looks tidy, think I saw this for sale on pistonheads or autotrader perhaps?
none standard suspension is it? looks slightly lower to me, or perhaps i'm imagining it?
I wouldn't have a clue what to do, any ideas on what the options are? essentially I guess if its okay you have to take it back, insurance may cover new keycard if needed??
unfortunately you may be stuck with it however as it'll be down as stolen recovered now won't it??
every cloud has a...
cheers chap, its something I am thinking about doing on the mk1 to get a proper widetrack, its still on old school valver setup with the awful drop link ARB etc, tbh its never been an issue really, car handles great, but I think I fancy tinkering some more is all and perhaps a slightly comfier...
what is the concise list for the swap chip, am I right in thinking its
- hubs
- wishbones/ball joints
- driveshafts
- full brakes so discs, carriers,calipers and pads (and flexis)
- front struts (can use Williams but need to machine hubs down to fit and shim the bolt holes to fit smaller...
wounding mate, hope you can get it sorted, as people have mentioned its all down to how economically repairable the quarter is, rest of the bits should be easy enough to source/paint if needed but if that doorpin has pulled the inside of the door shut out of shape too, could mount up in price...
the phase 2 valver seats are however peerless for comfort, theres nothing else I've ever sat in that's come close, including the obvious Jag etc route, they are sublime for me! sniff, miss them soooooo much! :(
whats up with your pedal chap?
and again I agree, although my Williams' made great daily's I still don't think i'd have one again now, but primarily that was as they were better looked after/maintained than the valvers simply due to clientele/owners.
I think the ITB project just ground Ronee down over the years mate, a lot of time/money/love/effort she put into that car and I don't think she ever got the joy out of it she expected perhaps, enough to put you off really. think her and Gaz still have a naples mk 1 as a runabout however, so she...
ai, i'm not a mega poster and never have been, so never really a valuable asset to any forum I visit! as such I just sort of float about looking for useful information in whatever area I can find it, currently most of what I need/use is on here or RTOC, it used to be WC and C16v. round and round...
agreed, C16V was a great place a few years back and I have made a lot of friends through it, but basically I was a source of info on there, not collecting it. and its been going through a rough patch recently after the mess that the old owner left the admin team in and still has essentially, so...
the hi power silver is too much imo, a nice subtle silver will look brilliant on the standard naples :)
Luke......I have a bare set of Williams wheels with caps waiting to go Subaru grey for the new motor........if they don't look right on a 182 I will be selling them. but this will be in a...
see if you can see this link chap, standard cap colour I'm fairly sure

nothing of nothing now though chap if your going to rock the Williams wheels :)
i'd normally rock grey or similar for wheel colour choice, but with the car being so clean and o/e I reckon standard silver would set it all off lovely with the subtle o/e+ look. looking forward to seeing it on...
don't use blummin waxoyl if you plan to work on the car yourself in the future, I spend my life covered in the stuff now as its all over the underside of the car! lol!
they were very slightly darker I think, although perhaps that's placebo and the fact you never see them un-refurbished anymore, but they weren't as dark as the ones on drivers side of yours, passenger side is more like it from the pics, they look about right.
however, looking at it it seems...
