70 Series overland vehicle for sale

We are Andrew and Jenny, and the sad day has come to sell our Land Cruiser. After witnessing it’s legendary 4×4 performance in action we dubbed it the Honey Badger, and it’s been an amazing companion through many travels. It has taken us to East Africa and back twice, and through the remote corners of Southern Africa, all without fuss or trouble.

The vehicle was previously part of the Bushlore rental fleet, known for their thorough maintenance. As the second owners we have always cared for the vehicle to a high standard, to ensure we can travel solo to remote areas without worry of being stranded.

We’ve absolutely loved the Honey Badger, but we’ve decided to change to Troopy to gain a bit of interior living space during off season travel. The 79 has heaps of life left and is ready for its next owner to take it across the map. It’s been an amazing, reliable Cruiser that we’re sad to see go.
