maybe make the williams more?

[Gav]

do you think that renault n williams should of done more to the williams b4 putting in the sales market?
I mean, 2.0 ltr, 16v body.

today u got the 1.4 16v [rn/rt] 172[rsi] 182 [16v] then the mighty v6 which really is the modern day williams, and look how much they jumped from the 182 to the v6!

maybe a 2.5 ltr 24v or something in the williams. Apart from suspension, interior, engine and a few other things its basically the same as a valver

what u think?

williams had nothing to do with the design so thats probably why is wasnt too much different!

Dont swear like that again on here buddy !

TBH i think the 172 CUP is the presentday williams in my eyes. Shares some actual 'official' bits aswell.

... I think a double ban is in order here... can't believe what i'm reading...

V6 is more R5 Turbo 2 replacement... only a proper shit version... why they never made it 300bhp N/A god only knows... then theirs the 1400kg's... recipe for pants car. Looks good though

I don't know, you straight-line merchants. The 255 V6 is a great car. So much fun to hussle around. So what if it's not some sort of quarter mile warrior?!

And besides, the Turbo 2 wasn't very quick as standard.

wouldnt people agree that the trophy is the modern day williams???

or am i just basin that on the fact there both lmtd editions?

[Swervin_Mervin]

I'd say 172 Cup personally. Trophy is a gimmick, out and out.

I thought the main reason behind the Williams was for homologation for the WRC, or the equivilant back then, F2, or something like that..

As originally it was the 1.8 but then Pug brought out the 1.9 205. So Reno upped it to 2.0 and tweaked the steering geometry, but back then you had to make so many to comply with homologation, and seeing as they had won the F1 championship with Williams it was a perfect opportunity for double marketing.

A sly plan, but it worked, so much so they made a version 2 then 3.

No effort from Williams apart from the signiture to use the name.

I'd have to agree... ^^

renault were just trying to flog a few more spare chassis before they brought out the new shapped clio ... all they did was painted them red, chucked buckets in and refurbed their wheels


nothing will touch the mighty Williams
