Williams in Bristol

Do any of you guys use these people, they were once official dealers, and still offer a service facility.
I'm in the Glos. area so apart from Newtown, ( whom I don't want to use ), these guys are the nearest.
Or, alternatively would you travel to one of the other specialists.

Steve, any reason why you don't want to use Newtown motors?

I'm on the lookout for a Noble and they would be the closest for me as well.

I used to be based with work in your area for a couple of years, at that time I would still take it to the factory rather than Williams...
Have you thought of contacting D_G who owns a garage in Nailsea and also owns a Noble, I would have thought he would be a lot better bet.
Although I am assuming he will still do a service, but IIRC he was talking about it, was also a LOT more relistic on price.
If I was still based there, thats were I would go.
HTH.

Just there general attitude, have been down there a couple of times, once was when they were into TVR's, the other when they were noble dealers, both times they failed to get back to me with any sort of deal.
Just thought if that was a sign of things to come if you ever did buy anything from them.
I always go on gut instinct.
I am currently looking into a couple of local motorsport people, so might go down that route, but am still open to suggestions.

Bought my car new from Williams and found the service useless so l personally wouldn't touch them, bit of a journey but worth it take it to Noble Motorsport or nearer Ray West.

I've used them both (Newtown & Williams) and found them both to be good. Although Newtown is further it means a longer drive. But hey! That's what it's all about.

[mgbond]

They were selling mine on behalf of someone else (Newtown)and They couldn't tell me if it had a TDS and asked if I found out how to tell could I let them know. Ha Ha

i am based in bristol and was thinking of using williams @ bristol for my 2.5 2001 noble. they use to be a noble dealer/service centre and so i am hoping they have some knowledge!?
i need two new rear tyres - P7000 on at present - these are no longer available - any advise on what type to fit?
i am also looking to upgrade the exhaust system - have cotacted roush but they can not supply one for the 2.5 model!! - any advice!

I have a Roush exhaust on my 2.5. It was fitted by them last year, and i believe its the only 2.5 they've done. It's actually a 3.0 system with custom made front pipes by Piper (who make the Roush exhausts). Call Piper, get hold of the project guy who dealt with my job. Confirm if your car went to Roush that they could make a pair of front pipes (i think they made a pair of jigs), then call Roush again. Speak to Trevor, i'm sure he'll remember me

Alternativly, it's possible my front pipes will be for sale when i've fitted my M400 engine later this Spring.

Would you still be selling your exhaust - if so when + how much?
