The 100 Series Land Cruiser is legendary and a popular choice on our forum with recent examples including this 1998, 1999, and 2004. Back in 2022, I spent several months exploring the Dolomites in a beat-up example and it left a lasting impression. The owner of the Italian Cruiser, Matteo, said it best when he described it as a commercial truck parading as a family SUV. Every aspect of the build is heavy duty and designed to endure daily punishment whatever the climate or terrain, yet the interior enjoys climate controlled luxury. I experienced this firsthand as we trailed heavy vehicles up and down Italian mountain passes in 35°C+ heat in air-conditioned comfort. Further still, despite a hard life, Matteo shared that every electrical accessory still worked. Needless to say, it’s a desirable option for travel with no shortage of inspirational adventure-ready builds online, including stunning examples from OverlandTrax, Overlandtraum, and Expedition Overland. Cue today’s 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser (170,xxx miles), which showcases a wide array of premium upgrades.

From the Seller:
“I’ve owned this vehicle for 5 years and it has been very reliable for me. It has mostly been outside and while there is no rust, the paint is a bit dull. I have not been using the vehicle to its fullest potential and have been busy with work, making me realize that it is time to pass the Land Cruiser on to a new owner.”
