0001 on CS stand... hilarious

[J o n]

only just noticed that thread on CS and the reaction by certain people... it's a car FFS, would it be a crime if people sat in it and god forbid someone drove it? or course not, that's what the seats, steering wheel and engine are for :roll:

[Jamie.]

i actually agree with you. sheesh that was harder than i thought to write that.

lol.


yer its only a renault clio

[Lunner]

Its pathetic, plus it shoudl be on our stand.

I'm gonna go and sit in it and bounce up and down :lol:

[J o n]

it's great if you like to collect cars to put in shrink wrap... but not a suped up hatch, which at the end of the day is all it is, and the value will NEVER be anything substantial, otherwise it would be worth at LEAST it's original list price by now imo. I understand it, but it just seems dumb to me... buy a car that's expensive, yet worthless in the scheme of things... not only that but it's effectively an ornament as the person probably has no intention of using it... pointless car regardless of miles if its never to be driven... imo it's worth more to a driver if it was in as good condition as that 'should' be, but with a nice freshly rebuilt engine ready to run in and use... not seize on it's first spirited drive in 10 years and go bang lol

it would be funny if the owner turned up and tracked it... the reaction alone would be worth a 1000 times the entrance fee :lol:

Renault UK own it.

[Tommo]

I don't think it's worth the list price at the moment, but in 10 or 15 years time when most Williams are extinct it will be worth a fortune if it's kept in the concours condition it's in.

The owner of the bodyshop that just sorted my williams has got a willy 2 with 30k on it. It lives in a garage and is never driven. A real shame if you ask me. Driving them is what its all about.

[Laine_16v]

Indeed i say drive em, drive em hard 8)

but i do think the Williams 0001 is a bit special and should be in a museum.

I dare somebody to stick a williamsclio.co.uk sticker on the back window when nobody is looking

****, I'll do it when everyone IS looking :lol:

Bet I can get some tart to sit on the bonnet for a picture too :lol:

[Day]

You wanna swap the good bits over ;)

[Smokey McPot]

I cant really see the point in having it on the Cliosport Stand at FCS....Williams Clio perhaps or Retro Renault.

Should be at somewhere decent though, Goodwood for example.

[Swervin_Mervin]

Prolly will be at Goodwood non? It's Renault special this year.

[Smokey McPot]

Goodwood is?

[Mattie]

i think its a shame its on the CS stand....CS is all about 172s , 182s and lexus lights....

it should be on the WC stand!

i recon you should contact the owner northy and get him 2 change his mind :P

[northy]

lol, i couldnt be dealing with the car on our stand mate - i couldnt afford the repair bills if anything happened.

[2 live]

itl look better on the cs stand imo....will stand out more amongst all yhe mk2s more than it woill amongst the valvers/williams'

[northy]

i think its in the best place - getting shown off to the public.

It would of been nice if renault had a dedicated show stand at FCS with all the 0001's ones on. V6, Trophy etc

[white16valver]

hopefully they'll do that next year - I know FCS have managed to blag the 197 for the show!
