oh and welcome! :D

thx for the welcome does anyone think the williams 2 and 3 are ok or do you all think the best is the williams 1 :D

[Coops]

if i was after one to get back to/keep totally std as a collectors classic i'd get a williams 1. but my favourite is williams 2. imo willy 3 is a no go, its got a sunroof!

oh n welcome!

Williams 1's are more collectable but i would keep an open mind, don't miss out a minter just cos it's a 2.

williams 3 all the time!!! the refined article!!! sunroof,ABS,phase 2 trim,electric mirrors and the best colour! ,monaco blue!!!!!!!!!!! plus there not as old as the willy 2 and 1

the gearbox aint that bad if treated right
same things to look for as any older 13-14 year old car
mainly look for rust ( arches sills boot drain holes) and service history
when starting from cold oil will be at about3 bar raises to 5-6 when driven
when warm idles at 1000rpm oil pressure should be around 1 or 0 bar
3bar at a steady 30mph rising as you accelerate
good luck finding a minter
there are 1 or 2 mint ones for sale here

williams has a plauqe ( little wing mirrors-449 blue)
willy 2 has abs + strength in doors ( different grill+mirrors+door mouldings - 449 blue)
willy3 as above + sun roof (maybe airbag?)( different grill again +mirrors+door mouldings - 434 blue)
all have same trim and engine
i prefer having a williams because of the plauqe

willy 2's never had abs
willy 3's never had an airbag

[wavy]

scrap that then lol thought they did have abs also wasnt sure on 3's air bag

and its 432 monaco blue

one of the other shit places for rust is at the bottom of the doors - on the cars I've had the sills, bootlid and arches were not too bad but the bottom of the doors were wank

[wavy]

i'll close the door behind me
