This belongs to a good friend of mine.
“This Landcruiser has been fully prepared to a high standard for extreme off-roading in remote environments. It has been built to reflect it’s role as a support vehicle accompanying motorbike expeditions in the Sahara amongst other places in N.Africa.
No expense has been spared in kitting out and maintaining the vehicle, only original parts and the best aftermarket parts used. We purchased the vehicle to be our family’s main mode of transport when we emigrated to Southern Africa however due to economic reasons we decided to come back after 6 months and luckily decided to delay shipping the vehicle. Now we’re back it’s time that it moved on and is used for the purpose it was built for.
The Landcruiser drives really well, benefitting from a Dastek 30HP chip which increases power and delivers an extra 43Lbft of torque enabling it to do a bit more than just keeping up with traffic even when fully loaded. Even though the vehicle is significantly higher than a standard LC4 due to the 30mm spacers the vehicle feels nicely planted on the road even in windy conditions and when off road there is no lurching from side to side on uneven ground when travelling at speed.
There are no dents or scratches to any body panel and overall condition is excellent.”

Vehicle serviced at regular intervals as per manufacturer schedule with full service book and two original keys. Last serviced by Frogs Island 4×4 in Oxfordshire (who also undertook most of the work undertaken in the above list) last autumn. The vehicle has been dry stored in my barn all 2014 until recently to prepare for this sale. It will come with a full MOT but no tax as it is still SORN.
Notable replacement parts include new fuel pump and all new injectors, new turbo charger and front and rear brake calipers and pads replaced. Also, all receipts and paperwork are present for every upgrade and modification done in the above list.
In short this vehicle is ready to go overlanding and deserves to be owned and used by someone who appreciates the amount of work done and why it has been done!
The vehicle is located in Scotland and is Yours for £12,500
