    Any idea where I would get one of these and how much I would be looking at? Would be handy for an oil change...

    A lot of motor factors, as well as places like halfords have them.... you can get them in metal or in plastic like the ones in your picture....

    I think they are much cheaper than that... i'd say closer to €50 for the metal ones... the plastic ones are much cheaper, but don't give you the same height...

    I have a set of them and they are very handy.... its amazing the difference an extra 6 inches of clearance will make when your working on your car.

    Why not just use the jack and put it up on a few blocks?

    Halfords have the metal ramps alright.

    I bought a set of metal ramps in Halfords (in the Liffey Valley store). They cost about €40.

    Be warned though, they are quite steep, and any vehicle with a low bumper WILL get scratched.

    Halfords also do these (or similar)

    but they are meant for levelling caravans/campers and don't give great height
