Being a dumbasse, i originally posted this is the wrong forum! Just wondering how much would u exepct to pay for a decent re-pray for a williams. Its just ive had the bonnet re-done, and the rear arches its just, i was thinking about getting the boot lid done which is getting a bit rusty, and...
all standard cars had a race to clear up all "whos faster" arguments? I know it would be a huge task to find old standard cars but wouldnt it be great? There are so many topics that questions which car is faster out of an option of 2 cars. If i remember Jezza Clarkson did a show with a 205 GTI...
No, and im no mechanic myself, but after hearing most peoples views it probably wasnt the r/r, maybe just the operators negligence!?! I just dont have a clue TBH!! Just glad they paid their part!! Was hoping on the full costs from them, put came to a point where couldnt be arsed to go down the...
Dont know if many people remeber this topic, but forgot to say my replacement engine was finally fitted!! The rolling road company were being very stuborn at first but eventually we settled the costs 50/50!! Which was cool! The head of the last engine seems in perfect condition so may sell that...
Smokey, thanks for posting the pics , much appreciated!!:D
So you think a Viper is they way forward? May have to consider one when i get my car back, and get some money together. Im sure their around £200-£250, and at the mo i need all the money i can get!
It was my old one,I sold in back in june/july time. I didnt know about this forum at the time so i dont think it would have been anyone on here that bought it.
Im relatively new to the forum and just thought id post some pics of my car. I bought it with the alternator gone, huge dent in the bonnet, bad arches, and the wheels needing a refurb. Ive fixed all of this now. Was guna wait til i got the williams stickers (Doesnt have them due to re-spray i...
Im sure they they also made a 2.0 16v engine for the Scenic. Would this also be the same? I know it will be best if i get a NEW megane engine etc, but the cost behind it will be huge. Im hoping maybe to find a damaged Megane 2.0, but that still has the engine in top nik (And if im very very...
Ive definetly resigned my Everself to the fact that the bang came from my car, and it wasnt the r/r. Im now waiting on the independant mechanic to see whats going to happen. Ive phoned up loads of other places and they also stated it prob wouldnt be the R/R. Every single comp has said they...
Ive had a williams and a 16v. 0-60 and there didnt seem any difference between them between 0-60. If anything the 16v may have felt slighty quicker!(Obviously just an illusion though) Anyway past 60, my williams speed didnt seem to decrease, or slow, it just kept going and going. Where as the...
Cheers for all the opinions on this guys. So if worst comes to worst, how much would a new engine be? Would it even be worth it? Or if its just the Con-rod(And for some miraculous reason it hasnt damaged anything else), how much would that be? Just to update all, Autotechnics have suggested that...
Im actually located im Bmth. Had it about 2 months now and alreaday spent quite a bit on it. Sorting out the bonnet and the rusty arches, new alternator, and the stupidly expensive wheel re-furb!!. No real distinguishing features really, though it DOESNT have the williams stickers(Due to...
Yes it was tied back. Quite funny as before hand id did actualy say, what would happen if they stoped etc. They said that it wouldnt move any way, it would just stall(cant remeber their explanation on this but thats what they defo said)
I didnt sign anything atall!! And I didn’t see any signs stating would be my responsibility! The only reason I wanted the R/R was because the previous owner stated should have BHP of 172, and I didn’t want to boast about this until it was proven, cos currently I only have an old graph showing...
its a williams 1. The previous owner stated he had a stage 2 engine Re-map and superchip. So this may account to the reason that the throttle doesnt cut-out at 7K RPM, just keeps goin!
Worst month of my life ever!! Said the other week how I got charged £380 for wheel re-furb. Anyway off to Gillingham today to have my car rolling roaded. Firstly I curbed my wheel in a narrow lane, cos of an on coming taxi, then I was 15 mins late.
Got there (Autotechnics, Gillingham)...

I really need to figure out how i put photos on properly. Anyway heres a pic of one of the wheels. Not as bad...
To be honest im not really that fussed, its just the guy at Longmans really tried putting me of saying id be better ofF going somewhere where they can do ATF. Quite silly really putting me off. But no, i think i will just stick to having an ATWs figure and go to Longmans. The main reason i want...
