Im after some low car ramps but these are the only 2 i can find.

Want these

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/long-low-incline-car-lifting-Ramps-2000Kg-pair-NEW-/120475059720?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Lifting_Moving_Equipment&hash=item1c0cdf8608

But the price seems steep and the only other ones i can find are these.

Anyone used either of these or can recommend any other ramps?

when doing homers at the side of the house, usually its servies so its a piece of piss to drive up these and drain the oil change the filter. instead of being out with a jack and stands. just makes some jobs to do a lot quicker and easier

I want some because im going to be undersealing the car when im on my holidays from work and think it will be so much easier driving the car up the ramps and jacking the back end up and using axle stands on the rear so the whole car is off the ground so i can get under properly without having to jack one side up then undersealing one half of the car then dropping it back down then jacking the other side up to do the other half.

Some standard ramps and two pieces of wood are much cheaper
