2001 Toyota Hilux LN147R Single Cab Chassis - Silver - 292,992km - 3.0L Turbo Diesel, Manual
Overview
The Toyota Hilux LN147R represents a generation of Japanese light commercial vehicles built for genuine work. This 2001 model is a single cab chassis variant, the workhorse configuration favoured by tradies, farmers, and small business operators who need a tray platform for custom builds or payload work. The LN147R series, produced from 1997 to 2005, is known for robust engineering, reliability, and longevity in Australian conditions. With a 3.0-litre turbocharged diesel inline four-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, this Hilux delivers the torque and simplicity that made the model iconic in the light commercial segment.
This example presents as a genuine working vehicle with 292,992 kilometres on the odometer. The silver exterior is clean and presentable, with the cab showing honest age-appropriate wear consistent with two decades of use. The tray bed is original and functional, displaying the patina of a vehicle that has earned its kilometres. The interior is spartan but complete, with a three-seat configuration (driver plus two passengers) and manual windows and locks typical of the era. The owner's manual is present. This is not a showpiece; it is a capable, honest commercial vehicle with life left in it.
At the 2001 Hilux price guide of approximately $4,500 to $6,500, this represents fair value for a working single cab chassis with documented service history visible in the logbook. The turbo diesel engine is known for strong mid-range torque and reasonable fuel economy, making it suitable for towing or payload work. For a buyer seeking a straightforward, proven platform for a tray canopy, toolbox setup, or custom build, this LN147R offers genuine utility without the premium of a newer model.
Condition
The silver metallic paint is clean across all visible panels with minor stone chipping on the bonnet leading edge, consistent with highway use. Panel gaps are even and the cab structure is straight with no obvious dents or creases. The windscreen is intact and clear. The tray bed is original and functional; the floor shows surface corrosion and wear marks from years of loading and unloading, which is normal for a working vehicle of this age. The tray sides are straight and secure. Wheels are steel with good tread depth on the tyres fitted. The spare wheel is present and mounted under the chassis. Interior upholstery on the bench seat shows wear to the bolsters and minor fading, consistent with age and sun exposure. The dashboard is intact with no obvious cracks. The steering wheel shows wear from use. All gauges and warning lights function as expected when the ignition is turned on. The engine bay is clean and well-maintained, with no obvious leaks or modifications. Fluid levels are appropriate. The engine starts and runs smoothly.
