Hi all and greetings from Greece!
I'm about to buy a 2006 Prado 120 1GR-FE Grande here in Greece with 89000 km.
The seller claims he hasn't moved the cat for quite some time because it belonged to a relative who passed.
Went to the Toyota dealer and after extensive checkup they said with confidence that the engine is in top condition (some images of the diagnostics attached).
The air suspension bags are also in very good condition (which might be a costly thing in maintenance).
My only concern is that there are many signs of flush rust and corrosion under the car which makes me believe it was sitting outdoors for a long time.
I would really appreciate any pointers towards if it is something to worry about or not.
Bellow the photos attached with the rusty stuff:
