1998 Toyota Landcruiser 3.4L Petrol · S67 FGP

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, evidenced by the most recent MOT test in March 2026 at 159,259 miles which returned with zero defects. The maintenance trend appears stable and improving, as mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the history shows intermittent wear-related failures, the transition to a clean test sheet suggests the current owner is proactive in rectifying faults before they escalate into test failures. At 28 years old, the recorded mileage of 159,259 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 5,688 miles. The data shows a consistent usage pattern, with roughly 3,000 to 6,000 miles covered between annual tests between 2022 and 2026. This low-intensity usage typically preserves the drivetrain and engine internal components, however, it often increases the risk of rubber-based components degrading or seals drying out during periods of relative inactivity rather than high mechanical stress. A physical inspection should focus on the areas previously flagged to ensure repairs have held. The 2025 test noted a corroded offside front brake pipe, and the 2023 record identified a damaged nearside steering rack gaiter; the buyer must inspect the brake lines for signs of further oxidation and ensure the steering boots are free of grease ingress. Given the 2022 report of a non-excessive oil leak, a thorough check of the engine block and gearbox housing is necessary to confirm the leak has not worsened over the last four years of operation.
