Clicky

Handy bit of kit, but a tad pricey for what it is.
Would be alot cheaper to build your own surely..
But Would make working on the Cerb alot easier, short of having a pit or hydraulic ramp.

I purchased a 4 poster 3 tonne lift from the Classic motorshow last weekend, its main use is for car storage, one on top one under, but it has jacking points front and rear so you can use it as a full mechanics ramp.

I've got one of these coming in the next couple of weeks, so that I can get under the car comfortably and get some work done on the chassis, will let you know what they are like to use.

As far as I know ours is the most cost effective system, lightest, easiest to store and best quality materials etc etc. If you have room, height and wonga it doesn't compare to an electric four post lift but is a good all round system. Easily used in a single or double garage at home.

Which one did you get? I was looking to do something similar.
