It just goes to show, its not always the mileage thats important but where its been located and how its been looked after. At that kind of budget if I wanted a "solid" 80 I'd buy one abroad from a RHD hot country ( ie Cyprus or similar) and start from there.
80's now are nearly all suffering from sill corrosion and looking fragile around the rear body mounts. The ones which will make the money are the few which have managed to avoid this.
That appeared on gumtree up in Glasgow a couple of months ago, think it was about £10,000. Looked to be in a lorry yard or something in the pictures.
I'm sorry I missed it at that! I'd forgive the corrosion.
I just called them, said I'm calling about the land cruiser, I think he said "yes", I then said I've been keeping an eye out for one but I can't understand how it's failed the mot due to corrosion and has a tow bar yet it's a showroom car.
He then says I sold it yesterday.
