CasperGTI Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Looks alright, but you usually get what you pay for. The pad is quite small, and might cause some damage when you jack it up. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxy Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 ^^^ Thats the one ive got, great bit of kit. When they were in stock I always talked myself out of buying 2, but now I really wish I had, they havnt had them in stock for well over a year.Beware of the alloy ones with a single central roller, i have one of those and 3 cars have rolled off it.

NOCK Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 I'm probably going to get shot down in flames here but...I bought this for papa swan for Christmas, and to be honest was quite pleasantly surprised at how good it was (for the money):Please don't shout at me for sending you to Halfrauds!The 'creeper' isn't awesome but even if you don't use it, it's still good value I reckon.

jon_273 Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Apart from the fact that it doesn't go anywhere near low enough for a lowered car (min saddle height 140mm vs 79mm for the machine mart one), that looks a reasonable deal.
