Hi got round to posting at last after lurking for a while!

We bought a Williams (0398) in May and since then it has been fun fun fun! 4th owners and about 77k on clock. I have always wanted a Willy (car of course!) Ed was hankering after a Capri didn't take much to persuade him otherwise though!

Be gentle with us love cars but we ain't mechanics, so do get a tad lost with the technical stuff so hoping you lot can help out when get a bit stuck.

Haven't got photos uploaded at the mo but did send Northy one. Will try and sort some out.

Anyone around York? Have seen a Willy 2 or 3 and 2 Valvers.

Thanks Northy.

Thanks Dave.

Not had it long when a pheasant decided to throw itself at the bonnet and then some mystery UFO bounced on the roof on the motorway - no where near any other vehicles or bridges etc!!?? Something seems determined to cause as much harm to it as poss!

Anyway had the door, pheasant and UFO dents removed - bonnet could still be better!

Thanks for the welcome! It does seem like a friendly place.

Zollo - honestly Ed doesn't need the encouragement, last nights conversation was about getting a house with a big enough garage for the potential car collection! Mind you I don't need encouraging either totally obsessed with cars but mainly Clio's and want one of each!

Fusionrs whereabouts in York are you? Not seen a white 17poo.

I live in Strensall at the moment but have to sell the house and the 172 for a house upgrade :(

It was either the 172 or the valver hybrid that had to go so its bye bye 172!!
