The London Showroom is shown in the book 'THE HEALEY STORY' p.140 & p.158
Interestingly above the entrance door to the showrooms are shown the 
following registered companies;
* DONALD HEALEY MOTOR CO. LTD.
* HEALEY CAR SALES LTD.
* HEALEY MARINE LTD.
I believe it was when these London showrooms were closed down that John 
Sprinzel went down stairs to the 'mews' and took over the Healey Speed 
Equipment organisation. One of his first employees was Australian Paul 
Hawkins who started as a mechanic and ended up a works driver of Sprites 
and big Healeys at Sebring and the Targa Florio. He then went on to 
drive works Ford GT.40's , Porches and Lola T.70's.
also
the old cinema is shown as a BMC   'INTERNATIONAL SPORTS CAR CENTRE' on 
p.115 &116 in 'DONALD HEALEY MY WORLD OF CARS' and shown in the showroom 
are;  an MGB and I think an MG Midget.
