"You go into the desert in a Range Rover, and you then use a Land Cruiser to get back out of it afterwards..."
Chris takes us along with him to Walter's Arena to put his 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser through its paces on their off-road course.
Described by many as the ultimate go-anywhere off-roader, Chris talks us through why he decided to chop in his 2020 G350d and replace it with this very usable example of Toyota's robust luxury SUV.

He refuses to get rid of it, it's pulled big fendt tractors from fields that broke down and it's a complete donkey that NEVER lets him down.

My GXL V8 ute was a beast... I loved that thing, had it as a company car when I worked for a mining company in Kalgoorlie. I used it as a 4WD work ute every single day and in the most demanding of conditions. There was almost nothing it couldn't take in its stride. If anything, I'd say the V8 was a bit too powerful for 99% of what people would need and probably not worth the extra money unless you really need it. It never even hinted at letting me down, no matter what the temperature or task, but thank goodness I never had to pay for the fuel! It was shocking how thirsty it was when it was being worked. But as the saying goes: If you wanna go to the outback, take a Land Rover. If you wanna come home again, take a LandCruiser. Out there, nothing else will do.

I had an Landcruiser 80 series and I also have an amusing anecdote. Around 12years ago I took said Landcruiser towing a Toyota Supra on a trailer to a track day. My mate towed his Subaru on a trailer with his Volvo XC90. It’s been long enough now, so I will reveal that we stayed at Brands Hatch Place Hotel just up the road from the circuit. There’s not much parking there for long vehicles, so we were pointed in the direction of a wooded area adjacent a large lawn. It was winter and the ground was wet. I think you have a idea where I’m going with this. My mate in his infinite wisdom, decides to drive onto the lawn and turn around with his Volvo and trailer. It’s going ok until he turns and the struggle for traction begins. He ends up more or less facing the right way to drive but is up to his axles by now. Going no where. Properly sunk. He cries for help and asks if we should unhitch the Landcruiser to tow him out. To which I laugh and back up to the front of his car with trailer attached. Didn’t have a tow rope to used a 3” trailer ratchet strap and hooked it to the back of my trailer and then to his towing eye. I had BF Goodrich All terrain tyres, which helped compared to his road tyres. Any way, in case you’re not aware the Landcruiser 80 series has not only a centre locking diff, also a rear locking diff AND a front locking diff. So I put it in low box and locked the diffs up and pulled his Volvo with trailer attached and Subaru loaded on it, out with my my Landcruiser with trailer attached and supra loaded on it. Just came straight out. Was in the region of 9 ton trainer weight. It was an astounding car and I rue the day I parted with it.

It has a snorkel and lifted OME suspension and has managed water crossings in the Okovango Delta midway up the windscreen at times. Never skipped a beat. It's true what Chris says about Cruisers and africa, you take a big risk putting your faith in anything else.

Agreed Chris! My '16 LC200 also happens to be the "best" car I've ever owned. And while I haven't owned as many as you, I've owned (too) many. The Land Cruiser is built like a tank, is ultra-reliable, it's comfortable and reasonably luxurious. And certainly highly capable. Mine is the 5.7L V8 which I always assumed was the same 5.7L V8 in other Toyotas - Sequoia, Tundra etc. A side-by-side comparison by a youtuber revealed the LC engine is different. Built with harder and more durable plastics, larger and more solid reservoirs, etc. Point is: the Land Cruiser is simply "built differently". In a very good way!

Got my father one in 2006, and he still says it's the best car he's ever owned. Towed his caravan 21 miles before realising the caravans brakes were still on. I'm not talking about a modern caravan but an old one that tipped the scales at close to 2 tons. Didn't even notice, though caravan needed new tyres and rims.

In Australia the LC200 and all the other models of LC are king and for a reason. I have one of the first 200's that came to Australia, 2007 Sahara, similar to yours except no seat heating - it doesn't get cold here at least in WA. But you are absolutely correct, they are an immensely capable vehicle, and put most others to shame in going through the rough and tough. Yes they love to drink, but hey in Australia which is a huge place as compared to the UK, then you do what you have to do in order to get around. I love the simplicity of the vehicle and its virtually 'bullet proof' performance and reliability! I've said to my wife, I have no desire to get another car for the purpose that I use this one. Good review. 👍

Beautiful video Chris. Once you go Land Cruiser 100 or 200 it is hard to sit in anything else and enjoy it. Everything else pales by comparison. I have owned 2 Land Cruiser 100 1HD-FTE’s and a LX570. I regret selling each of them. I now drive a Prado 150 V6 and think about my “Proper” Land Cruisers every time I drive the Prado. The 1HD-FTE 4.2 inline 6 turbo diesel is built on another level in terms of durability. Built in a hermetically sealed factory, single pulley on the entire accessory belt drive system, dual belts on the alternator, the service manual suggests using a wire brush for cleaning the injectors. They can also make 500kw and over 1000nm when tuned.

Just bought a 2010 petrol 200 series! The most complete car ever made. Sports cars aside, it is the answer to every question here in Australia.

Landcruiser is a very understated vehicle. Probably the best car in the world for 80% of the world!

We need a full length adventure out in this thing Chris. Remember its not just this one, its generations of Landcruiser's before it that brought us here, All brilliant in their own way when released. Had an 80 series until recently and was started to show some age after THIRTY years. Moved on to the 200 as soon as I heard they were dropping the V8 and the Tailgate. Impresses me every day I drive it. 3 kids 1 wife and half the house in the back for trips away, no worries, There and Back again.

I drive a 1991 Land Cruiser. It had been badly abused by previous owners, towing, salt water dips, poor maintenance, bolts missing, you name it, they tried to kill it. I have taken care of it for ten years and it is by a very long way, the best vehicle I have ever owned.

I LOVE that you made this video! Of all the different cars I've driven, Land Cruisers have always been my favorites. I'm also sad at the same time, because you're adding to the Land Cruiser hype, pushing up the prices even more just before I'm about to buy one. 😂

In Australia Theres a saying. You can take anything into the outback but you’ll need a Landcruiser to get you home again.
