2002 Toyota Landcruiser LC3 D-4D Auto 3.0L Diesel · GSZ 8946

The 2002 Toyota Landcruiser LC3 D-4D Auto presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 March 2026 at 130,934 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests in April 2025, April 2024 and December 2022 each passed cleanly. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available record, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening condition or recurring test failures. The Landcruiser has covered 130,934 miles over roughly 24 years, an average of about 5,456 miles per year which is low for its age. Mileage progression is gentle: 113,949 miles in December 2022 rose to 114,116 by 13 December 2022, then 120,618 by April 2024, 127,625 by April 2025 and 130,934 by March 2026. A short gap exists between the December 2022 pass and the April 2024 test, with no entry for 2023, but the clean results and low annual use suggest light running rather than neglected storage. The sparse, defect-free history gives little evidence of hard use or skipped consumable replacement. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of age-sensitive components that MOT tests may not flag when passable. At 24 years old, suspension bushes, coil springs and subframe mounting points are prone to rubber degradation and fatigue even at low mileage. The diesel drivetrain and automatic transmission should be checked for fluid condition and any drivetrain vibration. Brake discs, calipers and exhaust emissions systems warrant physical examination for corrosion or binding, since the record shows no advisories but cannot confirm component life remaining. Structural underbody rust on a Landcruiser of this era is a known risk; the tester recorded no corrosion defects, yet a ramp inspection of chassis rails and sills remains prudent before purchase.
