History

The Mini Moke came about originally as a proposal for a light military vehicle in the style of the American Jeep, but its small tires and low ground clearance made it impractical as an off-road vehicle. It was then offered in a civilian version as a low cost, easily maintained, utility vehicle. The Moke used engine, transmission and suspension that was identical to the basic Mini, with low-end 850cc engine and the same ten-inch wheels. searchthinktargetcom.
