Wp & Callum for Gandy
In a stunning collaboration between legendary automotive design and engineering house CALLUM and renowned bespoke car specialists Wood and Pickett, the Wood and Pickett Mini by CALLUM has been unveiled as the very first car for international style icon and automotive enthusiast, David Gandy.
Known globally for his impeccable taste and passion for performance and heritage, Gandy’s decision to drive this bespoke creation marks a defining moment in the car’s journey, from concept to road-ready reality. His involvement underscores a shared commitment to craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless design.
“The Wood and Pickett Mini by CALLUM embodies everything I love about automotive craftsmanship, bespoke, attention to detail, and, of course, performance. I’m proud to be the first owner of such a remarkable vehicle.”

Engineered for the Enthusiast
Beneath the bonnet, performance meets precision. A newly rebuilt 1310cc Stage 3 road/rally engine delivers a 110 BHP, paired with a reengineered gearbox and re-tuned ECU for responsive power delivery. Highlights include a new performance cylinder head, twin-point injection, and a bespoke twin-exit exhaust system with a distinctive upswept tailpipe design.
Handling has been fine-tuned for modern comfort and control with a road tuned suspension kit, upgraded brakes featuring vented and grooved 8.4” discs, and CALLUM designed 13” alloy wheels developed specifically for the project. Improvements to noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) ensure that luxury meets performance in every mile.
“The Mini is one of the most important cars ever created not just for its innovative engineering, but for what it represents culturally as a symbol of British ingenuity and style. It’s a car that broke the rules and became a global icon. To reimagine it through the lens of CALLUM, with Wood and Pickett’s craftsmanship, has been deeply rewarding.”
— Ian Callum, design director at CALLUM
