Cheers Pat made me smile! I mean CHRIST ON A F**KIN BIKE! How many times, the c**t in the video is using it wrong! When mine is lifted at the back you could sit an elephant on the bumper and not tilt it! I will make a video to prove, but not today........sore point!

Here is the video, I've had an absolute c**t of an afternoon with a widget from pc world that won't work with windows 7 properly.....nearly gave up! And to all those commenting on my last thread.......Yep I did a risk asessment before I posted this.......................GOD STREWTH!!!! Talk about whinging poms!

Yep it's dangerous, don't buy one! I want to be the only kid in the street with this!........Wish I had never started the thread!

The guy in the video is not using it as per the instructions! Instructions state when lifting the front move the lift as far forward to the front wheels as possible, in this situation it will not tilt. There is a locking pin, I haven't had chance to check this out further....yet! They do say to use axle stands in conjunction with this for safety. You would be a fool not to though!

I will put mine onto youtube in the next couple of days

Welcome! You can post pics on your thread, highlight the box above where you are writing......4th from left says "image" click this and then upload from hard drive. Simples!!!! Ps just make sure the pixel size isn't too big. :)

I like to live dangerously! There were a few bags of silica gel in the wrapping, the ones that say "Do not Eat".........I tasted a little!

Here's the ebay link for one on a buy it now. Keep watching and they list some at £348 + postage. Or try £325 on this one, as I said they accepted my offer. Group buy may also work, I spoke to them on the phone and they were nice people. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/mobile-lift-ramp-tilter-restoration-ramp-jig-car-roller-/230634663792?pt=UK_Lifting_Moving_Equipment&hash=item35b2e5af70 I totally agree that you need to be careful where you lift the car, I took the weight very slowly at first and checked the door gaps. That said it does spread the load over a wide area. Here's a link to someone else selling them at £360 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MOBILE-TILTING-CAR-LIFT-RAMP-NEW-/260841155664?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3cbb582c50

My car is low, didn't realise how low till I tried the trolley jack. Had to buy the ultra low one from Machine mart to fit under! The lifting frame slid under with help from the trolley jack under the front subframe on one side. So yep no probs. Oh and it's adjustable for width so chassis rails or sill area or both.

It is that! Haven't got space for a two post lift at the min so this is next best thing. They also do a "spit" for major rebuild. ---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ---------- search for cjautos on ebay.......I bid £325 and they accepted! ---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ---------- Don't bid on the auction ones, make an offer on the buy it now. People are paying £450 in the auction......silly buggers!

Bought this off ebay this week and finally got chance to give it a test run this evening, brilliant piece of kit. Lifts either end of the car or whole car flat. [ATTACH=CONFIG]48926[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]48927[/ATTACH]

You can buy the tool on ebay for rolling arches, not expensive

Hahah!!!! :) Every day my friend.......every day! ;)

Well said emu..........I wonder if it's ok to be buried in a Corrado? ;) And what's with the whole age thing anyway? My wifes 17 years younger than me.....and she still manages to keep up!

I will dig it out in a few minutes, it may take all evening it's in a big box of video tapes! One other funny thing, he say's not to buy a yellow one, as it knocks the resale value for six!........Wrong! :)

I have the Top Gear video, the one where Andy Wilman, (Clarksons brother-inlaw and now the shows producer) drove the very last green storm from the factory to the VW museum. His Quote was " If this isn't a future classic, I'll eat my trousers on toast!" I will convert and upload to youtube if anyone is interested?

40s the new 20! :)

Red to red, black to black, switch it on and stand well back!!!!!

All sorted for 3k is pretty good, to be fair it looked a pretty good example at the side of a lot thats for sale.

Just a pair of 4 cyl TDi's........stand on one leg and squint a bit........presto hey, it's a V8! ;)

Welcome, I was messaging him on ebay when he wanted 3k for the car. Obviously the car wasn't as good as he said it was! I think you paid what I told him it was worth!

Tom you should have put him a TDi engine in that Cerbera......would have been more reliable! Lol

Too late I've gone to find Trevor!!!! hahaha :)

TVR TVR TVR..........that's it I'm leaving! lol
