Need to sell my clio, really short of money, dangerously short of money so looking for a quick sale.

1995 Naples Clio RSi with Volvo 480 Turbo engine. Body work in very good condition for age, NO RUST, but the odd scratch and ding here and there. With Ph2 Valver wheels, lowered about 40mm all round. Chassis and shell are good. The car has covered 125,000 (ish cant remember exactley) miles but still in good condition.

I bought the engine being told it had covered 65k, cant prove this though. It is a runner, had it running for about three weeks fairly trouble free. The conversion is pretty much complete, all the elctrics are done but need tidying up. Has a custom made downpipe which wasnt cheap.

List of mods:
Universal Front mount intercooler
Aftermarket BOV
Rich Mod ECU
Aftermarket Boost gauge
Aftermarket Water temp gauge
Magnex Backbox
Decat

Just had a brandnew heatermatrix and heater motor resistor fitted so that all works fine. Also used to have leaky sunroof so that has all be sealed up.

Bad points:
-Currently a non runner due to needing a new coil.
- Starting issues, fairly sure this is due to needing a new/stronger battery and not related to the starter motor, however i have 3 spares. Possibly even a bad earth??
- Engine moves quite abit, got an r19 4th engine mount ready to fit which will be supplied.
- Erractic Idle. Not sure about this, possible air leak or faulty ICV.
- Boost pipes like to come off, easily fixed with mikalor clamps, half are done with mikalor clamps and are solid, needs more to finish it off (needs roughly 6-8 more)
- Passenger side electric window doesnt work, when you press the button up you can hear the motor trying to go up, nothing happens on down. Havent looked into this. Also electric sunroof doesnt work.

Thats about it. Taxed untill End of July, and MOT'd untill September. Still on log book as a 1.8 8v. Will be a great fast little sleeper when finished. Wont take alot of money to finish it but i am really struggling with money atm and i dont have the time anymore to work on it.

Would really like to sell to somebody in the club so i know its looked after. IDEALLY NEEDS TO BE TOWED AWAY due to unreliability of boost pipes, and starting issue. But can be driven away if your brave enough. Car is located in Camrbridge, my mobile number is 07783419682.

Looking for £750 OVNO. All realistic offers considered.
