Wood & Pickett Mini by Callum

The Mini has long been a symbol of British innovation and charm, and the new Wood & Pickett Mini by CALLUM takes that legacy into the modern era with style and precision. This limited-run restomod is the brainchild of legendary designer Ian Callum and the heritage-rich coachbuilders at Wood & Pickett, best known for their iconic Margrave Minis of the 1960s.

Built on a restored Mk5 Sportspack shell, the car features updated aerodynamics with redesigned valances, bold arches, and custom lighting. Under the hood, a rebuilt 1.3L Stage 3 engine delivers 110 hp through a reengineered gearbox, giving this tiny powerhouse serious performance. A road-tuned suspension kit and vented disc brakes ensure modern driving dynamics, while exclusive 13-inch CALLUM-designed wheels round out the package.

Inside, it is all bespoke luxury. A redesigned dash, inspired by the original Margrave Minis, blends analog charm with modern tech like Apple CarPlay. The interior also features CALLUM-trimmed seats, metal bezels, and a distinctive "piano" switch panel, creating a refined, driver-focused cabin.

Each Mini is hand-built in the UK with prices starting at £75,000 ($95,000). No two will be alike, as buyers work directly with CALLUM to customize every detail. With craftsmanship, performance, and history in perfect balance, the Wood & Pickett Mini by CALLUM is a restomod masterpiece made for those who appreciate timeless design reimagined for today.

This iconic British off-roader is powered by a 2.25L engine that has been totally overhauled and rebuilt practically from scratch, so it is better than when it was new because the criteria now followed was more demanding than it was at the time it was originally built. The electrical wiring is also to...
