Land Cruiser LC 70 series GXL Wagon

Hi Phil, What do you want to do with it..? They are the perfect hardy reliable 4WD suitable as a workhorse. I think from a value perspective they are worth the money albeit in 1-2 years you are going to see some affordable used models on the market. In their space I think it's safe to say they really don't have any specific competition unless you cross over to family based 4WD wagons that are classified softer versions for want of a better word.

Try and do an archive search for 76 series Landcruiser.
There has been quite a few posts on them already.

Order one now if you want it this year, friends ordered one back in October, being built in April possibly for delivery may/june?

I am very happy with mine, but have only had it for 2 weeks.
It is a GXL and has Diff locks, cargo barrier, cruise control, TJM bullbar, Ox Hydraulic winch, Aux. Battery, Rally 400 lights, Icom UHF, Codan 9323, 240 v inverter, Unisolar Panels and regulator on ARB roof rack. I am still waiting on the Longranger 165l tank. They tell me it may be 8 to 10 weeks. So far fuel consumption seems a little better than my 3 litre patrol, but time will tell.
I have not towed my Kimberley Kamper with it yet, but expect it to do it quite easy.
In my opinion it will be a very competent 4wd and I am willing to forsake some of the creature comforts to have a front end that does not need a wheel alignment avery 10 000klm.

Front wheel track 80 to 120mm wider than the rear axle. (Some reports of handling issues) Only 90L fuel tank. Short rear leaf springs. Cargo area 100mm narrower & 130mm shorter than an 80 series.(similar to 90 series Prado) Short rear leg room, centre seat not formed and only lap seatbelt. All seats lack comfort or support. Dash out of an 84 Cruiser tray. Tacky centre console, no cup holders or any modern safety features. (Air bags etc.)
On the plus side it comes standard with a snorkel, excellent lights & an engine perfect for mountain driving or towing.
At 60K it's over priced particually when it needs so many assesories that other cars come standard with but thats to be expected from a stopgap car thats built from the Toyota parts bin.
Cheers Craig.........

I ordered mine in Sept. last year and took delivery on Feb 1 this year.
I think there would be a lot more on the road if it weren't for the pathetically slow delivery time.
I can say that I think the wait has been worth it.
