A reader of MalaysiaMiniLover sent us a few photos of a red hot Mini Moke. This Mini Moke looks very spicy because of the chilli red exterior. Far away, you can clearly see the car is fitted with 13 x 7 minilite sport wheels. It makes the car looks bigger and feel more stable on the ground. According to the owner, doing a complete colour change cost him a lot. It is also very time-consuming and a real hassle to rebuild the whole car.
Mini Moke was built in between 1964 and 1968. It appears in the Mini MK 1 generation. Originally, it was built for light off road usage, however, you see most of them are already on the road today as a classic car.
On occasion the owner of this Mini Moke drives the car from his house to a recreation park. He doesn’t know how many miles he covers because the odometer has stopped working. See also: 1989 Mini Thirty (Mini 30)
Underneath, this Mini Moke is powered by a 848cc engine which has a very good fuel consumption compared to the newer 1275cc engine. After all you can’t go too fast in a Moke, isn’t it? Suspension wise, the moke runs a standard fully rebuilt dry suspension but with gas shocks, nylon bushes and adjustable tie bars.
Take a look at the interior, not much compared to a standard Mini deluxe because there is no door or hard roof. Two plastic front seats and a set of PVC rear seat. The reason the owner uses plastic front seats is to handle the heavy rain scene that always happen. Last but not least, check out this crazy fourteen seater Mini Moke!

Fourteen Seater Mini Moke
The legendary BMC Mini Moke is always a fun car to customize due to its unique appearance – roof-less, door-less, and small-size jeep style but impractical to go off-road. Here we spotted a fourteen-seater six-wheeled Mini Moke somewhere on earth. Pictures are provided and it doesn’t really matter where it is right?
The owner customizes the car with six 13” x 7” Minilite wheels and fourteen yellow plastic seats. The use of plastic seats is to deal with the rain water. Plastic seats are water proof and it is easy to clean if they are wet. The body of the car has been stretched to fit these seats and the length is two times longer than a standard British Moke. We have seen many Moke fans customize their car with cage-style and stretched body with six-wheels, but this yellow fourteen seater moke is the first time and it is one of its kinds. We do not have the details about the engine and powertrain but it could be difficult and slow for a 1300cc engine to pickup fourteen passengers. Slow of fast doesn’t really matter as long as the car bring us to the desire destination, isn’t?
