Mike Collingburn sadly passed away on 14th March, he was 78. He died peacefully at home surrounded by close family. A unique and skilled craftsman who went his own way in life. He will be missed and fondly remembered by his family and friends.

I bought my fist set of seats from Mike over 50 years ago.
My condolences to the family for their sad loss.

So sorry to hear this sad news, James. His legendary craftmanship, wit, and humor will live on in our little MG world for quite some time. Hopefully he's reunited with the spirit of Rose.

What sad news. My condolences to you, James, and your family.
Many years ago I had such a happy day in Richmond meeting you and Mike when collecting my trim kit ahead of the delivery of my superb seats. You were both so generous with your time, knowledge and great humour. Cherished memories. Thank you Mike and thank you James.
