Green painted ex-military vehicles allowed in Morocco?

Someone in southern Spain is asking me about an ex-mil G-Wagen still in original army green being allowed into Morocco. To save time I'm asking for them.
It's been converted to a camper and looks like one, but it's still green.
Does anyone know if they'll have problems?
I'm sure it's been asked here before but rules may have hardened/changed.
I know years ago I overpainted my 101FC for similar reasons, but that was Algeria.

I Don’t think it’s a problem any more

Overlandbirds just entered Mauritania after 3 months in Morocco in their Landrover ambulance camper in military green and I know another ex army green truck was there early October without any issues

I met a couple traveling with a landrover military ambulance in 2017. The military vehicule itself was not a no problem entering in Morocco and going down the west coast of Africa.


If you think you will be bored at the border, put a world map on your truck showing "West Sahara" on it. You will have more entertainment from officials

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
