i paid 1k for my 46k engine/box/ecu, one went on ebay at 50k for 1.2k, i think they can happily go for near enough 1k! driveshafts/wishbones/ARB etc could go for £300, interior/wheels etc are worth a few quid as well i reckon. Wouldnt be far off!
Williams are dipping into the high £2k price bracket for decent examples, with Engine/Box/ECU worth over 1k, williams track worth £400, interior, wheels etc....is the car worth more in pieces?
conversion cost around 1.5k ALL in, clutch etc etc.
Just had a little do with The Jesus and the pace setter 2Live, Jons car is ridiculous, it will be seeing 13s this year, but compared to The Jesus williams, both standard engines, the 2l clio still seems to have a slight edge, the unexplained...
TBH mate, the steering is REALLY heavy. i mean to a stage where im kind of regretting it. THe car seems to idle a little lower now too, around 850ish, but power seems to be real good,cant tell if its because of lack of PAS or just that the car has had a few hard miles since it got dropped in...
Had a nice few little blasts with my mates cars yesterday. firstly my mates 2.5 Z4, from 30+ there was nothing in it until over legal speedds, only gear changes were giving me teh minor advantage, and secondly my mates chipped TTR, again peanuts in it until silly speeds, although i didnt manage...
its on. Reckon my lot will be putiing in a good show, Red_willys monster is ridiculous, and Khan, if you get that polo you better save for some serious tyre wear, 180bhp through the front whheels aint shy.......
CAN NOT WAIT!
1st one went cos i needed to buy a house
2nd one (Craigs yellow one) went cos i didnt have the patience to finish it and the house again......really regret that now!
3rd one went cos i couldnt afford to keep both the S3 and that, also regret selling that!
Cup does appeal but a little more...
Hopefully teh S3 is gone 2moro, now to my favourite part! picking a replacement. Criteria is as follows, must be a drivers car, need something that will get me working hard and still have plenty left when i run out. Insurance is also an issue, less then grp 15.
At the moment im down to a few...
Now i just think your winding me up! lol, my first post said each to their own. i can see the attaction in all cars, its just what sort of enjoyment the driver wishes to extract from it, be it heated leathers, mind boggling straight line speed, or cornering ability.
I also like to get laid...
This has turned intoo a fight thread! Willy Williams, my story was hypothetical. Dont mistake everyone on here as 17yr olds who have just got their license and think their lowered 1.2s are the fastest things on earth. My point was made in an attempt to show why i, like many others, choose the...
well it depends what you would calss as ridiculous, 205bhp/ton on a grp 12 car is RIDICULOUS imo, considering the TypeR and 172/182 are much slower and around grp 17-18
im looking to earn 16k on my placement, as an UNDER-grad, so near 20k after graduation. BTW, Craig, dont insure your car, sell it me. save lots of money!
This is what im unsure of, i didnt have a good look, think it had phase one lights and tailgate strip , but not sure about side strips. Defo a a williams, had williams front track though, and a plaque. Maybe it was just a late registered one?
right guys, a few days ago i saw an........M reg Williams.......1!
It was defo a 1 cos it had the plaque! and def an M-reg? i thought all Ms were 2?also, when did th e182 come out? i saw an 04 plate 182 today, but seen a 54 plate 172....how is that possible?
