Originally intended for military service, the Mini Moke was never to become an army icon - but certainly became a leisure one. With its perky performance and odd, squat proportions, the little car still managed to handle like a Mini while stripping the formula back to a true utility format. The Mini Moke, as a result, quickly found favour as a fun and practical car for both urban and off-road adventures.
Having been in storage for approximately 40 years, this 1966 Mini Moke has been meticulously restored and resprayed, bringing it back to its former glory. Plenty of cash has been spent bringing this little car back to the road, and has set it up as one of the finest examples we may have seen on Car & Classic.
