The first pics I have taken of my Williams 3. Only gave it a wash, needs some real TLC to make it shine!
You can see the girlfriend cleaning her 172 in a couple of them, lol

I reckon it looks loads better than the 172 (can't let the gf read this though!!) Not driven the Willaims much yet, but the 172 is awesome on the road.

Thanks for all the comments. :)
Hopefully it will look even better when I get through the list of things that need sorting / tidying / replacing / cleaning.

Looks like I will have to subscribe to read the 172 vs williams review (or just do it myself, lol)

the evo 172 vs willy test makes the 172 look poo.

BUT

If you read the evo long termer silver ph2 172 over the following months it gives a far better picture of the clio - one of their main crisisms was the fact it wasn't all that quick - but they timed it again when it had some miles on it and it was getting much quicker.

I think Williams3's are the best colour.

Theres been a few times when evo have given are car 3-4 stars, then raved about them as long termers - imo they should revisit cars like that and at the end of the term review their scores...

Check out who's defending willy colours! :wink: :wink: :wink:

The pictures are very flattering, hopefully it will look that good close up after some attention over the easter break. The plates are close, looking through the history mine originally came from Norwich (first service at Fairview Norwich). I have yet to see a Williams 3 next to one of the other 2 yet, so I love the colour but need to compare!! (of course 432 will be better when I do :) )

Renault must have just wanted to cause some arguments over which is better by making the same car a slightly different colour, so far they have managed about 15 years of arguing over a shade of blue!!! It was probably a distraction to stop people talking about them breaking down or rusting lol

Hi there,

Just got myself a williams and need some new fogs.....

Quite like the old school look of these yellow one's anywhere know where they can be found, are they just R5 fog lights?

Cheers

Not sure TBH as mine came on the car. I do however have a reciept for new fog lights (which may or may not be these as it is from before I had the car) and it is from Renault. Can dig out the part numbers from it if it helps??
