About us:

Jon Vicker is Caterham at Millwood. Jon opened City Speed Centre in Gloucester in 1969 - a business well known for the sale of specialised motorsport parts that expanded into the sale of performance cars - more specifically the RS Ford Models that are so evocative of the 70s. With the demise of the RS product in the early 80s Jon sought a new challenge and in 1984 acquired Woodmancote Garage, a Rover franchise in Dursley. The next 14 years saw many changes for Rover with a succession of owners that culminated with BMW and finally the termination of Woodmancote's Rover franchise in 1997.

"For some while I had been interested in the application and development of the Rover K series engine in the '7' and Caterham's success with this combination in Motorsport" says Jon. "I had several meetings with Jez Coates at the factory and I was delighted when Woodmancote Garage was awarded a Sales and Service Franchise in 1998." In 1999 Woodmancote Garage was sold and Mill Garage, with extensive premises, was acquired. Millwood Motor Company was born. 

In 2008 the site at Millwood was extensively re-developed with an all-new Shell forecourt and a bespoke Caterham showroom - the premises that Millwood Caterham trades from today.

We sell pre-owned cars, with a selection of road focused 7's that are amongst the best available anywhere. We are enthusiastic buyers of Caterham both from private owners and the trade. Please call or email us with a detailed and accurate description for an underwrite, that we will settle immediately. We also have full onsite service facilities to care for your Caterham.

You will receive a genuinely personal and professional service from a company committed to the Caterham experience. We don't only sell Caterham in the UK. We specialise in overseas sales and by priory arrangement, we can organise delivery within the UK and 
shipping to any offshore location. 

We don't just buy Caterham cars, we can do more. By prior arrangement we can organise the inspection of your cars on your premises and also subsequent collection if required.

The personal service we offer dictates that on occasions the showroom is closed during normal business hours whilst we are delivering another Seven.
