    Almost bought a 212bhp Willy

    How much did he want? If it is a real minter just take the NOS off. Trust me youll save yourself a shed load of time. Some people take years looking for a decent Williams. Its not uncommon for a Williams to make that sort of power. I beleive Flaming Monkeys Willy made 131 BHP atw at a recent...

    valver or williams 1

    It group 17. Will cost the same a s a Valver to run. Overall a much more accomplished car than the Valver. Isnt much better in any respect but add together all the little refinments and its a better complete package. If you buy a bad example will cost anything as low as £1K If you go mid...

    Its worth whatever you want to pay. If you see a good one id pay whatever it takes as the dont become available very often.

    valver or williams 1

    Yeah got to agree, 13 BHP isnt worth the extra cash. I mean who wants a car that holds its value, is rare, gets lots of attention, has a famous name, outperforms most modern cars in its class, is economical, its serious fun and is worth more than an eqivalent valver even after its been written...

    The harder you drive the car the more it will wear. The more tuned it is the harder it will be driven. Therefore, all things being equal, the more tuned an engine the quicker it will wear. Plus you can build up a picture of the person who drives the car from what is done to it. Fitting NOS...

    Neither do fast road cams damage the engine, but i wouldnt buy a Williams with fast road cams. When buying a Williams standard is the name of the game. Only two types buy tuned Williams 1. Paul Mitchel (after they have been wrapped around a tree) 2. Fools IMO of course;)

    If NOS has been fitted it gives you an idea about how the car has been driven. I doubt this guy ever takes it easy. If you want a Williams you are better getting one owned by a middle aged man, completely standard, which has been used with respect. If you want it to be trouble free and last, i...

    Newbie flame-ball thread - Lowering = poo

    Just out of interest does anyone claim here to have an ideal or as near ideal setup for dry weather driving from coilovers? Ie has anyone found the sweet spot for coilovers in the dry (in talking about road use)? Or to put it another way has anyone pushed the envolope of setup to a fairly...

    Newbie flame-ball thread - Lowering = poo

    Ok lets just agree to disagree. Those who want to lower their car do so. We conceed that the handling may be improved under certain circumstances*. Those who dont want to lower there car dont. And while the lowering posse is pissing about with coilovers in some dark garage somewhere, well...
