1989-1997 Toyota Landcruiser 80 Series review
80 Series featured a new automatic transmission first gear lock-out for improved traction on slippery surfaces, and a revamped dashboard. A CD player is fitted to all GXL and Sahara models, whilst cruise control is standard equipment on the turbo diesel GXL and all Sahara models.
Externally the LandCruiser has a new front bumper with larger air ducts for improved cooling and a new grille design, with a Toyota logo mounted in the centre.
Security is on the list of 80 Series improvements, with the Toyota Vehicle Security System (TVSS) available as an option. TVSS incorporates an engine immobiliser, alarm and a perimeter radar sensor to detect loitering around the vehicle.
