    Passing on your fifth attempt is nowhere near as bad as turning down a drive of a DB9, now that is epic man right removal!

    Re: I did it!

    Well done champ!
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    I didn't buy the car so can't complain too much, and had access to a Polo then a Mazda 2 so it's not too bad

    Speaking of Honda reliability.... how many times have your Civics been back for repair?

    Fixed for you.

    Ironically, you would have been better off in a Rover, than in the civic
