Orite there everyone, just made myself a paid member today! I will be looking to buy a Williams later this year. This looks a good place for help and research, about 9 year ago I had two 16v clio's (wish i knew about forums back then!) but always wanted a Williams deep down.It will be used as a second car with the occasional trip to work! 8)Peter
areet! I'm from South Shields so if you need to know anything just let me know. Where abouts are you?

Thanks for the welcome!

Hi icenutter! Pleased to see there are a couple of locals!
Haha it certainly is me from .org (coincidentally just come back from the National Meet at Anglesey this weekend!) but I no longer have a VX, got a Z4 Coupe now.
Had my W3 since October and I've spent more than 3 times the price I paid for the car on 'doing it up'. Loving every minute though, even got a 7 page project thread on Pistonheads.
There are another 2 Willys in South Shields alone so do be careful when frantically waving at others as it might be one of the other two (which my mate recently found out!)
But anyway, anything you need to know just give me a message and I'll be happy to try and help. Failing that there are some members on here with a worrying amount of encyclopedic knowledge on the Willy. Some of it is truly mind-boggling!
