Anyone know of an okish cheap (under £60) trolley jack? Its only for the odd weekend oil change etc on the saxo, so a two tonner would be more than enough. The last one I got was pants :n:

Like people have said, the halfords one is pretty bullet proof.

Brothers got a cheap argos special one, does the job but wont win any awards and the throw is tiny so takes ages to lift. Best to splurge if its getting repeated use

ive got a cheap one for a tenner at wickes like 5 years ago lol still works fine
obviously i wont trust my life with it, hence why i always have an axle stand under there (which you should have anyway)

Regardless the make the seals can always fail, even on the best makes.
