I got it from Motorhouse 2000 http://www.motorhouse2000ltd.co.uk it set me back 12k on the road, its a EU import so i saved about 3.5k on dealer prices. And yes it is very quick for a little hatch 0-60 range between 6.8 and 7.2 Evo mag have got it down to 6.6, 0-100 17.5 and 1/4 mile can be anything from 14.5 to 15 dependant on driver. It also comes well equiped with air con, auto lights and wipers, anti hijack, trip computer and half leather. MPG is not to good but if you have a scooby you will prob think it is great. And also the insurance is not to bad im 23 with one crash under my belt 3 years NCD and i pay just under £800 with Tesco. Great car get one you will love it.

Thumbs up

great little cars
I'll always have a soft spot for fast little Renaults having run a modded16V Clio and then a Williams in the early/mid 90's.
In years to come I'll always look back at the williams as one of my favourite cars. Also sold it for just 500 quid less than I payed for it after 2 years! meaning I had a big enough deposit for my first scooby

Go for it Scooby_manc, Trade Sales in Slough have got them for £11,699. Absolute damn bargain. They are serious fun, and a totally different thing to a Scooby, nimble, steer on the throttle, lovely.
