LOL, why would i? What do i get out of it? I can blag discounts at all the places i want them already (bigger than Cliosport discount too). I dont go to meets as i live in the arse end of nowhere. So it comes down to paying £5 to use a forum. Which i wont do.;)
I get the impression that the figures they quote arnt actually tested atall, but borrowed from previous tests / magazines / industry figures / made up. I know they quoted my car as 7.7 0-60 with a top speed of 121 MPH, yet i know they never tested it. Those figures probably came from the...
Well evo give the following:
V6 MK2 0-60 5.5 sec
182 0-60 6.6 sec
Cup 0-60 6.5 sec
172 MK1 0-60 6.6 sec
Williams 0-60 7.7 sec, top speed 121 mph
That means the Williams is as slow to 60 compared to the 182 / 172 / cup as the 182 / 172 / cup are to the V6:p (according to EVO)
And...
Willimas prices dont go down because they get older, they go down because the cars become piles of sh*t when people dont look after them. IMO a mint Williams, is worth more than a cup / 172 and almost as much as a 182. Now thats a good residual value if you ask me.
You dont know, but that one...

For a real review of what the Williams can do youll want to be buying EVO (April Edition) out at the begining of March. In it there is a comprehensive review of a Williams pitted against the best super cars the world has to offer. This is no poxy hot hatch shoot out. This is playing with the big...
So the 182 is a marketing scam to compete with the Pug 180. The stripes are a marketing scam to compete with the striped coopers. Hmmmm, i smell somthing fishy here, and im not talking about the content of one of my Subaru threads.;)
I think the original rear shocks on the Williams are de carbon. Are other cheaper makes like gabrielle, monroe etc going to be pretty much the same or does the cheaper price underlie poorer quality? If i went to Renault for some, what make would they be, decarbon? How much more are decarbon over...
So the 182 has ESP? I didnt know that. Very interesting. A pansy driver aid to stop little johnny boy understeering. I cant remember do they have that on the Williams or not, hmmmm, let me think.......... Not sure the Williams needed it. Must be an inherant handling problem with the 182 then. I...
