I got one of their low profile jacks for xmas, yet to use it but got it on the strength of other peoples recommendations.
SGS stuff seem to get great reviews and they aren't to pricey either

If you go to Halfords with trade card their low entry Jack is £32.

But sgs is pretty good, they're rather local to me.

I have the halfords entry one, had it for the last 5 years and it's done the job no problems, £50 came with axle stands, wheel chucks and a trolley to lay on all still working Smile

A big one lol
On a serious note the aluminium "race jacks" are good. I have a blueproint one and it's so light and easy to throw about. Think it's 7 pumps to the top Wink

Same as mine and its a quality bit of kit albeit probably more expensive than the average home user wants to spend!
