Yeah, not happening. Unless they start selling kit car versions. Which they should. It would be worth moving to St. Kitts, to be able to have one, I think.
Back in '85 (I think) I worked with a guy who had the first Samurai in the region. No one was selling them in the Carolinas. He and his dad were buying them wherever they were available and reselling them here for a profit. I thought it was one of the coolest things I had ever seen. Of course, I had a TR7 then. We did some ridiculous urban 4-wheeling that should have gotten us imprisoned.
Mine was built a little... Ended up with about 14 inches of lift, on 33" Swampers, 8.5:1 low range transfer case, trussed and built axles, and kept the 1.3, but that was built up a little too. The thing would go anywhere, but it came to a point where it broke every time I would drive it... So I junked it and bought the current engine in the Rat-MINI.
Umm... I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but that is not a Mini Moke. In fact, there is no Mini in it. It's a Chinese knockoff of a Mini Moke, and not a very good one at that. If you know anything about what a genuine Moke looks like (all the way from the original Austin/Morris Mokes, to the Leyland Mokes of Australia, to the final Cagiva Mokes build in Portugal), you'll notice that this copy has its proportions all wrong. Plus its got a generic Chinese Chery engine instead of the trusty A-series and a solid beam rear instead of the real Moke's trailing arm rear suspension. And this isn't the only fake Moke out there - more than one Chinese company is cranking these out.
