Description

The Mini Moke was originally designed by Sir Alec Issigonis as a small utility vehicle for the military, however its low ground clearance scuppered it chances of serving its country. Instead, the target market was pivoted to civilians where its unique styling, simple mechanicals, and open-air driving experience proved a huge hit.

This 1973 Austin Mini Moke is an excellent example of the cult favourite. It carries the same suspension, 4-speed manual gearbox and 998cc A-series engine as the standard mini, with drive delivered to the front wheels. Amazingly, this Moke has only covered 4,419 miles from new.

Benefiting from being dry stored, the bodywork and floor panels are incredibly solid and the blue paintwork is presented in excellent condition overall. The dark blue vinyl hood which covers the cabin front to rear shows no sign of wear. The sale also includes the accompanying side panels which can be attached in seconds to enable the cabin to be fully enclosed.

The 13” white wheels provide a nice colour contrast to the exterior, and the tyres retain a decent amount of tread. The rubber arches which sit above all four wheels show some signs of age-related cracks.

Stepping inside, the interior continues the same theme as the exterior presenting in excellent order. The blue vinyl covered front and rear seats show no signs of significant wear and are aesthetically matched to the rest of the car. The simplistic dash is fitted with a combination of speedometer and fuel gauge, switches for the headlights and windscreen wipers, and levers for the choke and fan. All electrics are in perfect working order.

Mechanically, the reliable 998cc engine is in great working order and starts and runs perfectly every time. This Moke received a full service in July last year and stands ready to be enjoyed by its new owner.

This Austin Mini Moke is a unique classic with bags of charm and perfectly suited to Island life. Presented in excellent condition and with very low mileage, it’s a fun weekend or summer cruiser which is continuing to rise in value.
