TOYOTA Land Cruiser GRJ 78 – like new (only 9,829 km)
Ready to go
Description:
Land Cruiser GRJ78 – ready to hit the road. A first-hand example of the legendary “bush taxi” from the J7 series. And thanks to its very low mileage, it’s in practically new condition.
I treated myself to this dream car. But unfortunately, I’ll now have to part ways with this beautiful Land Cruiser. This way of traveling is wonderful, but it won’t be feasible for me in the coming years.
It’s only been on the road for 3 summers and has seen very little of the world. Just 9,829 km on the odometer. None of that off-road.
It’s one of the last ones built by Extrem-Fahrzeuge. The vehicle was ordered new from Extrem-Fahrzeuge GmbH in Schwenningen and was built up and modified there: a pop-up/sleeping roof, TÜV-certified off-road modifications, new tires, etc. The quality is top-notch. The cavities and underbody were protected right before the first drive during the conversion.
It has a pop-up roof that can be opened in 2 minutes and closed again in 5.
The pop-up roof is made entirely of aluminum and is therefore extremely sturdy and walkable. It can also accommodate additional cargo.
Inside the raised roof is a large bed for two people that can be extended to approximately 250 cm with an extension. But you don’t have to—even without it, the bed is already over 2 meters long. This means there’s plenty of room even for very tall sleepers.
The headroom in the rear is also very generous—I’d estimate over 240 cm.
The interior fit-out is by Oryx. Alternatively, I also have two rear pull-outs for Euroboxes that would fit inside as well.
I originally had a Boxio for the toilet and sink, but I can install something else upon request (Clesana or similar).
The robust 4.0-liter V6 gasoline engine (1GR-FE) with 232 PS is a globally proven, straightforward chain-driven engine without sensitive exhaust or electronic components. Combined with a ladder frame, solid axles, a reduction gearbox, and 100% locking differentials on both axles, the GRJ78 is one of the most capable and reliable vehicles for long-distance travel and off-road tours. Worldwide. Equipped with two fuel tanks from the factory, it’s well-suited for long distances. With a height of just 2.30 m, the vehicle also fits in many garages, on any ferry, and in shipping containers.

Why this vehicle?
The GRJ78 with a gasoline engine is the ideal travel vehicle for 1–2 people—rare in this country, but common worldwide. Nevertheless, any Toyota dealership can order parts and perform repairs. A very sensible choice, especially for long-distance travel. The 1GR-FE V6 is considered one of Toyota’s most durable engines; it doesn’t require a particulate filter or AdBlue. It can be refueled and repaired anywhere in the world.
