This is a true beast. I work for an organization that procured these from Gibraltar stockholdings(that's the name of the co.) This is the only car that has survived horrible terrains of South Sudan,DRC, Darfur etc places that I have been in these cars. I have never met a mech who has overhauled this engine especially in South Sudan where we crossed laggas( temporary rivers) . We had an LC which had clocked over 700k km with no issues at all.Max Respect to this car!!. The most crazy trips I did on this car was in S.Sudan from Yei to Yambio where only the MAN 8X8 trucks and this LC could easily conquer!
My daily vehicle in Mara. People asking about consumption, it's 6-7km/litre. Another thing when servicing, make sure the mech gives it 11 litres of engine oil. Some mechs don't get to 11
Once, I broke the rear differential and I had to put it into 4wd and since the rear wheels were not pushing it, it actually became a front wheel drive and I drove through the bush road for about 600+km until I reached the nearest authorized service center.
Nice review Mr. Wokabi. Just to add on that, this beast chews the rough corrugation roads like biscuits hitting 100+km/h comfortably especially when loaded. The ones that transport khat to North Eastern region of Kenya, their pilots can attest to it. Point to note! Be very cautious going downhill when loaded, the brakes tend to fail when doing hard braking. As a newbie, I almost overturned one on those Meru slopes, I was saved by downshifting to second and then first gear after hitting a bump and being airborne for a second maahn! Anyway, it's a beast I'd drive any day anywhere forever.
I have ridden the land cruiser pickup afew times. It was not comfortable at all. Seated in the back with tens of others on the way to the nearest police station
This is quite a satisfying video. I read in a review site that the 79 is built to last for 25 years without replacing any major part as long as it is well maintained.
I agree its the only 4x4 most reliable and love.The feeling of driving this powerful vehicle gives u the control of the any road any time.The sound of the engine and shifting of the gears is more of a lorry to manual enthusiasts out there 👍💖
Recent update, Toyota Kenya is now selling V8 single turbo in this vehicles. Bhogals Nakuru have been advertising since late last year, am pretty sure it's being sold country wide.
Hamna huruma 😅 mnataka roho ya mzee hapo nyuma isimame mkifanya hiyo 0 -100. Na mliskip kufit Mbuguas kwa trunk. It can fit 30 mbuguas vile huwa inafanya kwa msako. Kībogo. Nice one canversations team 👊🏿
Wokabi you never disappoint just as the 79,78 & 76.....am very happy and more informed from your car lesson's. Very soon I should be getting one of this insha'Allah.... excellent job and stay blessed mkuu.
THe greatest of them all. All hail te 70 Series! Been driving a Troopie (78) for the past year and I can confidently say It's the undisputed king of the jungle! Not a daily driver though, its a thirsty one sometimes doing as bad as 5.5kmpL, terrible turning circle and in towns its just awful to be in tose tight roads. But out on the open roads, gravel roads in all wheels, its te best experience you"ll ever experience in any truck!
Of all the car reviews, this one on fire. Same thoughts for me also on acquiring all the models of LC 76,79,78. Then unajaza zote full tank. Tukutane after 2 years!😎
If you wanna know how tough these cars are, ask Kenya police in north eastern region of Kenya, where they are abused, driven in insane speed on rough terrains, overloaded pushed to the core but steel they survive
I drive both the ambulance and the long chasis in this video all I can say is this is a car a youth will gift his grown-up grandchild while still in good condition.
*Wokabi forgot to say that: 1. The Landcruiser is made to take you far AND BACK unlike the landrovers 2. It shall be cheaper to buy it brund new from South Africa
Top notch content delivery... Good job.. I have a soft spot for the long chase landcruiser,,, it's very big does that make weird? Because if I am I can settle for the hardtop
I go where my heart takes me, am not bound to anything, i cross over mountain tops, i am the ultimate workhorse renowed for its monstrous look. #Landcruiser The best in the world🐐
if i think of substitute, which there is next to none in this case..it has to be the defender 110. Ck i wouldn't a Land Rover Defender 110 just for the eyes m curiosity
Good job.. the car we have been waiting for. But in 0- 100 It depends with the driver. some people can clock 0- 100 below 15 seconds wit the same vehicle.
Its an exiting car especially the ones (passager ones) sold by Toyota Kenya, we have 2 at work and when going uphill they are very lazy. I just wish the just did it a favor and turbocharged it
I can't believe Wokabi ulisahau that the 79 is also the vehicle of choice by terrorist organizations. Yaani gari ya magaidi kote duniani. That's how reliable this thing is. My dream and retirement vehicle

