Them? You mean me. I own 100% of all Clio Williams in the country :)

Sorry, keeping mine for a long, long time.
There was one RHD for sale in Sydney few months ago though.
Try Jap Williams website at: http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/clubwilliams/ But mostly LHD though.

Heh, RHD Clio Williams rarer worldwide. Plus a lot less stressful when overtaking from behind a truck on RHD B-roads :)

I can find out some more details, if you are keen. Clio mk1s were never officially imported to Australia, so that Williams might be the only one in the country. But I think an HSV or a fast Ford would be a smarter choice in Australia. I quite liked the HSV R8 that I drove there.

The Jap Williams were mostly, if not all, privately imported from Europe, so will likely be LHD. Think you will be better off with a Swiss Champion - plus it will be a lot more fun collecting/driving the car back to UK.

The 2 RHD that I am aware of outside UK is mine and the one in Sydney. According to my Renault dealer here, due to the then heavy demand in UK, he had a hard time getting hold of mine. So, I guess there will only be a handful of RHDs that escaped Blighty.

not done a trackday that I saw... unless you count going round Donny at 20mph :wink:

sorry boys, how many miles you both put on your cars now? in fact, I bet i have done more in one year than you two combined have done since you bought them. cant afford to do all these track days and SQM bollox anyway, my cars got FCS left then it's retiring from active WC duty... if it even makes FCS... :shock:

J o n

so that's 1 track day each in my eyes then :lol:

he can have the SQM thing, i'll turn up at pan his time at some point maybe... I think it's safe to say it will run quicker than a 14.9... even in the rain :wink: :lol: (and yes, even with me driving! :P )
