Preview: Rejuvenated Mini Moke



Quote:
With the recent reveal of the all-new Mark II Mini Cooper Cabrio, there is speculation once again that the utilitarian Mini Moke could make a return. The original Moke, released back in 1964 and based on the existing Mini model at its time, was designed as a prototype for a light military vehicle.

However, its relatively small stature, low ground-clearance, and miniscule wheels meant that it never saw any action. Instead, the car was developed for public sale as a low-cost recreational vehicle and quickly became popular with beachgoers.

Re: Preview: Rejuvenated Mini Moke

Re: Preview: Rejuvenated Mini Moke
