I had cause to pull my 1997 copy of the Mini Car Clinic catalogue to try to locate some information on parts.
In doing so I wondered what had become of Paul Skinner and all the stock of the shop that was included in the catalogue.
Does anyone have anyone have any knowledge?

Cheers

I called there shortly after it closed. Paul had passed away by then.
Tony (?) was still working in the workshop beside the shop. He said the business belonged to Northern Mini Parts in Melbourne, and the stock was to be packed and sent there. John Smidt had been involved briefly with this business after closing his original Mini King site.

There will be others here who will know a lot more. Hope to hear from them too.
