Spotted yesterday afternoon in Morrisons car park, not sure if it was a genuine Williams as wasn't numbered stickers, (ie, was just Williams) but was a ph2

I've just submitted a claim due to vandal damage to my car. Can i request that the money is paid directly to me, rather than to a repairer? Im just thinking about this as wondering if I might be best to put the money towards a new car and sell mine as is without getting it repaired. I've not...

Was behind a Trophy last night coming out of my village, reg AO55 *** Anyones from on here?

Spotted today about 12:30 going down St. Stephens, K2 RL * plate First time i've ever seen an Acid one on the actual road :)

Im now due to get a new contract. I've narrowed it down to either the Nokia 6280 (free) or the N80 or N91 (both £150). What would people recommend? I only really use the phone for calls and texting obviously, but like to have a reasonable camera, and a few extra toys always come in handy...

Spotted last nite, looked very nice...... not sure what was wrong with it though..... weaving side to side, must've been to warm those tyres up for that bendy fast road we were on.... oh no, we were on a dead straight 2-mile long sea-front with a 30mph limit :rolleyes:

Was on my way out last night, went over some train lines in my village and as I accelerated away it felt like I was in a too higher gear for my speed, but checked and I wasn't. Anyhow, engine suddenly became very noisy (sounded like a tractor running rough!). There's a small amount of smoke...

I've got the common 4k exhaust rattle on my 172. Its been there ever since i've had the car, but i'd really like to sort it out as it gets on my nerves at times, especially on motorways when its almost constant. So, what part of the exhaust is it that usually causes this? I've had a couple of...

I've got an oil leak from the gearbox on my 172. It looks like its coming from the rubber joint/seal where the gear selector goes into the gearbox. Is this likely to be an expensive thing to get replaced? Im guessing the rubber will only be a few quid, but couldn't figure out how much labour...

Just checking up some insurance groups on the official site for it all, and spotted a Clio Renaultsport 197! As the model year is starting 2006, im guessing thats going to be the new RS...... could see some cheaper insurance premiums hopefully! RENAULTCLIO RENAULTSPORT 172...

Im looking to go and buy another Williams 2 tomorrow, which will mean getting either that, or my mk1 172 insured on dayinsure for my girlf to drive one home But, what are the official Association of British Insurers' Car Group ratings for both? I had a feeling the 172 is a 16, and Williams a...

Whats the idea of these? Do we have any MOT testers on here who know how the test differs? I guess they're to cut down on fraud and to make it easier to check up on cars via a central database, but how will it stop a dodgy tester passing a car that shouldn't pass!?

I've had my Road Angel Compact for approx 2 weeks now and has been working fine. However, when i plugged the RA Compact into my car tonight, it displayed the blue screen for around a second, then the screen flashed red 4 or 5 times in rapid succesion. The screen then went blank although the 3...

Anyone know how much roughly a new mk2 172 wheel is??

When i bought my 172 a couple of months ago the passanger seat wouldn't tilt forwards to allow people into the back. The handle for it was missing which I was told had just snapped off. This was fine, as the drivers side still worked...... until last night. There was just a crack, and then the...

Just after some quick advice, my girlf's 206cc has gone into garage today as it keeps blowing a fuse which covers all instrument dials, stereo, aircon, interior dash lights and hazard light switch. The garage say its blowing because of the stereo, and everything else is fine. I expected this...

Was driving home last night in the snow, and the abs cut in a couple of times. Sounds very strange though, hard to explain but kinda like a musical string being plucked, but much more like metal (if that makes any sense). Anyway, just before i get home, the abs and SERV lights come on and...

I've only had my 172 for a couple of months, but its not what i want from a car, so after xmas i'm going to be putting it up for sale and looking to buy another Williams. Thing is im not really sure what the 172 is worth as there's not much about to compare it to mileage wise. Its a 2000 X...

Whats the paint code for the titanium 182's? Is it 647 the same as the early titanium 172's?

Did all 172's come with the plastic engine cover? I've not got one on my 2000 X reg 172 but didn't know if that was something that was only added on the later cars, although i expect it probably should have it. How much are they to buy? I know my local breakers will have some, but just want...

What are the offsets on the mk1 and mk2 172? I've bought some standard 16" alloys from a mk2 172 which i planned to fit onto my mk1 172, do i need spacers or anything? I'd assumed they were the same, but have been told they may not be. Cheers

I've got a badly worn steering wheel on my mk1 172 (most of you know what they're like after 30k, just imagine how mine looks after 128k miles!). Anyway, as they're impossible to get hold of practically, I was wondering if it was possible to fit a steering wheel from a newer mk2 Clio, either...

Does anyone know what would be involved in fitting the genuine standard 182 complete back boxes onto a mk1 172? Im guessing it shouldn't be too bad, but not sure if the pipes are the same diameter? Thanks
