Alfamale Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 As they say on homes under the hammer, It's been nearly five years, lets go back and see what he has done: So its had a full, back to metal respray which has cost £££. The williams has a fantastic cult following and members of the WilliamsClio forum on facebook have been helping with remanufactured bits and good secondhand parts. The wheels have been refurbished, all the brakes gone through and sorted, a new exhaust system has been done front to back, reproducton number plates with supplying dealer have been made, the list goes on... Next up is it is off for an MOT in the week, and is booked in with a specialist later in the month for a Cambelt and water pump and few other little niggles to be sorted. Like I have always said, this will be a keeper and will get used as Williams intended. All being well, its first big trip will be the NC500 either at the back end of this summer or in spring next year. nacho man, 808 Estate, spartacus and 19 others 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfamale Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Thanks Dan. It really does look the dogs. The paint lad has been anal with the proper paint codes, even making sure the trim and plastics are the correct shades of grey. The side graphics are perfect reproductions and you really can tell close up, they came with a kit to ensure that they were placed mm perfect onto the car where they should be. If you ever up around Sheffield/Chesterfield give me a shout, you are more than welcome to come and have a look 👍 nacho man and Eyersey1234 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyersey1234 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I'm not really a fan of French cars to be honest but this one looks chodtastic. I do miss the Nicole/Papa adverts though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard_FM Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Yes that was funny! Anyone noticed Renault is another manufacturer who has changed their logo, going back towards the "stripy diamond" look of the 1970s-80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

808 Estate Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I preferred the 1919 logo. Eyersey1234 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
