bought this jack
it's a complete beast, 79mm retracted hewight so fits under my ridiculously low car so no more scissor jacks!! Plus it goes up to 400mm which is quite a bit higher than a normal trolley jack
All aluminium aswell. I know it's quite boring but i'm well chuffed with it

nah, draper one costs more as the legs to the rear wheels are shiney and you get an extra draper sticker.

I paid £92 from machine mart... also my rubber pad is more knobbly
It fits under mine, but the GSi reps do have cut outs underneath for the jacking points.

i wouldn't be worried, as your not holding the full's car's weight on it, and it's only for lifting, not like your going to acctually do work on it, while it's supporting a car up

unless your omega weights 2.5 tonnes it will be fine as it only ever lifts half the car at most.

There's the shiny legs, the fact that the jacks are the same only in that they are both jacks and the draper one might not drop the car on you.
