Mini Moke: You've Got to be Moking

  • Summary

  • The Mini Moke wasn't just a car, it was an oddball on wheels, automotive fun in its simplest form.

    Originally designed as an army runabout, it never quite made the cut... but somehow found its place in beach towns, resorts, a few Bond films, and even Bass Strait.

    With no doors, no roof, and barely even an engine, somehow it defied the odds and became a cult classic, perfect for sun-soaked adventures in places like Magnetic Island and the Gold Coast.

    The Moke was a ride of cheap thrills, a sense of adventure, and a cheeky personality in a comically small package.

    In this episode, discover how a car that wasn’t very good at anything somehow became kind of perfect for everything — if you didn’t mind a bit of sunburn along the way.
