Theres some in the members area, fastest is around low/flat fifteens going up to mid 15s I think.

200+ bhp/ton is the place to be.:devilish:

Thanks

Anyone, one in the members area doesnt work. Thanks [Edited by Martin. on 05 August 2004 at 10:21am]

Got a chance to see one close up and being driven quick and they are very good cars. Dont underestimate their handling either I would back a R32 to keep up with a 182 on any road really, loads of torque and interior is sweet as well. Plus there is decent build quality compared to french cars...

Another Williams in the club, nice work how do you think it compares to your old Cup?

Reno must sell tons of these cables, everyone I know with a valver/williams has replaced theres in the last year or so.

I like it... *snigger*

Williams with an auto box would be a crime! Dont think it would be much of a drivers car as an auto.

LOL

If your car revs to more than 7200 rpm (iirc) then youve got a chip.

Williams has a pretty high pitched, less than beefy horn.

No I dont have any brand loyalty, when I was looking for a new car it had to be a 2.0 hot hatch with good handling. Nearly bought a Gti-6 but ended up with a Williams, I could now afford something faster/more expensive but it wouldnt be the same driving experience as a Willy.

Heavier, less power and handle really well. Would back the clio in a straight line but round the corners would be down to the driver. IMO

Interesting......good to see Rich-D is keeping them grounded.

Welcome to the mad house.

25 quid.

Needed a faster car after having a vtr for 2 years so I decided I wanted a 2 litre hot hatch. Looked at a Gti-6 and the dealer wouldnt take part-ex, looked at a Williams 2 and they did. Sold!

As mentioned, where were the decent cars!? Sounds like a bit of a let down, I wouldnt get out of bed to drive any of those cars/mpvs LOL.

Good to see the Mk2 Gti boys are aiming high! I think being as quick as 172 is something they aspire to. lol

I think i used to have a clio.........oh yeah I remember now Williams i think. Best thing about my car, pressing the loud pedal (when its not broken)!

No 172/cups/182s round here only seen 2 or 3 apart from at meets obviously.

Nice, does it go round corners too?;)

I have noticed that some slightly tweaked 172s are doing 1/4 miles at around 14.7-14.9 secs @ 94-95 mph. When you compare this to cammed/modded 2.0 valvers and willys which do 14.4 ish @ 94-95 mph, how can the older style clio get terminal speeds so similar but run 0.3-0.6 secs quicker up the strip?

Tell us about your Corsa before you go, 325 bhp!:o

Im not far from the Lake District and wouldnt mind going for a drive up there. I dont know any of the decent roads though, would prefer smoothish roads rather than farm tracks. Anyone got any ideas?

I included running costs/consumables. Here a few examples Viper de-cat 8x Toyo Proxes Gaz Coilovers 4 new Williams wheels Hill power chip 4x Green stuff pads K-tec rear brake discs 2x Cobra Monacos + harness Supersprint manifold K-tec uprated clutch K-tec Strut brace...

16v are a pretty old car now and imo you cant tell anything about how much the car is worth from milage/reg. Condition is everything on these cars, a well looked after rust free car is worth more than a neglected car with 50k less on the clock.

I said better/faster car not fatter/slower car!;)

Was looking through all the reciepts Ive got for my car earlier and they add up to a shocking amount. At a rough guess Id say it was around 5k (including consumables) about the same as I bought the car for. So I was wondering how much other people have spent on their cars and at what point do...
