      If your car is lowered then it may be an issue Nick, I just drive mine onto a piece of 1/2" wood beforehand.

        can someone measure the height of it when fully lowered and also the reach? before the side parts start to go upwards if you know what i mean,i need it for a few cars not just mine,but if it will clear mine then it will be ok for the others

          Mines broken already Ben! Lent it to my sisters BF and he managed to snap a lug which holds the pole to the jack (the twat!).

          Its a great jack, does everything its supposed to!

                  Some good info there thanks Ben, however, is this not the Jack that Kelv had and all the bearings in the wheels fell out within a year or so of him owning it or something?

                  500mm as Nick says is a good increase over the M/Mart ones!

                    No, completely different from the machine mart ones...........

                      Huh? I know the above pictured one is different from the Machine Mart ones but I thought that the above jack was the one that failed on Kelv?

                        No, as Kelvins had a solid bar on the front! And I'm sure he got his in machine mart......

                        The one pictured above as far as I'm aware is different.

                        anyway, why not try one first before offering opinions. and mines had some abuse already (and the bit that broke doesnt count as we were told how he managed this!).

                          will measure the height of it for you Nick, not sure what you mean by the reach though probably be Friday by the time I get chance to get the measurements but will let you know, working in Wandsworth is killing my bloody social life

                          how the hell did he manage that mines had a bit of abuse from my mates thinking it would be fun to jack themselves up nothing broken yet on mine

                          No the one that broke was very similar to the one above but as Jason said it was the front wheel design that was shit, as he said it had a solid bar at the front without any wheels on the side, this is a much more sturdier jack than those ones

                            He couldn't get the pole to locate Ben (as the screw had been wound in) so he forced it down, snapping a small, black, plastic locator off the end! the fcukin Div!
