......Proud owner of one. It's close to 16 months old and not even a simple cough. The car is a work horse!. Now, they promised a new model and i remember seeing a pix of the prototype. Something close to a Jeep Wrangler. Is that what is coming? Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Just a wish, I for one would consider one for roundi za ku hustle tao,

I can see that engine is stamped Toyota.

In the Kenyan market, 100-200k makes a big difference. If Mobius can scale up their business it might perhaps make sense to buy a production license from an existing brand. Something similar to Peugeot and Marshalls back in the day.

I am considering putting a deposit on one Mobius 2 expected delivery is around 4 -5 months away.
For those who managed to buy the first production, how is the experience so far ? Have you had to replace any parts ?

According to the Mobius team, they have a few hundred interested so on launch date, they will probably have the first 500 - 1000 units booked.

I pre-ordered the 1.57m version. Waiting for prototype promised in August 20118. Life is short. Live passionately.
