3 ton bottle jack for £7 including delivery
Ignoring the fact it might not be any good, how can they build, supply and ship this for £7?
If I rang MyHermes for a quote for a lump of stone that weight, it would be greater than £7

Just don't have any limbs under the Disco when you jack it up! It may well work fine, but I wonder for how long. I've been to too many Chinese manufacturing plants to want to try one for myself! Richard

I bought it for the sankey to be honest.
And yes, I would rate it better use than the lovely Land Rover scissor jacks (I still have one in my car!)D3 07 SE - still going strong