Wow
Any chance for an individual to buy this car through Toyota Gibraltar?
what are pros and cons of 1VD twin turbo
Have driven the hardtop for an NGO for 4years now, the most reliable and practical of all, there is nowhere this landcruicer won't go🔥💯
Mr Jotham can we link up if possible
I have a few queries
This is also my retirement vehicle if possible by 45, I used one to carry materials back in 2017 this is a beast if not puppy to tanks.
My daily vehicle in Mara. People asking about consumption, it's 6-7km/litre. Another thing when servicing, make sure the mech gives it 11 litres of engine oil. Some mechs don't get to 11
twin turbo?
6-7km/liter = 1.6L/100km
Best engine I use it for tour @munorus adventures limited

You guys have done me justice, I put a comment on your live session on Monday and it seems you value our requests much. God bless you.
Double cab 79 is my dream car…Australians really know how to customize them for Overlanding…

Driven 1 HZ J 79 for the past 8 years, current millage 520000 km
@@keitrodger3094did you use it as a daily?
I've always loved this one,the sound of the engine is just a sound to the ears,leta Hilux sasa👍👍
You forgot to mention that even in all wars, you will always find the Landcruiser 79 Series.

Have driven a 79model ambulance, took it at 1k km to 69k km, left it still new. With proper servicing this truck can serve generations
Wokabi has never been this excited 🤣

Just have front and rear difflocks on this beast. You can go anywhere whenever you want. In my bucket list of cars to own
There's an Australian expression, "If you want to go into the bush, take a Land Rover. If you want to get out of the bush, take a Land Cruiser."
Wokabi you never disappoint just as the 79,78 & 76.....am very happy and more informed from your car lesson's. Very soon I should be getting one of this insha'Allah.... excellent job and stay blessed mkuu.
Thanks Wokabi once again for an informative review. I loved it. Could you kindly review a SUZUKI JIMNY?

Also very lazy on steep hills but will crawl out of any deep pit nevertheless
Box prado also is a 78 series(rectangle headlights) and 75 series (round headlamps).1994- 1995 prado production.

