Right-hand drive, diesel power, Colorado title, and three-row Prado EX equipment give this 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado a lot of character in a compact 70-series package. Located in Denver, Colorado and offered by a private seller with a clean title, this Japanese-market Prado shows approximately 205,000 kilometers / 128,000 miles and is powered by a 2.4L 2L-TE turbo-diesel inline-four paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and 4x4 drivetrain. Equipment includes electronically adjustable suspension, side steps, power sunroof, cloth upholstery, folding third-row seats, air conditioning, LED headlights, ATOTO touchscreen head unit, aftermarket exhaust, a Yakima roof basket, three keys, owner’s manual, service records, USB digital service manual, rubber mats, full-size spare, and 3D-printed cupholder.
  • JDM Prado EX With Colorado Title: This is a right-hand-drive Japanese-market Land Cruiser Prado EX titled in Colorado. It uses a metric instrument cluster, with the odometer showing approximately 205,000 kilometers, or about 128,000 miles.
  • 2L-TE Turbo Diesel: Power comes from Toyota’s 2.4L 2L-TE turbo-diesel inline-four, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and 2-speed transfer case. The 2L-TE may not be the fastest engine off the line, but it fits the Prado’s mission: compact size, diesel efficiency, and simple four-wheel-drive reliability.
  • Recent Diesel Maintenance: Recent work includes a battery in 2026, fuel pump replacement in December 2025, rear brake pads and rotors in 2025, timing belt and fuel pump service in December 2024, and fuel injectors in August 2023. 
  • Prado EX Equipment: The EX trim gives this Land Cruiser a useful mix of utility and comfort, including electronically adjustable suspension, side steps, power sunroof, cloth seating, folding third-row seats, and air conditioning. Modifications are limited and practical, with LED headlights, an ATOTO touchscreen head unit, and aftermarket exhaust.
  • Known Ownership and Included Items: The seller purchased this Prado in October 2024 and notes that it was imported to the U.S. before current ownership. The sale includes three keys, owner’s manual, service records, USB stick with digital service manual, full-size spare, rubber mats, roof basket, and 3D-printed cupholder.
About the J70 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado
The first-generation Land Cruiser Prado arrived in 1990 as a smaller, lighter alternative to Toyota’s full-size Land Cruiser. It shared the broader 70-series family connection but offered a more approachable SUV layout, with two- and four-door body styles, diesel engine options, and a cabin aimed at buyers who wanted real 4x4 ability without the size and weight of an 80-series.

For U.S. buyers, the early Prado is appealing because it feels familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. It has the diesel, right-hand-drive, narrow-body JDM character that makes imported Toyotas interesting, while still offering Toyota 4x4 durability, three-row practicality, a usable automatic transmission, and parts-bin simplicity in many areas.
