Good vid, Opti. I did look at some like that but substantially dearer. After some thought as to whether I would get the use of them, taking a number of factors into account, versus the price, I, or should I say swmbo, decided that the ramps at £150 would be better value. 👍🏻😀

What is wrong with good old-fashioned bricks. ::)

I need ramps because I can’t get down at my age to position my trolley Jack. I have a set of standard ramps, but, once I get down, the rotund construction of my body stops me from getting very far under the vehicle. If I need a wheel off, because the vehicle is now higher, using my kneeler, I can position the Jack to get higher and put in axle stands. I feel this new type of ramp will do all that for me, and also allow me to slither under further.😀

Also…………..I haven’t got any bricks ;D ;D ;D ;D
I can get you some bricks, Tony  :y

Now why doesn't that surprise me... ;D ;D

Hi all, I am looking to buy a set of ramps with the hydraulic lift incorporated. You drive on, then Jack up to the full height. I am looking at a set that are rated two ton. Are these safe for an omega. Obviously, it’s only the back or the front being lifted, so surely two ton would be ok. The four ton ones are about fifty quid more. Anybody got these , are they ok
thanks……

Had to shift the cars today as had men in cutting the trees back. Put the Omega down the road in front of the house opposite. Didn't realise I had gone over the low kerb and was on the grass. It had made deep tread marks and when I tried to move it, it started wheel spinning and sunk!!! Eventually it co-operated and got it back down on the road, then spent an hour trying to tamp the ground down and fill the hole. I did go and apologise to the lady when she got home from work, but she was ok about it :D :y

In that case, SWMBO, just after the ww2 vintage, needs a refurbishment ;)

I saw on the TV about Robert Duvall, but strangely, no mention of Lonesome Dove. Seems to me, every time I watch a video on social media, there is always a clip of that show !!! I always thought it was one of his well known jobs :(
