This is my other Williams ,which I picked up a few years ago.
Excuse the state of it, it is very dusty from being in storage.
It doesn't need as much work as Duf, it only needs a new set of springs and shocks, as the current ones are so knackered, it's slammed on the deck, as it were.
I...
Had this part ex'd in today.
Is a 2001 S3 with exhaust, decat and air filter combo with a remap.
Has a horrid black and yellow interior (including door cards) so i assume it's factory done as it still has the Factory Recaro's in.
Goes very well, needs a bit of tidying but once it's been...
I really have to stop buying Clio's :o
So, even though I have owned pretty much all sporty Clio's, from Mk1 RSi's, 1.8 16v's (2 of them), 16v Hybrids, 172's (3 of them) 182 - I have not owned a Williams.
So when I remembed Dan still had DUF, I offered to buy it, and the rest is history...
2 nice convertables for the summer, if you would like to know any info please ring or drop me a PM :) http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201210454715566/sort/priceasc/usedcars/price-to/5000/radius/1/postcode/sn160ga/quicksearch/true/page/2?logcode=p...
Well in a slight turn-around, the VR6 has been swapped for this beasty!
I will miss the Golf, and it is a shame I didn't finish it, but I do prefere how French cars drive, plus this has a much better specification, so the deal was done (Straight swap) (On a plus side, the swap was with a mate...
We got 3 Up's in this week, each of the 3 specs.
Some crappy pics:
Good points:
Very easy to park
Cheap
satnav as standard on the top of the range (which shows MFA info like fuel consumption etc)
easy to drive and quite comfortable and quiet for a small car
Bad...
We had one in which needed a few things doing, mainly the sump was leaking and the tandem pump was too.
To sort these out, due to the setup, the engine needs to be removed.
It's a fairly big job, it is pretty much crammed in, and it comes down complete with subframe, air suspension...
For anyone who might be interested, modifications are a fully stripped interior, some make of high lift cams, 6 branch manifold, decat, and exhaust.
Map is not the best at the mo, it's over fuelling low to mid range. Current bhp is 196bhp, and iirc 190 lb ft of torque.
Firstly my MK5 Golf, it wants for nothing and drives mint! It's had all the important bits done, it's recently had a service, MOt, tyres, cambelt - it is a fantastic car and I have been using it as my personal car, but it needs to be sold now, so price is down from £5750 to £5350...

Sorry to ask as i know its been asked a hundred times already (I did search but couldnt find what i wanted)
Basically, I have an anchent TT one ed3, and its great. It does what i need and has been very reliable.
Thing is though, its starting to show its age, even with maps updated, gps quick...

E34 5 series.
4.0 V8 out of a 540
Manual box conversion
Ignore the wiring - it is all being stripped out and we are making a custome loom for it.
Cage goes through bulkhead to strut tops too
Total overkill (he bought it with the...
Couldn't pass this one up! Was offered it by a friend, VERY cheap so had to say yes.
Needs some tidying, but should be good fun to mess about with
Collected today, basic spec is:
1997 2.8 Golf VR6
122k
Uprated cams (Unkown make atm)
Tubular manifold
Scorpion exhaust
Decat
Induction kit...
Well for now at least lol
has gone from this:
To this:
the back now has the helper blocks taken out, and the springs near down as much as they can go, and the fronts are down about...
Going to have a play around with my KW's this weekend/next week, but the rear is set high at the moment - very high, due to the larger wheels that were previously on it. Now im on 15's, can I get peoples suggestions on what ride height would be good? Combined road and track use. I know there...
I have been using this as my run around for the past few months, I was going to retail it right away, but I took it on a weekend away to Cornwall and have enjoyed driving it so much iv held onto it for a bit, but time to move it on now.
It is in mint condition, the best MK4 iv sold, and drives...
After a few opinion, my new one has Schrick cams (280/288) and currently a 180 exhaust manifold with a Yozza sport cat.
Opinion please, what would be better, keeping the 182 manifold or going back to a 172 one?
I know all about the 182 suppoed to be better, but with regards to the cams id like...
Change of project car!
Saw this up for sale on here, and it had on it most of the bits I wanted to do to my old project, and one thing iv learnt over the years is it makes mcuh more sense to upgrade if you can - it will save so much money!
So here is my new one, my Exclusive.
Spec so far is...
Impressive title right? Lol.
Right, im back.
The Elise is being sold, I don't want it to but Im wanting to expand my business, and we are now looking to move house so the money from selling the Elise is needed for that.
I wanted a cheap toy to tide me over until another Elise is within...
