Mat for working under cars
Discussion
As above i'm thinking of getting a rubber/sponge mat as need to do a auto box change, to old for much crawling under cars now so something soft with head support wanted. I think a 'crawler' would not be so great because work area is rough concrete and subsequent storage for something i will only use a couple of times a year.
With a Google search i came up with a Gunson mat which folds in half for under £30 from Ebay, anyone got one or better product.

I tend to use a foam camping roll matt.
This sort of thing

But try and get a decent thickness one.
Ebay have them often called exercise matts

Big cardboard box (flattened obviously)
+1 Handy on a gravel drive too, like the duvet you can sleep on it and pretend to be homeless at the same time.On a similar note, who hasn't fallen asleep under a car while working on it at least once? Waking up and immediately whacking your head on the gearbox is a b*****d!
I've been using this everyday for the last 3 years. Cannot fault it:

Hah, I do have a load of cardboard but knowing my luck it'll pee down and i'll be stuck in a mess of oil and soggy cardboard.
Andyjc86 & Sensibleboy both recommend their machinemart mat which both have been using for years so i'll go with that, will check ebay for cheaper price.
Ydnaroo, i checked lidl for that exercise mat, its PINK!!! no man points for you or me if I was caught asleep under a car on that!
