Mines knackered too...along with the electric mirrors, washer jets and knackered sidelight bulb.:cry:

Whos gone fishing?

Only got them on the back at the moment so I cant really say....back end seems stable tho, will definatly be getting them on the front too when my Proxes bite the dust.

Welcome fella, always good to have more williams owners on board!:D

Yup, Northy kindly got my a couple of 195/50/15s for £43 each fitted...Bargain!

sh*t, bad news pal:cry:.....keep us updated on how badly its pranged. At least no-one was hurt and with your knowhow and connections Im sure getting it back in full working order wont be too heavy on the wallet.

Well, erm it has to be the Escort Cossie...every day of the week!

LOL, what a gimp...

Whos got it then?

I cant believe Adi let that beast leave the club..does anyone know whos got it now and how its going?

You sure its not a valver lookalike??;)

Welcome to Cliosport, must be quality having the only Williams in an entire country!:D

I found that the itg filter in the stnd airbox is actually louder than the viper I used to have...

I had 205/40s once on a old car and I wouldnt have them again, 45s all the way less crashy on bumpy roads and more progressive on the limit IMO.

^Agreed itd piss my right off for a while but youd get used to it after a while and prob wouldnt even notice.....until you try to overtake that van doing 50 mph on twisty(ish) road!;)

You sound like a pro Ricky....lol. SimonGtt that sounds like a real sh*te situation, hope you get it sorted.

Id agree that most of the time a 172 will be faster than a Williams....however there are exceptions to that rule, some F7r engines make a lot more than the quoted 150 bhp.

Yeah I think it is Brun..around Jct 23 on the M6?

Feckin hell me eyes hurt after reading that....and I thought I bought a dog, cheers for making me feel better LOL. Seriously though sounds like the dealer is a complete tw*t and the car...well thats what qualifies as well maintained if its been owned by a women!!:devilish:

The rare Megane Williams running against me at York...it was sh*te..16.5! IIRC http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1097750431__Dscf0106.jpg

I would expect the 172s power to give it a definate edge over 100 but they vary so much- Ive heard of 172s running between 14.6 and 15.7 up the 1/4 all standard(ish)...

Fastest mk1 172 I know of is Kevs old one which did a mailto:14.6@94mph">14.6@94mph 1/4 mile with no rear seats and no spare.

Er, yeah it was, rev limit determines the top speed on most williams/2.0 valvers and mines been raised to 7.1k so you can get some pretty impressive speeds......

Ok cheers, let is know.....

Id go for it pal, I always felt the williams needed a bit more power too....

I think a standard looking 172/valver with more than 200 bhp would be great fun.....wouldnt pay more than 2.5k personally though.

Id say the condition/servicing/mileage can have a big affect (15 bhp or more) on the F7R engine...if you get a good one (with breathing mods) I imagine it would be as quick if not quicker than a 182...

2live I didnt go today, I was feeling rough as fvck when my alarm went off at 6:45 (supposed to be there for 8:30) plus the fact when he tweaked the fuelling last time he claimed 140atw and it only turned 129atw at the r/r day = Me going back to sleep till dinnertime! Reckon the fella who did...

Youll have to ask Northy pal, but Im pretty sure you will need a Costco card to get them fitted...

Fifthded:D
