The Clio Williams Thread...

[Wobba]

Looks SLOW tbh!

Top thread chaps....Still love the Valvers and Williams! Shame you struggle to find top notch examples these days!

Thanks. There are some good ones about and a few in collectors garages tucked away

As projects go, they are not that hard to bring up to scratch if you find a good shell, but bodywork is usually a thorn in the side you must pay out for. Some have had shoddy repairs to the body and end up rusting after a year as well. I'll be sorting mine later in the year through a very good bodyshop thats done a few Willies in the past and is used to more expensive exotica.

I've pretty much replaced every mechanical component including the engine so far, including the entire suspension system and most of the coolant system. Not had to touch the wiring amazingly apart from a few leads and a faulty rad fan due to the fragile wires failing, which was easy.

Everytime i look in here it gets me thinking, ITB's for the 182, or get a Williams 1 and run them both... Decisions decisions

If you look hard enough and buy a good one it wont mate! Buy a dog and i suspect you'll be correct!

I had a 16v which i turned into 2.0 16v and both engines over a two year span (from 2004 to 2006) were no worse for reliablity than the 182 which was as good as gold too!

If you get a gooden, keep it a gooden by looking after it and dont plan on using it daily you'll be fine.

If you have a 182 and Williams it doesn't matter if it does break as you have another car to get around in.

Mine was fine for reliability but mot's were sometimes (often) hard work.

[Brett]

Why not sell the 182 and get a car thats cheaper to run, then get a mint Williams 1. That way you could spend more on the Williams making it mint.

[JayR]

^Why would he want to do that!? Thats just silly! lol
