It started out as a limited run of 400 cars with numbered plaque's on the dash, however Renault spoilt the exclusivity by releasing the Williams 2 and Williams 3 in subsequent years

The Williams had a wider front track, 23mm wider iirc, from end compared the the ordinary Clio 16v, it also had a closer ratio gearbox, although 5th gear was the same in both cars iirc, the 2ltr engine was a lot better as it had a longer stroke crank meaning more torque and response was vastly improved, the head had larger valves and better cams, it also came fitted with a tubular 4-2-1 manifold compared to the 16v's cast 4-1 manifold.

Oh and they were all 'Williams' blue colour with different interior to the original 16v.
