1991 Toyota Land Cruiser 4.2L Diesel · J428 KKH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes over the last decade. The most recent MOT recorded in April 2022 at 236,909 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the vehicle maintained its standards during that period. However, as it has now been over four years since the last test, the current roadworthiness status is lapsed and an immediate inspection is required before any travel. The mileage pattern aligns with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year, which suggests low-distance use or long periods of storage. There is a significant gap in data between 2009 and 2010, where the vehicle covered over 80,000 miles in a single year. Since 2010, the accumulation has slowed to a steady rate of roughly 7,000 to 10,000 miles annually. While low mileage is generally positive, it often masks the degradation of rubber components and seals that do not benefit from regular mechanical movement. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and braking system, given historical issues. The 2009 test flagged both front wheel bearings and a leaking hub seal, while the 2008 record noted corroded rear metal brake pipes and low parking brake efficiency. Although these were resolved in subsequent tests, the age of the Toyota Land Cruiser makes it prone to structural corrosion in the chassis and brake line points. The removal of rear seats during the 2019 and 2020 tests suggests the vehicle was used for utility purposes, which necessitates a thorough check of floorpan integrity and hidden impact damage.
