...no its not a thread dedicated to one of P.Diddy's, Puff Daddys or Puff the magic dragon, its the continuation of this thread past - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=482167 now i don't want this thread closing down, opinions are opinions, everybody is welcome to them..however some over enthuse theres...and some people are just wrong

save the debate for other threads...this is about the pictures...

so years ago i owned SDV (as it was known)

i loved the car, but sold it for the right price....always wanted another again as i am really a massvie fan of the mark 1's, so much character, they have SOMETHING the mark 2's - 3's don't,

so whilst the 172 is having the final touches done at BTM Performance and Tour-De-Force...you can't rush perfection...lol (for those that don't know)

i got fed up of asking / relying on others for lifts etc, i asked about to borrow cars, and as you would expect hardly anything....then a friend offered me his williams.

The member who offered it to me is an old school member off here, and the car, well for you knew school members / non locals this car was a bit of a legend.
The member runs his own farm so is constantly busy, expectedly the car doesn't get used much and therefore kind of takes a back seat...
i thought as he so kindly has let me borrow it for a while, why not give it a proper good clean..
i took 2 days off work and set about it yesterday, it took 3 hours to get through the interior yesterday, hoovering, brushing, polishing etc etc...

interior done...

So today was set aside for the exterior, was a pain, dodging the rain, sleet and hail...and freezing wind...lol, had it all today it seemed, i started at 10.30 and finished at 5pm..Autoglym SRP, EGP, then Poorboys Nattys blue....i am quite happy with the outcome...

That's very true. I remember reading an article in TG magazine on the train down to Plymouth years ago and thinking 'those cars look special'.

They definitely have a road presence that the laters cars don't quite manage, imo.
