1993 expedition 80 for sale. Why? Only because my right knee is knackered and I can’t use a roof tent anymore. I’ve got basic details here so please phone me on 07899 792402 if you are serious. Vehicle located in Kingsbridge, Devon. I spent 2 months in this in Morocco in Nov/Dec 2022 and you...

Please note: For collection only from TQ7 3PQ, as all items are too long to post with Royal Mail 1/ A long sand shovel. It lived on my roof rack for 6K miles around Morocco but never used 2/ Sand ladders. I think they are bright green but still in delivery packaging. Again, been around Morocco...

Hi Gary. I am arriving in Santander on 16th October and not returning until mid December. I am a solo traveller and plan every day as it comes. I am open for some Spanish adventures but really want to get to Morocco where it is warmer and I can choose between beach, desert and mountains. I'm...

OK - decision made due to no take up at the lowest price I will take. I love it and will keep it (and could break it for £9K with the roof tent). 2 months research has shown me that to upgrade to a 'live inside' expedition 4x4 is going to cost me £50K +. So, I'll head off towards India in the 80...

I would totally consider a cur off conversion - if done correcrly at he right price. Having spent nearly two months in Morocco living outside unless I went intothe roof tent, here is where I am: Cut the vehicle behind the front seats New rear body includes over the cab double bed, I'll pay the...

Thanks all. Today I have been looking at the options for converting what I have, but the prices are € high! I also want room for a friend or one of my kids to be able to stay in relative comfort and these conversions are really for couples. I thought that there would be some 2nd hand vehicles...

Guys and girls. I need to sell this. I'll drop the price considerably for a quick buyer

IF you have my messages about my recent Moroccon trip then you will know a bit about why I am selling. If not then I have a detached retina eye problem and cannot risk it happening again. 1993 Expedition Landcruiser 80 Reg 4.2TD Auto in Red. 137,000 miles AT A VERY ATRACTIVE PRICE FOR ANYONE...

Yes I can drive, but the surgeon at Moorfields said I was very close to losing the sight and that there was a 40% chance it could happen again - with impacts/bumps being a likely cause. So, cringe, but I sense a motor home with either a scrambler or quad bike as the next step, but they have to...

I was doing the Chris Scott MW7 from Tan Tan to Smara. After crossing the Chott Mezwat to the eastern end, it was starting to get dark and I cocked up and headed east along N14, then south down a track towards 'greenery' in the far distance. I was only parked up for 15 minutes when three UN...

I’ve recently got back from my adventure, having done 6,500 miles door to door. I only stayed more than one night in the same place twice in two months - and was only under cover when I climbed into the roof tent at night. At 60 and on my own I was definitely challenged and had many ‘close to...

So, having arrived in Nador in Morocco on Monday, I’ve travelled down south using the smallest roads possible. Yesterday I made a navigation error and ended up at a military post near the Algerian border (very friendly and offered me tea and water), but the route they advised back was a dead...

Thanks thelal and Chris. I'll have a look tomorrow and have one of those tools that prises away the door card without buggering the clips. My bet is unglued but that is only because I want the easiest solution!!!

Sorry everyone!!! I'm just been on here getting advice on a 'potentially' failed turbo and I'm back! Yesterday I filled my 60L on board water tank with a steriliser. I've just been out to drain it and rinse it and, when turning the vehicle around 180 degrees to drain it, found that my drivers...

I would love the contact details of a good place to contact if anything goes wrong. I will have a spare rear shock, UJ's, bearings, starter motor (it's auto), injectors, and other bits. But, I learned from 33 years of driving Series 1 Landies that you always need what you don't have with you!

Thanks for all the replies! Tomorrow morning we are going to run the vehicle, with another following, until the problem occurs and the check it out. The 'we' is my ex RAC friend who is now a mobile mechanic with all the gear on board to help. I don't think it is fuel, as after the issue happened...

So, yesterday morning the last job remaining get's done. This was the freeing off of lazy calipers due to no use for three years and new pads. I took it for a test drive and the brakes were transformed. BUT, I'm 2 miles from home and lose all power. I pull the auto box into 2nd and press the...

OK - the summary! If you are a regular on this forum then pat yourself on the back - I have had many vehicles over the years and been on many forums, but landcruiserclub.net has proven to be the friendliest and most informative of all. A really special thank you to Stumog, whom I met in the...

WOW - Thank you for all the valuable comments and observations so quickly. The consensus is definitely 'travel light' - and save money :) With so many 'no go' areas in the world now I think Morocco (plus Portugal/Pyrenees) has fast become the Longleat of game reserves, if you get my drift -...

Does anyone on the forum have any recent experience of touring Morocco? I'm doing a solo trip there for 7 weeks from February in my 80 Series and finding it hard to draw the line on 'have to have', 'nice to have' and 'looks good, but will I ever use it' kit. If I listened to some of the advice...

I am about to order one - thanks Higgy! Has anyone fitted one yet and able to report if everything lines up??

Thank you for all your replies. Yesterday I (eventually) received an email from my local Toyota dealer quoting me an MLA price of £506 for the AC compressor (88320-60560) and fitting, including VAT. A full price unit alone was £600 + VAT, so it was a good concession. However, I had by then found...

Some myself and some at my local garage. The issue I have found ordering the correct parts is that there may be more than one variant. For example the pulley assembly on the front of the AC compressor comes in 2 sizes, with the larger one being 95mm deep and too big for my vehicle, but the part...

Hi all I have had a b****y nightmare with the AC system on my 1993 80 Series HDJ Landcruiser - and it is not over yet :( There are three references to the MLA programme within this forum, but I wanted to find out how often Toyota will give a special price to keep an old vehicle on the road and...

An update to this thread for anyone who has an 80 Series vehicle. The AC in one of my 80's has never worked and I decided to read all the threads yesterday and collect 'the knowledge', before heading off to Plymouth today to try and get it resolved. Here are some bits of info that might be...

Would anyone know of a good mechanic or workshop where I can get repairs and enhancements made to my 1991 80 Series LTD Jap import? I live in S Devon and cannot locate anyone close by. Thanks Nick
