You know how impressed I am with my Elsie - 1994 Land Cruiser. The design and engineering is super, just as its reliability and limited need for maintenance. It's a true 4x4 (diff locks front and rear, and central lock transfer case) and yet smooth and comfortable on tarmac. It's basically the model that made Land Cruiser famous... you remember "Power With Luxury"? Well, that's the one.
Finally, after years of patiently waiting, THE car I wanted has come to me 8) So so so happy that I'm really thinking "this is it, I'm done with buying cars."
Introducing El So, my new 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser:
Taken care of by its previous owner and didn't touch sand ever in the last ten years. There is no dust even in the A/C vents. The guy even put foam inserts into the indicator lever - Babied!!! 8)
Winch and diff locks... (diff locks don't engage - never used! Winch operation still unknown)
Manual gears!!!
235,000km on the clock, sun roof, electric seats, ice maker, dual A/C, 4-seat benches in cargo area, dual fuel tanks (needed!!! ADNOC will love me with two LCs!)
Traded in Jeep Cheeky as part of the deal!!!! 8) 8) Man, I wanted this vehicle so badly I would have traded in my right hand!
As usual, first thing will be full mechanical check... 8)
