A little piece of Wood & Pickett history has just resurfaced… 👀
We spotted this incredible Wood & Pickett Mini Margrave on an auction site where it recently sold for £28,750. Built in 1990, the original owner spent over £12,000 on the build alone, finished in stunning Rolls-Royce Midnight Blue.
A few standout details of this rare machine:
🚗 1,298cc balanced MG Metro engine by Avonbar
💺 Magnolia leather Recaro LX seats with blue piping
🪵 Walnut dashboard with VDO instruments & Blaupunkt sound
🪞 Electrically operated Ferrari 308 wing mirrors
🧼 Fully smoothed body seams for that signature Margrave finish
The backstory? The build wasn't finished before Wood & Pickett entered administration in March 1990. The owner paid to finish it, bought it from the administrators for £9,495.75, and gifted it to his wife... who promptly preferred her Mazda MX-5! 😂
It spent decades tucked away and has covered just 2,606 miles since.
From cars built for Elton John and Mick Jagger to legends like this one—classic coachbuilding at its finest.
