Reviewer's opinion
This brings us back to the original question: Is the Land Cruiser still relevant in the modern world? For the right kind of buyer, it is, and without a doubt. It still has no real competition in the marketplace other than the opponents it first faced 30 years ago (the Nissan Patrol and Mercedes-Benz G-Class), when your requirements include the ability to cross vast distances in uncharted (untarred) territory. And, because it is essentially still a truck in a fancy suit, towing capacity is first-class, with a maximum rating of 3500 kg and enough torque to pull a house off its foundations.
