Clubs
The Mini Moke Club
The Mini Moke Club is one of Europe's main clubs for the Mini Moke. Their aim is to have as much fun as possible and to this end they arrange days and weekends that will keep all members, young and old, happy. They produce an award-winning magazine five times a year, which is packed with archive features, unusual stories, regional reports and a "For Sale" and "Wanted" column. Their spares and regalia sections aim to provide the most comprehensive service to help find that elusive part for your Moke or the right clothing to keep you looking fashionable. The Mini Moke Club is run entirely by volunteers and is open to people of all ages whether Moke owners or not.

A wonderful story about a 1966 Moke that was purchased in 2002 for $500...it had to be dug out from under a woodpile and the various rats, redbacks and hornets removed before being loaded onto a tilt-tray and taken to its new home. This site also includes some excellent tips with pictures.
