Not mine, but I had it's sister ship from 1982-1985.

My wife and I started dating in it!

Mine since 1988 and still going strong. The only major repair was a radiator replacement in 1995 ($540.94).

$15,000 couldn't repair my Series III to make it safe to be on the road!
 
This is my daily driver now:

Probably the best vehicle I've ever owned!
 
Have you seen the 2024's???




The Toyota version may restore the Landcruiser to what is is supposed to be for the US market.

Brilliant

We lived in Mazabuka in about 1966.

My dear old Dad was the only Doctor for 3000 sq miles

He would travel between clinics in the bush in a landie like that

I used to go with - we’d kip out in the bush as we went along

That was a profound time for me

First time I thought that I’d killed somebody was at aged 8 I got tangled up with the O2 tubes I was supposed to be holding for a resuss patient

My Dad turned to me and said forget it - she’s just died

I thought it was my fault

During my safari in RSA in August, I mentioned the lack of Land Rovers in the bush. I was told that when you purchase a Land Rover , the dealer gave you a dog. Why, I asked. I was told that when you break down you will not be alone. Apparently the newer Landy falls short of the early ones that they built their rep on. So sad. I see it locally with jaguars also.
 
OK


I may have to get in to Land Rovers again, but not quite...

Hello, I asked the question I did simply to bump it to the top for you. I have a 416 Taylor or I would be very interested in it! It's a real beauty!
Gents, if you book and pay your deposit before the end of this year , you can have the bigger cull package for the 2026 price! https://www.africahunting.com/threa...griffiths-safaris-starting-at-us-2-560.96285/
I am currently in Northern Cape scouting a hunting area, we will have lots of amazing hunting opportunities for 2027! I will post updated available dates soon!

Good Evening. I am very interested in you hunt for the spiral slam. March in 2028 would be fine for me

Couple of quick questions:

1) Can we add some additional species on
2) what do you want for a deposit?
3) how do you want me to sign up

I'm on whats app or email

Kurt [redacted]

have a great evening