You'll be superised zinakunywa mafuta mbaya sana. I've used one for just two days na niliumia sana.
Consumption when you hit 100+km/h is 5-7km/l
Consumption is around 7km/litre.
i used to watch your shows till i ended up buying one of your recommendations. Now the 79? im back !
Finally the Legendary Land Cruiser that is true for enthusiasts. Big Up Carnversations 👍
Good work Wokabi and the team. You bring the best cars on your channel na hii landcruiser ni the best for me. Second car that has a 10. Good work man.
Waiting for the hilux single cab review. Local assembly
Thanks for bringing this vehicle now waiting for Suzuki jimmy
For me also this is the car i would buy in the landcruiser line up 😆😆😆as a nature lover 😆😆
And less you forget,they are used to ferry Miraa from my home town Meru to very hostile places like garisa moyale and other places.
Very true I was thinking the same
Next have the 76 and also the 80Series. Kwanza ya Tanzania
The 1HZ version is a living proof that humanity can still survive with only fuses and relays. No computer needed🤣🤣🤣
The beast.....my daily driver for over ten years now
Great review!
Also bring the Nissan Elgrand for review.
Erick after this please do a review of prado 95 series. Some of us are still attached to it. As compared to the modern j120 & j150
If you wanna know how tough these cars are, ask Kenya police in north eastern region of Kenya, where they are abused, driven in insane speed on rough terrains, overloaded pushed to the core but steel they survive
I was expecting you to compare these Toyotas with their Landrover counterparts
About the 1HZ you are spot on! Great content.
I drive both the ambulance and the long chasis in this video all I can say is this is a car a youth will gift his grown-up grandchild while still in good condition.
How does Wokabi manage to drive this care like a 1990 Dx? So comfortably!
Was really waiting for this episode of all, thanks canversation 💪💪💪💪🚨
Been waiting for this finally!!
I thought Mbugua would scream while speeding 0 to 100 😂😂😂
If you break this Beast down, ata ndoa utavunja! 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅😅
This thing is immortal 😂
Nice content. Consider reviewing Subaru Forester 2019 (with the new global platform)
It’s an understatement to even say I’m really excited @Wokabi 😅
This one was long coming
And I have a grounded Mazda 323...I don’t know where to start restoration process
Finally, I've been waiting for this for a long time.
Wokabi...please review pia the 76...we see how practicle it is...price ...,good work
*Wokabi forgot to say that:
1. The Landcruiser is made to take you far AND BACK unlike the landrovers
2. It shall be cheaper to buy it brund new from South Africa
Please elaborate on buying new from South Africa. Is it cheaper than buying brand new from Toyota Kenya or?
Top notch content delivery... Good job.. I have a soft spot for the long chase landcruiser,,, it's very big does that make weird? Because if I am I can settle for the hardtop
Wokabi Next ni Toyota Hilux ya Miraa 🤣
This is great. We use it for extream safari off-road. It will be great if you also reviewed the Toyota hiace fulltime 4×4 3.0 1kd
at least Mbugua amekaa mbele for the first time in a century
Land cruiser 79. the myth, the legend
I go where my heart takes me, am not bound to anything, i cross over mountain tops, i am the ultimate workhorse renowed for its monstrous look. #Landcruiser The best in the world🐐
Been waiting for this since day 1. I have.... wacha nikae chini vizuri sasa
Ati 10/10. So comfort, fuel economy na driving experience ham rate
It's a 10/ 10 for its meant to be. A can that can last you 30 years and still new and practical
Good work with the ck ..i remember asking for this in the last episode and you've delivered...that show's how much you value our request 👏👏👏bigup guys
Nice review. Consumption hamjagusa. This beast is fuel thirsty! Now onto pickups leta Hilux, Dmax na Nissan Np300.
Is the consumption that bad?
Yeeeesssss let him do for those 3
Thank you!!!! for reviewing my dream moti. Gotta love it.❤

Good job..
the car we have been waiting for. But in 0- 100 It depends with the driver. some people can clock 0- 100 below 15 seconds wit the same vehicle.
Of course, with hard acceleration and almost redlining in 1st and 2nd gear
kindly review the Toyota Fortuner
The 79 model with the straight 6 cylinder is the best.I have the 78 its good but rear suspension (coil springs) isnot good.what can i do?
This my work drive. The customised tour vehicle
Baas, Beast of offroad 💯💯💯💯
Review the Isuzu mux
Hard Top...best vehicle ever!
Îno nîyo ngari
Hii ndio gari
This is the real deal viechle

Finaaallyyy now we are talking 😂😂
Thanks for this review 💯💯
Big up Erick, good job
Its an exiting car especially the ones (passager ones) sold by Toyota Kenya, we have 2 at work and when going uphill they are very lazy. I just wish the just did it a favor and turbocharged it
Extremely lazy, you'll be shifting 2nd and 3rd gears back and forth until you get to the hilltop.
Nice work trying to hide the number plate, but i saw it. KCB 11*B 😎
I can't believe Wokabi ulisahau that the 79 is also the vehicle of choice by terrorist organizations. Yaani gari ya magaidi kote duniani. That's how reliable this thing is. My dream and retirement vehicle
This is my dream car, I want the troop carrier
