Well be careful and just lift it on one side then, can still get far enough under to get to sump.
Double jack it just incase, can never be too careful.
Iv a habit of putting the wheel under the sill when working on a car, keeps it out the way and if the worst was to happen it will maybe land on the wheel and support it to some extent rather than all the way to the floor
Maybe it would do nothing but hopefully never find out

I stack 2 wheels under it  handy having a stack of wheels in the garage though. Servicing a 1.0 is piss easy, just ensure you have a fuck off adjustable spanner for the oil filter housing.
