Very nice Trophy indeed! Really makes me want one! What are the options suspension wise for Trophys? Are Eibach Sportlines a good choice? Also heard of mark fish springs, they seem to be popular? Any details on how much mm drop eibach/cooksport/mark fish are?
Anyone got any pictures of a LY / UR 197 with turini's? Any colour 197 for that matter! Can't seem to find that many good pictures of ones with turinis on google/197.net! Thanks
In response to chip trailering wouldnt be a problem. Would this kind of thing be good? http://williamsclio.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?42995-Track-****-Project-%C2%A3650 Head gasket is gone, that could lead to other engine problems etc no?
Dont have a set budget as such, but unsure if to spend £800-£1000 on a high miler 106/172/mk1 16v, or invest a bit more and buy say a 172 cup. The appeal of the 106/mk1 16v is the tuneability/rawness. Hopefully looking to spend anything upto £500 for a trailer. I think the 172 cup would perform...
Im put off the cup by the lack of throttle cable, althought cups are slightly lighter than 172s (by 14kgs iirc?) which is obviously an advantage, and cups look so much better than ph1s!
I just think a clio 16v 1.8/ph1/106 would be a bit more raw than a ph2 cup?
I'm seriously considering buying a clio as a track car. Proper jobby stripped out trailered to track days etc. Im really unsure what would be the best base to start with. A ph1 172, Ph2 172 Cup, mk1 1.8 16v?
Or do I go completely different route and look for a 106 gti / saxo vts to use as a...
Nice FRP there, love the blue they come in! (Similar-ish to the Mk1 FRS blue?)
Just wanted to ask, apologies if you've already said, but why the change from a Trophy to the FRP? I really love the Trophy, and I can't decide between an UR 197 or a Trophy for my next car. I gather the trophy is...
This looks very nice indeed! Are those 17s?
Edit: Actually now realised they are 16s.. looked pretty big on that photo though! Nice wheels which suit the car either way!
Appreciate the comments, thanks. r&skxa I see what your saying, but i still think market value is £5000.00, I bought it last Jan and as you know these cars don't go down in value.. So basically the best thing I can do is just keep asking for more and prove its worth more with pictures etc?
Yeah I see what you're saying - but market value of my Williams 3 really was £5000.00. So if they don't move enough on price what can I do? Can I take them to court?
Hi all, I used to own an immaculate Clio Williams 3. Unfortunately I wrote it off last week. At the moment I'm going through the claim procedure with Admiral and they phoned up today offering me a settlement no where near what I was expecting. I paid £5000 for the car last January, and it really...
Looks very nice indeed! Are those the 197 "cup" wheels (which are also speedline, right?) in gloss black? Looks sweet either way! What exhaust / trims you got?
Very nice cars! Can you show any more pics of the 197, maybe some side on pics if you can? Really wants a red 197 for my next car, and cant decide on gloss black wheels or 18" turinis..
Thanks!
Thanks - I don't know if you will know but it says "Impress with some carbon fibre on your car" but then goes on to say it comes in a gloss black gelcoat? Dotn want a carbon fibre effect diffuser lol!
Looks like a good option for 200 diffuser on 197, Genuine ones are silly money. Where would you buy the exhaust trims though? Thinking of this + a BTM exhaust but want the 200 rear look (chrome tips visible).
Seen this: http://www.cazanracing.com/product.php?id=CAZ00091 Reckon it would be a good product to fit to a 197? Looks pretty OEM. Any thoughts/anyone bought one off these people before?
Nice footage! Few nice cars out there - Mk2 Golf GTI - 2x 205 GTIs (at least I think that second one with the rear spoiler was a 205?) Gotta get my Williams to some track days soon!
Sometimes feel like poeple think im a chav in my Williams with Magnex exhaust. To most it looks like a 20 year old clio with a big exhaust, gold wheels and a bonnet bulge. Probaly think its a 1.2 with a bodykit - but those who think that have no idea what it is, and so can't appreciate it. In my...
