Trolley Jack for a Boxster

Apologies if this has been asked before - did a search without success - I'm looking for a trolley jack to undertake some cosmetic work on my boxster next week.

Took brief ownership of a Halfords jack earlier today but it wasn't low enough to fit underneath the jacking points.

Can anyone recommend one that they have used successfully?

Thanks in advance.

I've got one of these. Perfect.

I went with a Torin Racing Jack and bought it whilst I was in the US (Shipped with house furniture).

It looks similar, but they aren't the same. The Torin one is dual piston.
 
Costco do a nice jack, very low at the front to get under low cars and with a 3 tonne rating - always nice to have an extra factor of safety with these things.
 
Hi,

Thanks for all the prompt replies,

Visited the Leeds machinemart yesterday but they didn't have one in stock.

Will work my way through the other two suggestions.

Thanks again,

Steve H.
