If a ground sheet is sewn in , it's already fully attached to the tent, and can't be removed , so you couldn't buy a sewn in groundsheet.
Do you mean that your groundsheet lies flat on the floor of your tent, but you have clips that you could attach a bathtub style or riser groundsheeet , that would rise up the sides of the tent?
if this is what you mean, you could make your own , with a tarpaulin, several inches bigger than the base footpirint of your tent and attach hooks or toggles to fix to the clips you have inside your tent.
I'm not sure why you would have these clips if the groundsheet you already have doesn't clip to them? Unless you haven't got the original groundsheet that came with the tent perhaps?

Just had a look through the sales adverts, and it says that it has a detachable sheet in the living area. This would account for the clips you mention. If you had it from new. it could be worth contacting the supplier for help.

I'd rather be kayaking.
Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.
Yep, agree with raf48, if you have had the tent from new then it should have been supplied with the detachable living area groundsheet. First port of call perhaps should be the retailer, then the manufacturer if they can't or won't help.
Yeh, just bought one of these myself. Not had a chance to set it up yet, so can't say for definate but the 2008 model is described as 'having a rising groundsheet to keep out dust and unwanted pests' I'm therefore assuming that this is what the clips are for.
If the groundsheet doesn't clip on, then my guess would be that you've got the 2008 tent with an earlier groundsheet.
As others have said, speak to the retailer in the first instance.
