Just wanted to say hello as i have just registard :wink: on the look out for a nice Williams at the moment just for sunny weekend use as i always liked them but never got around to buying one, I would just like to know if all 3 models are equally as desirable?I am after a mint example and must be low milage and original :)
I thought this looked like a very nice example 8) does anyone know the car?

you will know straight away if it is a replica
but
rusty arches - not nice to have on a clio but common

he probably said sometimes because at the end of the day its a renault and there high maintenance but real real good fun.

something will break as time goes on Tara but if u buy a minta not much will go wrong and it will be cheap to fix [fatboys williams has never had an expensive bill since he has owned it]

for a minta tho, dont expect to pay any less than 3.5k imo

Hi ya :)

That Williams 3 looks really nice. I'd say go and have a look at a few others first though, just to get an idea.

No real difference between the 1,2,3. The 1s are worth slightly more generally, but only because they're the true limited edition one, with the numbered plaque. It's also based on a slightly older model (Phase 1), so some cosmetic details are diffferent. The 2 is almost identical, bar having electric mirrors and side impact bars in the doors. The 3 is a different (nicer I think) shade of blue, and has a sunroof (that commonly leaks). That's basically about it.

They're all identical mechanically speaking though, so it should be down to finding the one in the best condition for the money you can spend.

Good luck!

they are all the same car give or take

dont fall into the willy 1 trap most of the ones i look at have been ragged and are nackered if you want a mint willy 1 start looking hard and be quick they change hands for stupid money still never seen a real minter

the 2 nicest ones i no of are willy 2 (look at gaz 2s)
seem to be in better condition and lower mileage

and lets face it who wants a gold chav plaque :wink:
