Car Lift for parking issue's
I bought one of these lifts because it enabled me to park both my main car and kit car in my garage at the same time.
I was able to get both cars in without the nosecone fitted with approx 3mm at the front and rear and both cars touching, but this eventually would
have broken my reverse light.
This lift is fantastic and really answered the issue I had, I now have over a foot of space at the front of my car and this includes the nosecone
fitted, the car is lifted high enough for me to drive my car under the back of my kitcar.
The company who sell them are C&J Auto's in Heywood, Manchester. Not cheap, but if parking is tight, well worth it, I had tried everything
else including winches, hoist's etc:

I was looking at getting one of those lifts a while ago. Are they very easy for one person to move?
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Yeah they are pretty easy to move around, they have several sets of nylon wheels and the whole thing maybe weighs the same as a 28" tv to
lift.
The lift is pretty unique as once lifted or whilst lifting it allows you to tilt the car up in the air.

You can put it in the middle of the car and either lift it all up and tip it side to side or back to front, but once its on the lift, you will not
manage to move the car unless you have one of those showroom marble type floors.
