I could only find this one:

But, if I needed more space, I'd just go with a bigger Lian-Li... Like a PC70 series tower

These guys also have a good reputation for hardware, and, You can get almost any of their cases with a window.

Price is another concern, this case has had a few good reviews from what i ahve found, this case is £65 where as a chieftech is £90 without the window, Lian-Li where going nearly double the chieftech price

Ohh believe me i understand ;(

Cash on hand is always a powerfull incentive or limitation, as the case may be

I'll keep my eyes open for you... UK huh.

Yep UK, I was originally intending to go for a chieftech but i owe my mam money and i wont be able to afford a chieftech plus the window(especially considering that the window is £30 for a side panel, making it nearly double the price of the antec case even though they are pritty much identical except that the antec has 2 fans on the rear of the case , and the antec case comes with the window , where the chieftech has only 4 fans and no window.
 
The Antec 1000 in all its gloury,
 

 
£65.80
 
If you ask me thats a damn nice looking case
 
The chieftech case,
 

 
£89.80
 
I prefer the Antec out of the 2, and i get an extra rear case fan 8) and the window , personnaly they look so like, they have same features, same internal looks, Not to mention i can keep another £25

Just bought this case a couple days ago for my Bro.
 
THe Case Rocks. we got some Neon fans to go with it too.
 
THe only drawback is lack of thumb screws. but you can take them from your Lian Li or buy new ones.
 
I will probably buy an Antec Case for my next purchase
