Really need to get one this week lol? Your not very patient are you :wink:
Take your time and find a good one :P
I no but im off work this week and could really do with one for when i go back! :(
and i hate not being able to drive any were!
i used to live in macclesfield, used to live opposite the hospital, well opposite the cricket pitch just before the hill up towards the roundabout. Road was Linnet Grove.
Id take ur time , dont be too impatient
oh yea im in tytherington!
i now im just not too good at being patient!!! :?
thanks tho!
well i would get some! not being funny but u dont know how much money these cars can cost u! buy one without having a look round may cost u a couple of k in repairs.
there is a couple of 3's for sale at the mo in scotland and a couple of them are v nice!
it just gettin there and its starin to look like i havnt got enough money! how much would you say you should pay for a good one?
generally the more you pay, the better it will be.
around 3k should get you a nice williams.
any cheaper and they tend to have problems that will cost £££ to repair.
some people have bought rite bargins recently tho ~2k! :shock:
imo up to 4k
4k would be my topline
well that is what im looking to spend(2k)! as im only 20 the insurance is quite high and need some money to pay the deposit!
what should the milage be like on the car cos the ones ive seen at the mo are really high? :?
varys condition is better than milegae.
i bought mine last year for 4k on 77k and its on 81k now........
remember 10k a yr is app the av
yeah, i wouldnt bother too much with milage.
people always rave on about how many miles the car has done but imo it isnt very crucial.
id rather buy a 110k williams thats been looked after than a 75k williams thats never been cared for!
if your only 20 and only got 2k to spend, look at buying a mint valver, as you will find it hard to get a good williams for that, and keep it running!
i love the williams tho!!!
:P
matt uk offered me his car but it seems to have done alot of miles?
spending only 2k on a williams is just asking for trouble imho unless you are really lucky.
save some more cash or just buy something else for the time being is my advice.
considered a williams powered 16v hybrid?
cheaper option. doesnt have the pedigree tho! :wink:
just luck of the draw anyway, u can buy what u think is a minter and have to rebuild it anyway. dont do the hybird or valver route as u want a williams and choosing a cheaper alternative will only leave u still wanting. u said ur bf has a 5 turbo and knows how to maintain that so maybe u shud buy a shitter and get him to help u restore it.
thanks
is any one on here sellin one that may need a bit of work doin but nothin major???
