Toyota Land Cruiser, the off-road workhorse



The Land Cruiser is one of Toyota's all-time classic. It is a very reliable and robust off-roader which competes with the classic Jeep and a very common sight in South America, Africa and the parts of the World, where transport is a challenge due to bad road conditions or extreme weather.
The Majorette version of this great model first appeared in 1982 as a part of Series 200. It has a full-metal body, opening rear window, big wheels (this car made for off-road of course), a drawbar and a great suspension.
 These two come from a Hungarian auction site, called Vatera in a pack of other Majorette cars. The side stickers are almost missing on the brown-one, however, the painting and the car is in a good condition. The white one is a promotional model, probably given as a gift, with a unique logo on its roof.

Saab 900 is a great classic. It is also true for its small version created by Majorette. The model appeared first in 1983 in Majorette's catalog. It came in various colors: green, black, metallic grey. It has superb suspension and opening doors. The trunk doesn't open, but you can see tennis-stuff packed in the boot. It is a nice feature. The car has a drawbar, and it is able to tow a Caravan. The Caravan is a St Tropez one, it appeared around 1978 in Majorette catalogs paired with a Ford Capri or Renault 18 in yellow or white base color, and seaside or music themed graphics. This one has waves painted on its side. It's door missing but in a nice overall condition. The Saab's painting also worn a bit, but its suspension and doors work fine. You can find both models as part of eBay auctions Saab is more or less a common vintage majorette diecast which appears on eBay. It's price varies but doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
