Movies & TV /2 Comments

It's more Beach Boys than Bond if you ask us.

James Bond is best known for blasting baddies in the face, seducing mega babes, anddriving sexy Aston Martins. While the international undercover hustler has drivena few other notable vehicles, the Moke has to be the least flashy of them all. In March, Land Rovercelebrated 60 years of Bondwith a special rally edition of theLand Rover Defender, and now it's Moke's turn.

This peculiar brand paid tribute to the Bond film series in 2021 with a car inspired by the Moke featured inLive and Let Die, and now it's back with a 60-year anniversary model that looks more Beach Boys than Bond.

The Moke was first intended for the military market, but after failing to make an impression, it found fame on TV and movie screens, and became a popular competitor to the beach buggy. The Moke also has a long running connection with the Bond film series, having starred in movies such asYou Only Live Twice(1967),Live And Let Die(1973),The Spy Who Loved Me(1977) andMoonraker(1979). These no-frills leisure vehicles are about as basic as they come, but the 60th anniversary Moke comes with a few impressive features that you'd expect to see on modern vehicles. The exterior features a midnight blue paint job, a sequence dots tire cover, a Tan Bimini top, and blackout rims.

The interior of this stylish little runabout gets a woodgrain steering wheel, an elegant wooden shifter, a "Mango Tree" wrapped dashboard, and even a backup camera and Bluetooth radio. Under the engine cover sits an all-electric powertrain (perfect for those stealth missions) boasting a top speed of 25 mph and a 40-mile range.

If you want to impress your old golf buddies down in Florida, this will do the trick. But you'll have to fork over $28,975 for the privilege. Just think of all theOctopussyyou'll catch in this thing.
