after all my car episodes i decided that a renault 5 or rs turbo werent for me and was gonna purchase another 16v but... insurance is good now :D

so i bought a williams 2 on tuesday evening. from rossco (in for sale section for a pic). cant leave it alone. i thought it wudnt much better than a 16v... how wrong was i. cant believe it soo much more torque and power. struggling to keep the wheels from spinning when i floor it.

petrol seems really good aswell doing 50 miles a day at the mo at bout 60 mph and it seems better than my 1.4rt

on the way home kept up with a bmw m5 60-130 (on private road)

kept up with a civic type-r on some bends (again private road)

had a two mile race against my m8s 172 cup and he got in front but i gradually passed him and got a few car lengths infront.

ive had 149mph out of her and my g-tech recorded a 7.07 0-60 on wet grounds.

its got a scorpion full system which is ok but well loud!!

interiors immaculate, wheels are good apart from too much of one rim has been polished when refurbed.

other than that its standard and stayin that way looking anyway.

plans are: arches sortin and wheels refurbed after winter
cams pulleys chip etc

as for the next couple of months im jus gna enjoy it. am sooo happy with it. best car i have ever driven and only 73k

pics will follow 2mro after a service and a clean!

149? :shock:

I did a private road test the other night on the way home from Preston speedo bounced off the standard limiter on 144mph, gps verified it as an actual 136 so knock a few mph off that top speed fella!

i was racing a cooper-s and clio 172 cup and they where both reading 150.

apparently at them speeds the speedos about 15% out
