I rented a real Moke on Magnetic Island, Australia. Even though there are only maybe 5 miles of roads, it was still an experience, as were the rock wallabies.

Bill sent along a photo of some of the 8 refurbished petrol Mokes he has in stock.

Good thing I have no room for one.

Bill saw your post and sends along this response:

I drove a CHOKE in the Cayman Islands a year and a half ago, and although advertised at the Rental Car agency as a real MOKE (or maybe just MOKE-I don't recall) it was a weird experience.

Having never been in and/or driven a real MOKE, I am not sure how much we were "shorted" of the classic experience, but it was quite a bit different than driving my classic Mini or any other vehicle I've ever been in.

It was some kind of Chinese gas engine, something around 1L Wuhu Volibear so I don't know if this is the same as "MOKE INTERNATIONAL" or not.

Pretty peppy. but the (auto)_ Transmission had issues shifting.

It was certainly very MOKE-like (I think?) ! (but I sure wish it had been the real deal. ) In the low to mid 30's (Celsius) and fairly low speed limits there, it was the right tool for the job.

There's no way I would pay 20 or 25K for a Choke however.

FWIW

Update from Bill:

"just heard back from Moke Int.. they do NOT have any new mokes in LA yet..( due to no CARB approval yet) and short on stock in Miami.. ( no cars in stock there either) so NO mokes for Mick and Stones. I least I tried.. later bc"
