Hi all!

I am posting for the first time and also buying my first SUV. As I am stationend in Africa I am interested in tips and tricks when buying a roughly 15 years old Toyota Land Cruiser Prado SX 3.0 turbo or similar.

Anyone got any sound tips?


Thanks and can't wait to drive one home,
/Josman

Hi Josman.....i own a 96 landcruiser ll Station wagon in India.This is similar to the car you are talking about only it has a 2.8 non turbo diesel,which is great.

They are super reliable and great cars to drive.I guess the things you would need to check are for the usual wear on the tie rods,swivel heads and any clunking from the axles.If its a turbo you need to drive it and make sure the engine and turbo are in good health.Thats the only thing that could end up costing you some.
