As above! Show prices are almost always cheaper than the catalogue prices. Plus you have the added extra of not having to worry about P&P charges! ;D
Welcome to the Forum by the way! Im from Gorseinon! ;D

Hi. Welcome on board.. I beleive i spoke to you at Raglan services back in October. It was you who bought that Aussie Clubby if i remember correctly. I'm pretty sure the door skins are the same as UK doors. I've got a contact in Australia who could verify if that is the case.

Having found some side on pics it looks as if the MK1/2 doorskins would be more suitable.. The front lower corner of the doorskin is rounded as per earlier 60's Minis.

I'm pretty sure the Aussie clubman door skins are different to anything made in the UK, I dont know the exact difference but I'm sure I have read it somewhere.

yep, just had another look at the pic and it came back to me, the Aussie clubman doors not only had external hinges but were fitted with marina ? door handles. I've never seen them advertised though

My contact down under tells me that the MK1/2 doorskins were used on all the Aussie built Minis and clubbies. It is possible to modify the early skins to suit.
