Renowned worldwide for its simplicity, reliability and longevity, the 1HZ has earned an almost mythical reputation and remains one of Toyota’s finest diesel engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShowing just 256,000 km (146,759 miles) from new, this Land Cruiser presents in excellent original condition throughout. The bodywork is very straight, the chassis is clean, and the interior has clearly been cherished. Finding an HZJ73 in this level of original, unmodified condition is becoming increasingly difficult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike many examples that have been heavily modified for off-road use, this vehicle remains factory standard, exactly as Toyota intended. It starts instantly, runs beautifully and drives exactly as a well-maintained Land Cruiser should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecification\u003cbr\u003e\n1995 Toyota Land Cruiser HZJ73\u003cbr\u003e\n4.2-litre Toyota 1HZ naturally aspirated diesel\u003cbr\u003e\n5-speed manual gearbox\u003cbr\u003e\nSelectable high\/ low ratio transfer box\u003cbr\u003e\nFactory FRP removable hard top\u003cbr\u003e\n204,000 km (126,759 miles)\u003cbr\u003e\nFactory power steering\u003cbr\u003e\nFront locking free-wheel hubs\u003cbr\u003e\nFactory steel wheels\u003cbr\u003e\nOriginal cloth interior\u003cbr\u003e\nRear bench seating\u003cbr\u003e\nSide steps\u003cbr\u003e\nTwin battery setup\u003cbr\u003e\nSliding rear side windows\u003cbr\u003e\nOriginal Toyota steering wheel and interior trim\u003cbr\u003e\nCompletely factory standard\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of those vehicles that immediately stands out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paintwork has a deep shine, the panel fit is excellent and the vehicle retains a wonderfully honest, original appearance. The interior is equally impressive, with exceptionally clean seats, dashboard, carpets and trim throughout. Everything has the feel of a vehicle that has been carefully looked after rather than restored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMechanically it performs exactly as you would expect. The legendary 1HZ engine pulls strongly, the gearbox shifts smoothly, the transfer box engages correctly and the vehicle drives with the solid feel these Land Cruisers are famous for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy buy an HZJ73?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HZJ73 occupies a special place within the 70 Series family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe short-wheelbase chassis combined with the removable FRP hard top creates a Land Cruiser that is both highly capable off-road and incredibly practical. It has become particularly desirable among collectors because it was produced in relatively small numbers compared with other 70 Series variants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExamples in original condition are now becoming very difficult to source, particularly in the UK, where only a handful appear for sale each year. Enthusiasts actively seek these models thanks to the bulletproof 1HZ engine, classic styling and outstanding build quality. Community discussions consistently regard the HZJ73 with the 1HZ as one of the most desirable 70 Series configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUK Registration\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vehicle will be supplied with:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUK V5 registration document\u003cbr\u003e\nUK number plates fitted\u003cbr\u003e\n12 months MOT\u003cbr\u003e\nFully UK registered and ready to drive away\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore coming in stock soon – December 2026\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toyota","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67571023053190,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1110\/4318\/2982\/files\/HZJ73-2.png?v=1791190670","url":"https:\/\/www.thatsclassic.co.uk\/products\/1995-toyota-land-cruiser-hzj73-frp-top-4-2-diesel","provider":"That's Classic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
