yes and no its a P-reg!

Daz · Mar 24, 2004

001 hasnt been written off.. most people said Frank Williams wrote it off, but search the forum - you can see one!

So, either a) 001 is a Right Hand Drive, written off.. so they got a LHD and changed the plaque.. or b) everyone was wrong, hehe.

Ben H · Mar 24, 2004

Williams 0002 was on trade plates from 1993 to 1996 AFAIK.

Williams 0001 is at the Williams F1 factory and its a LHD:

The Williams that was smashed up was an un-numbered pre-production car.

But the most collectable car has to be Williams 0123!!!

FATBOY · Mar 24, 2004

king.stromba · Mar 24, 2004

steve a · Mar 25, 2004

OMG get those wheels off face balanced ASAP!!!

Zmaster2k · Mar 25, 2004

lol!

BenR · Mar 25, 2004

They could do with tidying up a bit!

The compound that is.

One question, what makes 002 or whatever, different to 0123 or 0254?

I can understand number 1 being a bit holy grail-ish, but simply any willy after that one is the same, and as the nature of construction, wouldnt they become better at building as time progresses, hence the last one made is the best?

i want a clean car!!!!! lol

northy · Mar 25, 2004

While your there Rob...........Find out why its running on Pirelli Boots and there size fellor.

That accelerator pedal is different to mine too.

Take a camcorder.

Chris n nic · Mar 25, 2004

king.stromba · Mar 25, 2004

I already know about the Pirellis. I wrote a letter ages ago. Got a reply from a high up bod explaining it to me (Sir Franks son). Didnt bother posting on here as too many ppl f**ked my off about the tyres. You may find the info on another site if you do a google search.

And BenR, maybe your right about 0002 not being special. But it is to me, and it seems to be to EVO and Williams Grand Prix Engineering, so f**k everyone else.

dannyt · Mar 25, 2004

is there a web site for the williams factory?

Nope, i think the car was written off by a reporter and was just a 16v with all the willy bits bolted on and off course the engine.

Love hearing about this stuff though...
