The Toyota Land Cruiser has been the king of the SUV market in the UAE. In 2021, the Japanese SUV was the best selling vehicle in the region. Among all the Land Cruiser owners in the UAE, Samson Gilbret De Souza stands out.
Samson Gilbret De Souza bought a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado J90 Series back in 1998 and since then has kept it in pristine condition. He has been servicing the car from Al-Futtaim Toyota to make sure that the V6 SUV runs as good as new.
Honoring De Souza’s love for his trusted SUV, Al-Futtaim Toyota has given him a free one-year service package covering two service intervals for his Land Cruiser Prado.
Commenting on his beloved Prado, De Souza said: “It was 25 years ago that I found this masterpiece of a car, the 2nd generation of Prado, a practical four-wheel-drive which was just introduced back in 1998. I have loved driving this car off-road through Hatta and Jebel Jais mountains and during rainy days as I feel I was always in control with the car.”
De Souza also said that the Land Cruiser is his children’s favourite car and that it holds a lot of sentimental value for him. We’re not crying, you are crying…
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank Al-Futtaim, who made me feel happy and stress-free to service this car and I am hoping to keep this car on the road for the next 25 years to come!”
