Forgot to update this, I went with Opie in the end. Well priced, well packaged, and 10% off code from here too - result.

Thanks all. Next step - creating some timber ramps so I can actually fit my low profile jack onto the central front jacking point..... nightmare!

Cheers.

for that one just buy a low profile jack from machine mart. 75mm high they are.
I paid 116 for it 2 ton red. oh and nylon wheels so it doesnt mark the drive.

Think the original price is 136
