1999 TOYOTA LANDCRUISER 100 SERIES
THE KING OF THE ROAD. THE TERROR OF THE TOWN. THE VEHICLE YOUR MECHANIC SECRETLY HOPES YOU BUY!
Forget your fancy new SUVs with 47 computers, touchscreens bigger than your television, and enough electronic sensors to launch a NASA rocket.
THIS is a proper Toyota LandCruiser 100 Series!
A legendary piece of Japanese engineering built back when cars were designed to last longer than your marriage, your mortgage, and your children's interest in talking to you.
The 100 Series LandCruiser isn't just a vehicle. It's a lifestyle choice. It's a statement. It's a rolling declaration that you have absolutely no interest in impressing people at the golf club car park.
WHY BUY THIS BEAUTY
ICONIC LANDCRUISER DNA - These things have earned a reputation for toughness that most modern SUVs can only dream about while sitting in the dealership showroom.
' BUILT LIKE A BRICK OUTHOUSE - Solid, commanding and ready for whatever life throws at it. Potholes' No worries. Gravel roads' Bring it on. A driveway steeper than your mother-in-law's expectations' Let's talk!
PROPER 4WD CREDENTIALS - This is a LandCruiser, not a city shopping trolley wearing hiking boots. Whether you're heading to the bach, exploring the countryside or simply wanting to look like you know what you're doing at the boat ramp, this thing has the right attitude.
OLD-SCHOOL COOL - No ridiculous subscription fees to unlock your heated cup holders. No giant iPad glued to the dashboard. Just a proper vehicle with real presence and a reputation that speaks for itself.
ROOM FOR THE FAMILY AND THEIR EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE - Load up the kids, the camping gear, the fishing rods, the dog and half of Mitre 10. This big beast was built for people who actually DO things.
LET'S TALK COMPETITORS!
A Nissan Patrol- A worthy rival, although its owner will probably spend the entire weekend explaining why it's better.
A Mitsubishi Pajero- A respectable effort, but the LandCruiser owner has already left for the hunting trip.
A modern soft-roader SUV' Lovely vehicle. Just don't ask it to do anything more adventurous than park on a slightly damp lawn.
The LandCruiser 100 Series has earned its place in Kiwi motoring folklore. You don't buy one because you want to blend in. You buy one because you want to arrive looking like you could tow a house out of a swamp.
WHO IS THIS VEHICLE FOR'
The fisherman. The hunter. The camper. The weekend explorer. The family that likes getting off the beaten track. The bloke who owns more fishing rods than pairs of shoes.
And anyone who's ever looked at a brand-new SUV with a $90,000 price tag and thought, "You've got to be kidding me!"
A FRIENDLY WARNING: This is a 1999 vehicle, not a brand-new luxury SUV with that new-car smell and a warranty booklet thicker than the Bible. It's a classic, old-school LandCruiser, and condition, maintenance and history matter. Come and inspect it, take it for a drive, and decide for yourself.
THE BOTTOM LINE
The Toyota LandCruiser 100 Series is an icon for a reason. Big, tough, practical and dripping with old-school character.
You could buy something modern, complicated and expensive.
Or you could buy a LandCruiser and spend your weekends doing what you actually bought a 4WD to do!
