VEHICLE HIGHLIGHTS
This 2023 Toyota Land Cruiser with 51,199 km on the clock presents as a low‑km example of the 79 series double cab, offered as a manual diesel and flagged on Auto.co.za as competitively priced against similar listings. It seats five and retains the hard‑wearing ladder‑frame character buyers of this model expect.
Under the bonnet is the 4.5 D‑4D V8 diesel (205 hp) paired to a manual gearbox and full‑time 4WD, with a claimed economy of 11.9 L/100 km — useful numbers for buyers balancing towing, touring and long‑distance gravel work in a rugged bakkie. The drivetrain and engine make it well suited to heavy loads and extended trips.

Toyota Land Cruiser
Land Cruiser buyers in South Africa aren’t your average tyre-kickers. They know exactly what they want and why they need it. This is the home turf for proper off-roaders and bakkies that actually work for a living, not just mall-crawlers. Sure, you’ll see names like Ford Ranger Raptor, Mercedes-Benz G-Class, and Nissan Patrol pop up in the same breath, but none really tick all the same boxes as the Cruiser. Diesel’s king here for obvious reasons — the 4.5D V8 is everywhere, especially in the 70-series, with a smattering of stubborn old petrols still hanging on. Transmission? Pick your poison: manual, auto, even the odd dual-clutch depending on which era or body shape you find. Not a single new Land Cruiser listed right now, just 18 used ones spanning R339,900 to a walloping R1,629,995. Median price? R739,945. That’s a clear signal: these buyers are after proven history, not the latest facelift. If you’re after a 79-series single-cab 4.5D V8, you’ll be shopping in the R899,900 to R1,350,000 band. Those buyers don’t need convincing — they want a workhorse with parts available in every dorp, and they’ll run it until the bush takes it back. The average mileage on these is 170,212 km, which might sound brutal, but if you know Land Cruisers, you know that’s barely broken-in — on paper at least. Then there’s the 200-series V8 TD VX auto at R729,990, aimed at families and long-haul comfort without losing that go-anywhere attitude. None of this is about status. It’s about trust — the kind that matters most when you’re halfway up Sani Pass or staring at a dirt track that isn’t on Google Maps. The Land Cruiser just gets on with it, and that’s the point.
