The MK3 is slightly better looking, I have a friend that has four of them and I will admit to considering buying one many years ago.

Escape Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Are those related to the Mini Moke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a mini based kit car, they loosely resemble the moke but were built in a shed, then assembled by the customer at home using a rotten mini as a donor.

ThreePointFive Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I don't know why but I really want this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155519645760 I don't think we'll see many HiCaps in this condition and as standard as this. They're not making any more of them and most have been run into the ground as working vehicles. If it had stayed under 5k (if no one had seen it!) I'd have bought it and worried about where to keep it/what I'd use it for later. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie69 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Yes.... hi-caps have always been one of the more practical trucks, IMHO. Most of them round here have their beds hanging by a thread, only headlamp, no straight panels and no shocks in evidence. And of course the obligatory bailer twine.

Bowie69 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 In other things, seems like Defender prices are falling, to me? At least the non-leather-and-spinners versions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I saw a 110xs advertised at £17k this morning. 140k on the clock but looked immaculate. Prices do indeed seem to be falling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreePointFive Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Those are brilliant. There have to be some cosmetically-ruined, mechanically-sound Series cars just begging for that conversion. Still, nothing will ever compete with the understated class of this monstrosity fine example: 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
