Mini Moke


Been car shopping today with my wife and we came across this lovely old Morris Mini Moke in the showroom. I asked about it and it is apparently going to be used in an upcoming promotion day next month in the Scottish Borders.


The Mini Moke has a bit of a chequered history, with original Mini designer Sir Alec Issigonis having tried to unsuccessfully design a vehicle for military use before marketing it as a beach-buggy type runabout.

However, whenever I see one it brings back memories of the TV show The Prisoner with Patrick McGoohan as several of the small vehicles feature as transport in the programme.




There is also a UK Owners Club with details here
