LandCruiser 40th.

1998 is the 40th anniversary of Toyota LandCruiser in Australia. The first LandCruiser to be imported into Australia was an FJ25 SWB soft-top brought in by Thiess Toyota.

The anniversary edition was released in August 1997. It is an 80-series GXL wagon with ABS brakes, full-time four wheel drive and viscous coupled centre differential, and alloy wheels. There is a choice of Toyota's 4.5L twin-cam petrol ($53,870 manual, $56,590 auto), 4.2L sohv diesel ($56,100 manual), and 4.2L 4-valve/cyl turbo-charged diesel ($68,420 manual, $73,890 auto) engines. Twin air-bags are optional.

It might be churlish, but the choice of a 70-series LandCruiser would seem more appropriate.
