The Appeal

It's fair to say that the Land Cruiser is the stuff of legend - perhaps one of the most sought-after off-roaders on the planet. By the time the millennium had come around, they had outsold Land Rover by about a million units, and were celebrating their 50th anniversary. Naturally, a half-century of any car is quite an achievement, and Toyota decided to mark the occasion with this magnificent anniversary edition.

Using the luxurious Land Cruiser Amazon as a base, the car was Toyota's first to use a DVD Navigation System, along with exclusive wooden trims, chrome-effect alloy wheels, exclusive badging and ivory leather upholstery. The result was one of the most desirable, luxurious and full-featured yet.

The vendor informs us that this Land Cruiser is in very good condition, both mechanically and aesthetically, with an eye for originality maintained throughout ownership. It's still carrying that DVD-nav system, is still running as well as ever it has, and it's still a fine, solid example. This rare limited edition is not to be missed!
