One of the most reliable cars in this world
My dad bought one back in 2000 brand new with 60 miles! Now I own it and it has 164k miles and counting. I drive it everyday.
TheBravo13x not even half-dead yet
Only just run in
Don't forget to add it in your will , your kids wouldn't have to fight over it.
@@praveenhegde8107 haha. TRUE !!!
That 1HD-FTE engine is the best straight 6 diesel ever made. Emissions was the only reason they stopped making it.
The official engine of "No low ballers, I know what I have," and knowing what you have.
And 22 years later ,Richard looks older than the same landcruiser 100 he was reviewing.😊😊😊😊
21 years later 1998 l/cruisers are still good
And still worth a pretty penny for its age!
Bet you any money that lc in this video is still on the road today lol
A million times better than any Land Rover.
Land rover is better..try watch defender 2020 review
@@fahmiromli2416 don't compare old models with the new one.
@@fahmiromli2416 After few years the new "Rover" is already broken..
Billion times
Correction…A trillion better.
I still got my 2000 Landcruiser 100 series,, still runs good. No dents, no engine leaks, no differential leaks. The only things I've changed over the years are brake pads, suspension parts and engine, gearbox and diff oils.. I love it. Cant imagine replacing it..
I love it how the British are amazed at what is the norm in Australia.
I know, I have a TD 80 which is majorly modded for touring, an American asked me if its for expedition- I said wtf? For camping!
I have a blue 1FZ 100 like the video which is for my missus
LIVE ACTION 4WDING I think the middle east has beaten you in that.
And in Russia
That turbo spooling just made my day
I love this car! We have Lexus LX470 amazing quality &
durability !!!
I've always had a special place in my heart for that I6 turbo diesel. The way it sounds, OMG
A wonderful review from richard. The sound of exhaust is absolutly gorgeous.
This is the best car ever ! Never had a single issue with it ! Ever ! We drove it throughout Spain and all over Morocco, including the desert, and the sound of the exhaust is simply unique and still rings in my ears every time I remember it 🥹
best 4x4 ever made,
In 2021 we still own 1996 V8 land crusier, thats a massive machine.
there was no V8 engine in the Landcruiser in 1996
4.7 2 ufz
there is a 2uz-fe but that only came out in 1998-2007@@tangofelipe4602
the young Hammon
Watching this in 2020. Anyone else?
Would love to have that version available in the states. Diesel engine, LX wood trim and accessories and Land Cruiser front end. Beautiful color as well!
I want one more than a land rover
If only he knew what legendary car he had there at the time
Ooh, a looooot of amazing times ahead waiting for this young man :D
This is a car meant to last forever!
Any 1 here in 2019
Yes but only because I'm buying a 97 plate one to off road!
I just bought a 98model diesel limited edition with Timber interior
*slaps roof of car* This bad boy will do 1 million kms and outlive you, if regular maintenance is done
Well, at least he never crashed it.:)
Why does he think it is so big? The 100 series was actually fairly compact, especially by modern standards.
haha its for uk roads
Lathan Starnes in England it was huge.
because he's 4' 8" and a half
It really shows the difference between U.S vehicles and vehicles in the rest of the world, especially Europe. Over there something like that is gigantic, whereas here in the U.S I see dozens of vehicles this size and even bigger every day it doesn't even phase me.
To us puny Europeans this looks huge! I would think driving this up here in Scandinavia would be so smart with out tiny roads
I love this car to this moment......
I think some of the early 1998 Land-cruisers with the 4.2 diesel may be able to be imported to the US this year (2023). It would be great to get my hands on one
Any one here in 2020😂
Richard Hammond looks like Alan Partridge here.
The fact that so many of these currently have 200-300,000 miles on the clock and are barely run-in says so much. Complete tanks if you look after them, serviceable units if you don't.
