Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for mech
Prioritise a professional inspection of the engine and transmission area to identify the source of the 'not excessive' oil leak noted in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Because this leak has been a recurring advisory for three consecutive years, it is important to determine if it is a slow weep or a worsening fault.
Check the condition of the suspension components, specifically following the 2024 advisory regarding the offside front lower ball joint. You should also ask for evidence of recent work to address these specific MOT advisories before completing a purchase.
Expect higher-than-average running costs due to the large 2982cc diesel engine. Fuel economy will be a significant factor, especially for a heavy 4x4 vehicle of this era.
Tax and insurance groups for a vehicle of this size and engine capacity are typically higher than standard passenger cars. Maintenance costs should be budgeted for, particularly regarding heavy-duty suspension components and diesel engine upkeep.
Focus heavily on the underside of the engine to locate the source of the oil leak reported in the 2022, 2023, and 2024 MOT tests. Even if described as 'not excessive', the longevity of this leak is a key data point.
Inspect the front suspension thoroughly. The 2024 MOT record specifically flagged slight play in the offside front lower suspension ball joint. Additionally, given the aggregate model data for this Landcruiser, check the chassis and anti-roll bars for signs of the corrosion or component wear common to this model.
This 2000 Toyota Landcruiser Colorado is a high-displacement 2.9L diesel with 154,650 miles on the clock. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of oil leaks over the last three years and a recent suspension component issue. Given its age and mileage, buyers should weigh its utility against the documented maintenance requirements.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 74.1% average MOT pass rate, with common failure points being headlamps, anti-roll bars, and corrosion.
