Doesn't it scratch the paint on the bottom of the sills?

They are an excellent addition to the garage John. I'll be going down the same route in my old man's garage.
Only thing to watch is that they lift the car high enough for whatever you need.
Basic servicing, wheels and tyres etc it's fine but sometimes they don't give you enough lift to get the car up and clear of say an engine and gearbox. You can't exactly tilt up the rear when it's up like that.
Also worth bearing in mind if you're sinking it into the floor a couple of inches.

Thanks guys, Ollie i've got 1 metre and 3 cm clearance before it hits the garage door opener so a metre in the air is all i'm getting regardless  , it's not really for major mechanical work more for the winter clean, being able to get undertrays off and properly underneath will be great  John

Ah, now there's another issue. Are the undertrays full length?
Other than an exhaust that runs down the centre of the car these are not much use for anything in the middle third.
If it's just front and rear trays yer fine.
