    Macau Renting a Mini Moke?

    Does anyone know if you can still rent a Mini Moke in Macau? Or have they all gone?

    Will be taking the Cotai Ferry tomorrow and would love to pick up a Moke for a bit of whirl. Info online seems unconvincing it's still possible.

    hmm seems u cant rent them anymore due to safety laws that came in effect around 2006-2007

    The car also found a market in Macau, where it became the official transport for the local police; the Happy-Rent-a-Car company also owned 43 of the vehicles, which were made available for hire until February 2006 when they were outlawed by new car safety laws.[8][22] The Macau branch of the car rental company Avis ran a fleet of Moke look-alike "CUBs" until July 2007.

    Yes they were. I remember hiring one a decade ago.
