    New to Land Crusiers, what to look out for when buying

    Ouch, thats a major bargaining point! Dont know whether to tell them how to check it properly and hope it works, or let them falter and try and knock as much as possible off the price and pray it works...

    Thanks for the replies. I will make sure the diff lock is fixed before commiting. It has a full service history with all bills and receipts. Just had an MOT which included replacing some bushes and/or ball joints and the interior is in good condition. The steering wheel adjustment works fine...
