Been covered here before but I couldn't find something suitable.
OK, I've been looking for a trolley jack for ages and Machine Marts no vat sale has spurned me on again.
Basically, I would like more room to move under the car as my cheapo jack barely lifts the car off the ground. The other problem is that now that my car is lowered (the front bumper is about 85mm off the tarmac) it is impossible to get my present jack under without riding up on my crappy homemade wooden ramp.
There's this Draper but I don't think it will reach the front crossmember (Ive got amazon vouchers to spend as well)

Then theres the Clarke one, same problem of reach though

And this one might have the reach but it is only 1.5 tonne

Or this kind of crappy looking but super long reach Liftmaster but it only lifts the car 375mm

Finally the SGS one which I quite like but is a compromise on clearance (98mm)

So, super low, long reach trolley jacks that are under £150. Recommendations if I am missing any please.
Or do I need to just settle for one of the above and jack the tow hock on the front with the old one and then slide the better jack under the front after that? I just don't want to be bothered using my crap ramp anymore.
Ps I use axle stands too, so don't fret
