Seller's Notes

This Leyland Moke is a vibrant example of the characterful utility vehicle, offered with low owners from new but having been used and maintained as intended. It is powered by a transversely mounted 998cc inline-four, producing around 29kW and sending it to the front wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. The odometer shows 299,550 kilometres. This Moke is finished in a vibrant shade of orange over with white roll hoop, bumper bars, and wheels, over a black vinyl-trimmed interior, featuring exposed body-coloured panels. It rides on 13-inch white Sunraysia steel wheels, which are fitted with Superia Ecoblue HP tyres. The specification includes electric windscreen wipers, a three-spoke steering wheel, a Smiths speedometer, heater controls, and a driver’s side rear-view mirror. The car will be supplied with its original paperwork and user guide, the warranty identification certificate, and the rear-mounted spare wheel. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: there is some minor surface rust on the driver’s side floor pan, while inside presents very well with no obvious wear and tear; the brakes are not too good and could us a bleed. The car’s last inspection of roadworthiness was conducted in 2021, during which the seller reports that no warnings or advisory items were noted. This Moke’s most recent service was carried out in September 2021 at 299,000 km. The work comprised of the replacement of the wiper switch, tail lights, sealed beam headlights, alternator, wiper switch, wiper jet, rollbar, left and right side screens, front bull bar, seatbelts, and wheels, as well as the removal, cleaning, and restoration of the fuel tank. This Leyland Moke is a usable example of the characterful utility and recreational vehicle, offered in a vibrant colour scheme and recently enhanced with a number of replacement parts. Full of character and noted to be driving well, it would make a smart addition to any assembly of classics, and a fun and capable companion for weekend drives and fair-weather tours. The description of this consignment is, to the best of the seller’s knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Collecting Cars requests a range of detail about the lot from the seller and performs a level of due diligence. However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description. Potential buyers should view or arrange inspections as well as conduct any research they feel is necessary before committing to bid or buy. Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible vehicles to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, either to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be undetectable even upon visual inspection. Unless there is an explicit statement by the seller to the contrary, please assume that any vehicle could have had bodywork or paintwork during its life. Furthermore, photographs may not reflect the true colour or full condition of the vehicle. It is a bidder’s responsibility to satisfy themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy. This includes by raising enquiries with the seller in the comments section. For vehicles, unless otherwise stated, potential buyers should also assume that any cherished registration may be retained by the seller. Please see our Terms and Conditions for full details. This vehicle’s VIN has been checked against the Australian Personal Property Securities Register, and there is no security interest or other registration kind logged against the serial number.
