you could remove the fake S8 badge without hurting your knees too :D

Looks a good piece of kit, do you feel safe crawling underneath?

And how much, and where from?

+1


Looks a cracking bit of kit.
How stable is it?
Does it effect the sills much?

Not a fake badge
 
its a real genuine badge that comes with the grill
and the S stands for sport.......lol

ok the (scissor lift)
its by STRONGMAN TOOLS in leamington spa
it cost just shy of £3000
i looked at many others (cheaper ones)
this one is mega sturdy its a right piece of kit
it lifts off the original sill jacking points same as audi use
its basically a 4 post ramp with NO posts
it lifts 1.8 meters high so you can walk under it with no obstructions
(im highering my garage roof soon)

Is it car specific then, or could you use it for other cars with jacking points in different positions?

Yes any vehicle
