Don't know really, just seen others do it so thought there may be a reason to! And thanks! Cheers, what do you mean? The pics aren't the best they'd be better on a sunny day I spose! :p

Yeah I love the mk1s, just think the shape of them is so right! Thanks for comments

I am the very proud owner of a Clio Williams 3. Are there any other Williams owners in here? If so show some pics so we can all appreciate the best Clio ever made! Here are some pics of mine.

Thanks for responses, interesting read. Didn't realise how much lighter the cup was, 89kg is a lot! Thought it would be more like 30-40kg difference

Is the 172 Cup lighter than the Ph1 172?

I'm sure this has been covered a hundred times, but what are the weights of the 172 ph1 - 172 ph2 - 172 Cup - 182 - 182 Cup - 182 Trophy. Have I missed a model yet? Any information would be appreciated!

Thanks for responses. So using Supernatural on relatively "un-protected" cars won't harm it at all?

I recently bought Dodo Juice Supernatural Shampoo, I bought it as a general car wash for the main process of washing my car. I've read a lot that Dodo Juice Born to be mild (is that the correct name?) seems to be a popular shampoo. Have I bought the wrong product? Any advice/comments would be...

Thanks - that's exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, love this forum! Do they mainly only do resprays/bodywork fitting or could they give the whole car the once-over ( aka sort out paint swirls, minor defects etc etc - if I wanted to go the whole mile?) Thanks James

I need to get the bonnet on my Williams 3 re-sprayed (due to stone chips), along with a few other touch ups around the bodywork such as minor scuffs etc. Where is the best place to take it to get a proper job done? Obviously I want the colour matching perfectly and the job to be done to a very...

Thanks for responses - car cover looks breathable chip - has those tiny little holes in it, hopefully will garage it in 2-3 months time anyway.

This winter my Williams 3 has had to be parked outside in front of my garage as the garage is full! We bought a cover for it that was relatively cheap (£40 i think?) It fits decently, not amazingly well but it does cover it all up. Am I better not covering it up at all and letting it bare the...

What do you mean by there are several shades of each? Both 449 and 432 have slightly different shades?

Ok thanks for responses!

Getting some bodywork sorted on my Williams 3 shortly (mainly need to get the bonnet resprayed as it has stone chippings, also need some small scuffs sorted out) - Anyway the question is what is the Renault colour code for the Williams 3? Is it 432 or 449? I believe the Williams 1 + 2 are 449...

Thanks for the response - so Group A scuttle is the best, but where can you buy these from? Can't seem to find them anywhere unless im just being an idiot! Any estimates on full price including fitting? Might be hard to estimate I know lol

Which im not! haha, just weighing up the best options for air filter/induction kit for the Willy, really can't decide now! my main priority is BHP/nicely spread power if possible. Not too bothered about induction note although that would be a nice bi product!

Makes sense. I guess the K & N is "open cone" then? So ITG filter is superior to a K & N Filter bass_direct? And also in regards to the scuttle induction - would a performance tuning garage be able to fit this or does it really require specialist fitment? Thanks

Would you not recommend an Induction system such as the K & N Induction kit then? Thanks for the response!

Whats the best Air Filter/Induction Kit for a Williams? Any ideas? Thanks

If they make the ride more forgiving and less body roll why would you prefer standard springs then? haha :D

How much do the Mark fish springs lower it by and how good are they?

Fair enough, I think 16"s also look great on 1*2s! Also in regards to the Trophy - can you lower it on Eibachs? If so is it worth it and how much can you lower it? Imo the Trophy needs ~20mm drop to look perfect!

Interesting you say that, so what would you say is the optimum wheel size for the 1*2's then?

Just out of curiosity - How much does it cost overall to upgrade the brakes to decent ones? Im guessing £200-£300?

Haha yeah very true indeed! Just wanted to see what people's opinions were. I guess the Clio is more than marginally quicker then, which is what i expected anyway... NOw the wait for a Trophy begins!!

Hi CSers, I don't post much on the forum but i'm constantly reading it! I'm a huge fan of Clios but I really can't decided between getting a Fiesta ST or a Clio Trophy for my next car. If i go for the Fiesta, I can get it a bit earlier as insurance is cheaper on the ST. Should i just wait an...

Looks very nice! The standard exhaust tip is much too small haha! Is that a 90mm tailpipe? A vid of the sound would be very much appreciated :D. Very nice looking car mate I must say. I'm tempted to buy a 1.8 16v one day to play around with, as I want to keep the Williams standard engine wise...

Yeah I thought about a Magnex i've heard they're very good for performance as well as sound. Is it worth getting the full system or can I/should I buy just the magnex backbox? Yeah I definitely want something that isn't too big as it looks stupid, and also something without a huge backbox! I'm...

Just wondering what people's thoughts are on Williams exhausts. I want a nice exhaust (possibly just backbox?) to sound a bit raspy. What's the best exhaust for performance? What's the best exhaust for sound? :p Any help/comments are much appreciated!
