Appreciating but pace slowing. Patient buyers may find better entry.
Median sold price up 14.2% over the last 12 months. Hold if owned; chasing the trend at peak carries risk.

Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.
Marque analyst note
The FJ40 Land Cruiser median in the Australian market has settled at $88,000, up 14.2 percent over the past year, signaling steady appreciation in an appreciating-classic category. With high confidence in our tracking data, this movement reflects genuine underlying demand rather than volatility.
Moderate liquidity characterizes this segment, with 10 sales recorded over the past twelve months and 5 total transactions in our database. The absence of active listings currently suggests limited immediate supply, though the modest sample size warrants caution in drawing broader conclusions about market tightness.
The FJ40's collectibility score reflects its status as a high-volume production vehicle—320,000 units built globally—which tempers exclusivity but supports broad ownership appeal. Modest demand and moderate desirability indicate the model sits between common utility vehicles and blue-chip collectibles, attracting enthusiasts and practical buyers alike.
Three-year projections point to $118,321, representing 34.5 percent appreciation from current levels. The five-year base case reaches $130,392, or 48.2 percent gain, driven by the model's cultural significance, remaining serviceability, and the gradual scarcity of unmolested original examples.
Recent trading activity aligns with the longer-term trend, suggesting no sudden shifts in buyer behavior or sentiment. The Hold or Wait recommendation reflects a market moving at a measured pace rather than inflecting sharply.
