AEM (1987 automobile)

The AEM (Automotive Engineering and Manufacturing) Scout was a Welsh-built version of the Mini Moke, updated with new, zinc-coated bodywork. It was made for only one year, 1987.

The Scout had a chequered history having previously been made by Import Export of Spalding, Lincolnshire between 1983 and 1985 and after the demise of AEM the design was taken up by The Sun Motor Company of Solihull from 1990 to 1991. Six wheel versions were also made.

Some Die hard fans of Mini Mokes, consider this to be a type of Mini Scamp, rather than an updated or unique version of the Mini Moke. Others however feel that as it contains many similar features, and the only real change is the metal alloy used in the body work it is a unique work, or a type of Mini Moke
