below for a summary of what’s been done, and don’t hesitate to get in touch for a detailed chat.
The 40 Series Land Cruiser is one of Toyota’s most iconic models, and its strong following continues to drive demand—and prices—higher. This Toyota FJ40 is not just a car; it’s an investment into classic motoring. With ease of servicing and affordable parts, it’s a joy to own and drive.
Adding to its charm, this is a historic vehicle, meaning it’s MOT, ULEZ, and road tax exempt—making ownership effortless. It will be sold registered, with a recent MOT and the physical V5C for easy transfer of ownership.
