That's terrible and hillarious at the same time.

I just love stuff like that when the recipient of the piss-take has no idea

Always get good comments when out and about in the Clubby Van. But nothing compares to the reaction of driving a Moke.
On one trip to North-western NSW, we arrived in the opal minig town of White Cliffs (280-odd km north-east of Broken Hill). We parked in the main street (actually, about the only street) and these two tourists came up to us, a guy and a girl. (I was surprised to even see tourists up there) They spoke with strong US accents and began asking everything about the Moke, ending up with photos of the two of them in it. They went away saying the best thing about White Cliffs was seeing this strange little car! I was quite chuffed.
But, that is just one of many, many good stories from my days with the Moke.....
I really must get my backside into gear and get it back on the road.

Yes Ross Noble, he's a very funny individual.

Hay, it's not about the car, it's not about the venue, it's about the people that come here. Peter Dwyer, Mayor of Hay NSW.

Just thinking back on the way to Hay one year i was sitting at a set of lights in Wagga, i was in my Galant VR4 with the MK1 on the trailer (the only way 2 fly) i had a guy in another VR4 on one side & a guy in a mini on the other, there were more thumbs up & heys that you could poke a stick at, they both followed me into Macca's & dribbled on both my cars while i had lunch. I safely say that would never happen again.

back in 1991 when i was at uni, there was a charming lass who was into cars, and had a pretty wild 78 celica. i had a mate in the mini and when we came to an intersection, she and her mate saw us, so i revved it up and dropped the clutch, while my mate hung out the window making gestures like he was paddling a canoe. when we met them around the corner, she said it was the cutest 1 wheel burnout she had ever seen made my day
