Many hours of labour was spent on the car and I have probably missed a few things, but you are more than welcome to see the paper work (I have a large folder full of receipts).
For the past 2 years, all work has been carried out by Mark Fish to an extremely high standard and any questions about the mechanical integrity of the car past what I have said can be verified by him.
The previous owner had the Williams in storage for about 5 years while he was travelling, hence the low mileage. I looked long and hard for a Williams, and this is one of the best examples I have seen, condition wise and definitely performance wise. The body work is in good condition, very very slight rust starting to come through on the bottom of the driver's door. No rust on the arches, which is uncommon for these cars. The wheels are also in good condition, could do refurb to get back to perfect but they are straight and true. The interior is in excellent condition, with no rips, burns or stains.

Bad bits, every car has them! Thin Scratch on driver's side rear quarter, it was there when I brought the car but is not that noticeable (I will get a pic), Stone chips on the bonnet which is unavoidable. Passenger side window is slow on the up and the passenger side switch is temperamental, but driver's side works fine. I only got one key with the Williams. The oil level gauge is temperamental (I think it's a loose wire).

I have tried to be as honest as possible and list everything I can remember; although I'm sure I have forgotten some things. Anyone looking for one of these should know what a Williams is all about and what I am selling. I'm not going to accept silly offers, I would rather put it back in storage, and ideally, I would really like it to go to an enthusiast, someone who will take care of her. I have always tried to maintain the car as best I can and in the last 3 years I have spent ££££ on parts alone. I will be sad to see her go, cos I wanted one of these since I was a kid, I have had four (2 Valver`s and 2 williams) and feel it's time to move on. There isn't a baby on the way, or a new house, lol, I just want a change.

[Tommo]

Lovely example mate and priced about right imo. Could be the wrong time to sell though, maybe worth putting into storage till the summer and when the market picks up a bit?

[schakal]

TALK TO ME !! :D

Just a little advice, I would definitely get the wheels refurbed and buy some new centre caps, and get the bump strips back to original (no gold) as these things (although small) would put me off a bit to be honest.

Thanks for the advice Tommo, been told that before actually but thought the price was right for what i am offering...i actually think the willi is worth more than the asking price, but thats my own opinion. I could get the wheels refurbed, and the center caps sorted, but that would mean selling it at a much higher price...

[Wobba]

Sort the front numberplate too, that broken bit is a sign of being towed :)

I didnt think there was a williams around that hasnt been towed ;-)

[MattC1]

I am looking for a Williams at the moment :D . I appreciate your honesty but the mention of "The oil level gauge is temperamental (I think it's a loose wire)" does put me off personally as I wonder if it could be more than that. Price wise there is one on Pistonheads for £3250 that has done a few less miles and doesn't have the issues with the alloys and bumper strip too. At the moment both yours and the one on Pistonheads are just unfortunately :( out of my reach, but unless the Pistonheads one is hiding something that would be the one I would look at.

Happy selling

No probs, they are just the things I would do to try and get the best possible price and to get the phone ringing. It's your car though mate, good luck with the sale... :D

So Matt...

Did you jump on this thread to tell people about another williams for sale that is better than this one???? i dont understand your post, why would you do that, there is another section in this forum where you can add links for cars you have seen. The oil level sender needs replacing, thats it, there is nothing else. There are no oil leaks, loss of oil water or anything so im not sure what your getting at?
