From a British classic to a Caribbean icon, Moke has become the ""must-have"" emblem of carefree chic. Originally intended for the military it was later brought out for civilian use. This 1994 Mini Moke Cagiva is one of the last ""genuine"" Mokes built, and was freshly ""recommissioned"". Mokes were produced from 1964-93, first in England, then in Australia and finally in Portugal. In 1990, the Moke name and rights were sold to Cagiva, an Italian motorcycle manufacturer. Production then continued in Portugal under the Cagiva name until late 1994 and classic Moke production ended once and for all. This example is powered by the MINI 998cc 4-cyl engine, backed by a 4-spd manual trans and is driven by front wheel drive. This example was discovered in Bari, Italy, in 2002 and was subsequently imported to the U.S. Since then, this Moke has undergone an extensive freshening that included flushing and renewing all fluids, replacement of all rubber parts subject to aging, including tires and a major tune-up, which included rebuilding the SU carburetor and many other detail items. It includes a new top and side curtains, and wait till you drive one! Oh, sure, they're fun with flat, zappy cornering and the feeling of speed thanks to the engine and your backside being just inches off the ground, performance is actually quite leisurely and this Moke is a dream. Imagine bipp'n around your summer spread in this little guy! Life is short, enjoy your ""ride!""
