Toyota Landcruiser

I'm thinking of buying a '93 Toyota Landcruiser Amazon 4.2 TD VX Automatic. It's low mileage, very good condition and nice to drive. I know that Landcruisers are tough, but is there anything I should be wary of?

TIA, Ian.

They're big, ugly, expensive and dangerous... what else you wanna know?

mine is only a 3.1td intercooler and the fuel bill is ridiculous. gonna get rid i think. then again i do a fair few miles. if you work locally and dont drive about much fuel shouldnt be big issue.
