SUMMARY

A bespoke Mini Cooper, purchased directly from the owner of Wood & Pickett who restored the car and created this totally individual little 'Coop'.

DESCRIPTION

First registered in June 2000, this stunning little Mini has covered just 44,917 miles with superb provenance and bespoke craftsmanship
Our vendor purchased the Mini in 2019 in its current form directly from Mr John Whateley, the owner of legendary Mini coachbuilders Wood & Pickett and the man responsible for building this car to this specification around 2017
Finished in gloss black with a contrasting white roof, combined with a rich tan leather, the car has been built to full Wood & Pickett standards and specification, as one would expect from the owner, incorporating a plethora of upgrades throughout
Special features include a stainless steel twin exhaust, bespoke brightwork, carbon fibre dashboard and numerous subtle W&P enhancements inside and out
The car presents in superb condition, with an incredibly well-aged colour palette and an excellent focus on detail, preserving the original charm of the Mini interior yet enhancing it dramatically. The history file is strong, the ownership is low, the quality is high and the look is almost unparalleled at any price-point
