    ^^^^ what he said.

    Put it this way, a Williams 1 is always going to be worth more than a 3.

    And 0425, which is a multiple show inner and one of the best, if not the best Williams 1 around, just sold for around £6k...

    Why is a 1 going to be worth more than a 3??? ok I know the pro's and cons for each model bla bla bla but the 3 is the rarest one in the UK. depends what he wants!

    Don't worry about bolt on performance parts. These can be easily removed.

    Buy the best you can afford!!!!

    If he won't take a penny lest than what he wants - Then that is the price you pay if you want it!!!

    'If not the best Williams 1 around'

    That's some statement there Glyn. Glad your happy with it pal. Look forward to seeing this at FCS!

    willy 3 is a valver shell, worth 20p tbh, i'd pay 7k for a 13k mile Williams 1, but never for a 3.

    but that's just me!lol!

    Value is subjective, but the Williams 1 has the plaque and I personally would pay big money for a mint low mile one, not a 3. It's personal preference, but if it was worth 10k it would have gone already to a certain Mr Brown!

    IMO there is no difference in value between the 1, 2 and 3. That said, I wouldn't pay £10k for any one. They aren't worth it at all, and 0425 was probably the best Williams going and that went for £6k so there is your ceiling.

    Anyone with a Willy will be able to tell you that getting a 100k Willy up to 0425 standard will cost much less than £6k.

    And I read that this one has some aftermarket parts. That should reduce the price too. If it is a museum piece, then I'd say £5k maximum.

    This is my point. It is worth what someone is willing to pay. Saying its worth 5k max is rubbish.

    Mat Brown only wants a 1. That's his choice. Everyone is different!

    Forum talk - don't you just love it!
