Apologies if this thread has been run before.

Anyone know of a good car lift that would fit in an average to large double garage?

It needs to lift an Esprit, but it would be nice if it could do the bike as well.

Has to be available in the UK.

Thanks.

A Pal of mine has one that will lift his HRG, so should cope with an Esprit. Don't know the manufacturer, but will try and find out this weekend.

Seems a great piece of kit, no posts, just drive on, and push the switch - raises the car in a couple of minutes using scissor lift principle. Once up, insert safety clips and job done.

Cheers

Pat,

Try for a 2 post lift like Molnar or equivalent from an auction.

I picked up a nice 2 post hoist for AUD$2,000 (700 pounds) from a garage that was closing down. It was a 3 phase hoist but could be easily converted to single phase if I needed to do it.