We have the 2003 V6 Petrol in white amazing car
Actually the engine was 4.7L, not 4.6L.
finally some one notice it
this was 4.2L diesel.
at the time of tis comment, the amount of views is the EXACT same amount is the subscriber count
Such a good Toyota classic. and my fam has one of these.
I found a L/C with a 5 speed, righthand drive turbo diesel with 110k miles. Sure it will be my last vehicle
@@charliekendall4288 What price?
I found a manual petrol v8 one owned by my uncle, who very kindly gifted the car to me since they don`t want to keep a 20 yr old box in their garage. Now I`m just doing researches about it and learning how to do off-roading. Cuz I`m still more of a sports car guy.
@Ch.Hassan raza Tarar I later figured out that`s the 4.5 I6, not the V8, but still petrol though. The manual is extremely fun to play with, a different kind of fun from those manual sports cars. The car is very solid and I`ve done a few road trip with it. It gives zero fuck about the road conditions and just goes like nothing. I love it.
Its a young Hammond! Hamster! 🐹
It has a 4.7 liter petrol engine, not a 4.6 liter. The 4.6 arrived later with the next gen Cruiser.
2UZ-FE 4.7 V8 made 235bhp/173kw.
TB48-DE 4.8 inline 6 made 245bhp/185kw.
Im 5’6.5”, would I be able to drive a car like this land cruiser?
It really is A million times better than any other Japanese car
no
I would love to have that rig today in the USA 🇺🇸
Try OTTOEX.com. Importer of Japanese Domestic Market cars and trucks . Be sure it is 25 years old at least and has 17 digit VIN.
Hammonds freaking dress shoes 🤣
we have this car and we enjoy desert safari
Loaded with technology😂
How good would it be if you could still buy a brand new one today! Given that the current ones on the road are now soon 25 years old, and holding up well (with plenty of abuse thank you very much): You could probably drive a MY2023 100 series until the sun implodes…
I don’t know why I’m watching this in 2019. Especially when we had one since 2006.
nice motor were can i buy a engine like this one
I have a 1990 80 series
The misses has a 1998 105 series
He looks like David Essex love child
It is like every 10 years, he keeps his hair long, in 1998, and in 2008-11 period. He might not now.
I believe in 3 only 1- TOYOTA/land cruiser. 2-NISSAN/patrol. 3-CHEVY_GMC/suburban.
+Abdulla Alsada GM is trash
Tomahawk Studios Will i assume Ford is Better?
Not even lol
Honda ;)
1 yes 2 yes 3 was that a joke lol
hdj 80 was the last landcruiser
Why does it say V6 turbo diesel on the description?
Because it has a v6 turbo diesel engine
+Chris M it does not
+sekopiski the European model does
+Chris M it does not.
+sekopiski it does, Hammond says it in the video and you can look it up any where on the web
who watch this in 2016?
Aditya Putratama 2017
Aditya Putratama 2017 bud

Hammound has Clarkson style humour ??
Riadh Ben Malik go away
He's not a real hamster
2020
Suv = diesel ♥️
Toyota Best Fucking Brand Ever
He looks like a teenager here. Teenage girl to be more specific.
Reliable and luxurious, but painfully slow.
JELH not slow but it has terrible MPG.
Really? I thought the diesel would at least have decent MPG.
@@CynicalBastard511 the diesel did have decent mpg ..the petrol was horrendous
really really slow, but sometimes the engine gets a boost, very rare though
Do anything other than tickle the v8 lightly under the chin.... Leaves no doubt whatsoever what you are talking about.
Funny how he says 13 seconds to 100 is acceptable
IT IS!
Acceptable considering it's not a Tupperware princes for paved roads like many 'modern' SUV's
Back then it was.
i dont get why he thinks its so big. I walk past one of these every day and it's tiny.. I think my hilux is easily as big
superspeeed at that time yes its big, even corolla at the time is size as yaris sedan now
Nissan Patrol...
....is quite content being a sloppy 2nd.
@@aussierob3860 Nissan Patrol is #1
