With all the revelations recently RTE has to make a lot of changes.  One immediate one is the angelus. Instead of going Ding Dong it now has to go Ding Mong.

That telescopic wheel brace is a good find John
Yep, I have one too, and got one on which one can fit different size heads, also went mad and carry a small hydraulic jack, can't be bothered with those fiddly wrist breaking ones that come with most cars. Also delighted to be back with a car that has a spare wheel, albeit a spacesaver type. The last 6 years without a spare wheel in the last car was a real pain. A slow punture was ok with the compressor, but anything worse was a major hassle.
Have you a link for the hydraulic jack? In the meantime, I use AXA assist for wheel changes, fuck 'em I pay for it.
Yeah, nothing special, a little heavy, possibly available cheaper, haven't had to use it yet thankfully, but I will no doubt.

Trump has called for help, so I'm on a plane heading for The Strait of Hormuz, talk soon.

Holy shit Bob that's a proper garage jack.Fair play if you have the space to carry it.I think that one would slow down my Prius..

There are more compact lighter bottle hydraulic jacks available online.

Maybe you're winding us up?

I've one of them too Bob,  maybe a little smaller but it's a proper trolley jack.  Got it in tallaght auto parts a while back for around 60 quid. Only thing is you have to cable tie it to the side of the boot because it rolls around otherwise because of the wheels.  The bar would come in handy in a scrap too. It has a nice hand grip on it and a metal pin sticking out the end so no one is gonna grab it out of your hand.  Fairly heavy too.

A nice bit of kit, I'll keep it in mind. May you never have to use it.

If any of you are smart about yourself, or even have to spruce up for a court appearance, maybe try one of these:
It beats ironing.

And like Horse's advice on other uses for trolley jack levers, it's great in a fight. All you need to do is ask your victim to stand still with his/her arms by their side while you wait a couple of seconds for the steamer to heat up... then scald them. 8)

..... I did look into buying a space save,shudda taken the 17" spacecsaver out of the Prius.
In my first Avensis I bought a full size spare wheel fer 50 notes in a scrapyard and offered the dealer my space-saver fer free. He wouldn't take it saying that he had loads of them and no one wants them. So you might pick up a space-saver fer your nua motor fer pittance in a scrapyard.
Personally I would be very uncomfortable driving without a spare.

I haven't tried this stuff yet but fully intend to (as it comes highly recommended) the next time my Poxy Fookin DPF light comes on.

@ Harry, How are you finding that hydraulic jack ?

I'm thinking of getting one myself, but not sure which one to go fer ?
