Was thinking of going to Northern Mini Parts tomorrow.

It's a bit of a hike from where I am, does anyone know if its an interesting place to visit?

ie: plenty of things to look at?

I've seen the pics from the old premises, is the new one anything like it?

Thanks for any advise.

You mean Northern Mini parts in Melbourne?

Their NSW shop in Padstow (was previously the Mini Car Clinic) closed ages ago.

You can go and visit him in croydon, but i think he is currently overseas. And its best to ring and see if he is in before you go.
