1965 Austin Mini Moke

Highlights

  • Only 515 miles covered since full professional restoration
  • Passed recent MOT with no issues
  • Fitted with 12” mini lite wheels and new tyres
  • Upgraded to keep up with modern traffic
  • Advisory-free MOT valid until November 2024

The Appeal

Born out of a failed military vehicle project, the Mini Moke quickly found a niche as a fun, quirky beach car, gaining a cult following in the process. Matching the conventional Mini's go-kart-like handling, the open-topped, door-less Moke really was like driving a go-kart on the road.

This 1965 example benefits from a recent painstaking restoration, completed just 515 miles ago. While it left the factory with a diminutive 848 cc this Moke now boasts vastly superior performance, thanks from an engine upgrade to 1389 cc.
