1994 Toyota Land Cruiser Diff Locks Only 73k Miles! 3rd Row, Gray Leather Fzj80 on 2040-cars
United States
OVERVIEW: This is a very well kept example of unmodified 1994 FZJ80 Land Cruiser with only 73k miles, 3rd row seats, and optional front and rear Differential Locks. I recently bought this FZJ80 to build up for off road use, but it is so clean I can't bare to alter it. I will attempt to explain to the best of my knowledge in detail the condition of everything. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me via email. If you'd like leave me your number, we can talk over the phone. HISTORY: I've only owned this vehicle for a month or so. I purchased it from a gentleman in San Jose, CA who had recently inherited it from the passing of his brother. He stated his brother had owned it since it was "almost new". He also stated this was only one of seven cars he had just inherited from his brother inluding a bunch of high end sports cars and that when they were not being driven they were garaged in what he said was a huge 10+ car garage, (hence the low mileage, and condition). Clean title and pink slip is in my name and in hand. It looks as though I am the 4th owner. The third owner was the guy I bought it from and he had it since 10/17/13. His brother, 2nd owner, had it since 4/2/97 with 47k miles. EXTERIOR: Color is Dark Emerald Pearl Green. Appears to be the original paint with no signs of clear coat fading. There are a handful of tiny paint touch up spots on different areas of the vehicle apparently from the previous owner. Has factory roof rack, factory running boards, factory mud flaps, tow package with wiring harness. See link to pictures for all details of any imperfections that caught my eye. INTERIOR: Gray interior is very clean. There is no evidence of tabacco / smoking use. Leather Seats are in great condition including the 3rd row seats, with power seats working in all directions. Driver seat has the most wear but no rips or tears, (see picture link). Carpet is very clean throughout with factory floor mats for front, middle, 3rd row, (had never seen the narrow 3rd row floor mat before) and rear cargo mat. Door panels and headliner are very clean. All interior and dash lights work as they should, (even the often burned out "D" light still illuminates on the dash!). Sunroof tilts and opens/closes as intended. I poured water down all four sunroof drains and they all flowed to the grounds smoothly. All power SUSPENSION/RUNNING GEAR/TIRES: It appears to have the factory coil springs with very clean, (or perhaps newer), Bilstiens in all corners. The 4.5L inline 6 runs smooth, and A442F transmission shifts smoothly. Power steering works well with no issues. Coolant is red in color, consistant with factory Toyota coolant. Engine oil is full, with no signs of water/coolant mixing. Brake, Auto Transmission, transfer case, front/rear axle fluids are all properly full with no signs of over use, neglect or metal filings. No apparent coolant, oil or gear fluid leaks. Front axle knuckles look clean and free of leaks. No engine codes or check engine lights. Air filter is the factory Toyota washable type. Tires are Toyo Open Country 275/70R16 and look practically new, with lots of tread, (see pictures) with no cupping or uneven wear marks. Factory spare has Michelin 275/70R16 in factory location. Factory jack and tool kit included. DRIVE/4WD: It accelerates and drives fantastic down the road at all speeds, no shimmies, shakes or pulling to either side. The ABS power brakes operate properly and stop great. Four Wheel Drive; The 4wd low shifts as it should which activates the CDL and ABS lights to illuminate on the dash. Both the front and rear differential lockers activate within a matter of seconds. When activating the front or rear differential the selinoid can be heard activating each locker which changes each blinking light on the dash to stay on solid. Lockers and 4wd hi/low both work great! PAYMENT: $500 due via paypal within 3 days of auction end, (if you don't have paypal, contact me before bidding and we can work something out). The remaining balance due upon vehicle pickup in for the form of cash, cashiers check or money transfer, (we could even meet at a bank if you prefer, I've heard bad stories about fake cashiers checks). SHIPPING: Winning bidder will need to make arrangements for picking vehicle up from my location. I reserve the right to end auction early since the vehicle is available for sale locally too. Currently California smogged, and in smog cert in CA database which is good for 90 days. Smog performed on 2/18/2014.

Toyota announces two recalls affecting 1M Corolla, Matrix and Lexus IS models
Wed, 30 Jan 2013The recall bug strikes Toyota again. The automaker has issued a voluntary recall of three models that, in total, represent more than one million units. Around 752,000 2003-2004 Toyota Corolla and Matrix models are being recalled for airbag concerns, while a windshield wiper issue is causing the recall for close to 270,000 Lexus IS sedans from the 2006-2012 model years.
Completely unrelated to the small airbag-related recall issued earlier in the week, the Corolla and Matrix recall is caused by a faulty airbag control module that could potentially short circuit, which could lead to the front airbags or seat belt pretensioners deploying. The Lexus recall is due to a wiper arm nut that wasn't tightened properly, which can cause the wipers to not work when trying to clear heavy buildup such as snow.
Scroll down for a press release that includes more information, as well as details about how owners can contact the manufacturer directly.
This Irishman really likes the Toyota GT86
Sun, 10 Feb 2013Okay, okay - by this point in time just liking the Toyota GT86 (Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ, what have you) doesn't make you special. Even if you're a sort of funny sounding, funny looking Irishman, who probably isn't the most seasoned car reviewer ever, digging the GT86 is not news.
However, if, when you choose to publish your ten-minute-long review, you include exclamatory phrases about your own pubic hair, Ozzy Osborne's drug habit and "gentleman vegetable stuff," well sir, then you'll have our attention.
Don't give up on this video, available down below, after the first couple of minutes, we implore you. The silver-tongued Irishman doesn't really get warmed up until four minutes in, or so. Believe us, it's worth the wait.
2014 Toyota Corolla gets marginal IIHS small overlap crash test score [w/video]
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Toyota may have performed some major surgery on the 2014 Corolla, but that hasn't helped the Japanese automaker overcome tough new crash test procedures. The Corolla, Toyota's bread-and-butter compact sedan, managed only a Marginal score on the new small overlap crash test, which was just added last year.
Despite the low score, the Corolla performed well in the moderate overlap front, side, rollover and rear testing, which was enough to score it a 2013 Top Safety Pick. In testing in August, six of the Corolla's competitors earned the Top Safety Pick + award, for good or acceptable scores across the board.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Corolla's "Marginal" score was down to an "intruding structure," that could cause injuries to the lower left leg. There was also concern that in a collision, the driver's head would move after hitting the air bag, and collide with the A-pillar or dash.
