Good history fileThis immaculate little Spruce Green Mokeis possibly the best example availableThe Mini Moke is famed for its versatility and classic design. Built in the UK between 1964 and 1968, it was originally conceived as a lightweight military vehicle, utilising parts from the Minivan, however, as the Mini became successful, so the Mini Moke gained a sort of cult status, later becoming popular as a low maintenance recreational car. Despite this, it is estimated that only 1,500 vehicles were produced for the home market, including this car. Popular as a beach buggy in island destinations such as the Seychelles and Barbados, these great little vehicles were once also used as the official transport for the local police in Macau!This right-hand driveMini Moke retainsits original Mk1features such as the single windscreen wiper and floor mounted headlight dip-switch and remainsin its production colour of Spruce Green with green trim.

Class winner at the Mini Cooper Register Day, Beaulieu 2015, it truly represents an opportunity for its new owner to enjoy all manner of open-air escapades.
