This may very well be back up for sale soon, i'm trying to keep it confinded to an enthusiast so it's here too. I wish I could keep it but simply dont have the time and money to do what I would like (and skill) due to uni!
Gutted that i'm selling but I just want something quicker. I'll be totally honest, the bodywork needs a full respray as there are some cracks, and the odd scratch and dent and would need delocking where someone broke in. Also the wheels need a refurb. If those were done, it would awsome, I just simply don't have the time or money to carry out this work. It's an absolute classic and it would be great if someone could restore it back up to show quality. Also ripe for a 1.8 16v conversion as it's currently a 1.4, I can include a running 1.8 16v clio in the sale for £200. Never seen another Dimma in Sheffield, makes everyone look if that's your thing. This was done by Dimma btw at a cost of around £5,000 by the previous owner not the cheap crap you would buy on ebay. I'm asking £1400 which I think is fair! Cheers.
