Machine mart have special in store offers every now and again and you can get low entry ally jacks for around £80. They do sell out very quick though!

PM "Renton" off here, he does some good ones and good deals. I got a steel one that can lift 3 tonnes that has fantastic low reach . He also does a nice alloy one, which I "think" is rated at 1.5 tonnes

Thats the one i bought a couple of years back , ive had it apart several times now and its finally given up on me , i dont rate them as value for money unless you can buy them cheaper than the £130 i gave for one ! Makes a horrible rasping noise when you use it too , like the fluid holes too small or something .

give Danny B a pm, he's got two and can get um

Probably the same as the costco one...

http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/pr...m-trolley-jack

I believe they are all made in China in teh same factory and are simply badged/packaged based on artwork sent to them. You probably need to buy a container's worth at a time though!
