Significant recent mechanical work including new clutch, brakes, and tyres
MOT valid until August 2027
The Appeal
The BJ71 is among the most coveted variants of Toyota's legendary Land Cruiser lineage. Built for some of the most severe terrain in the world, these heavy-duty wagons have gained a well-deserved reputation for their bulletproof nature, ideal for clambering up hillsides like a mountain goat. The car's 13B-T direct-injection turbocharged diesel engine is particularly respected thanks to its utilitarian, practically industrial solidity.
This particular BJ71 was imported from Japan by Just Jap Imports in Nuneaton and has had just one previous registered keeper. It has benefited from significant mechanical investment both before and after delivery, and the underside has been professionally treated with Bilt Hamber underseal.
Boasting a current MOT, a 2WD/4WD transfer case with low range and front diff lock, and a thorough list of recent work, this Land Cruiser is a highly desirable, lesser-spotted all-terrain vehicle at its best. We're sure it'll garner plenty of interest at auction. image.png1.44 MB
