    Question Decent Nova jacking points

    I'm sick of the rubbish jacking points on a Nova. Can I get something decent welded on to make jacking up easier? What do the works cars have?
    Don't squat with your spurs on.

    Jack it on the rear beam for the back

    For the front ,jack it underneath the lower arm rear bush mounting.

    I never use the jacking points

    Use a trolley jack

    Thought they were for repairing Tesco's wire-caged badboys?

    Yeah, but Waitrose's have integral front and rear strut braces.

    whatever.

    Morrisons have treaded wheels, for improved wet carpark handling

    Yeah yeah.

    Pales into insignificance compared to Marks and Spencer's lightweight alloy castor wheels.

    naah, you need a old safeway one. that had that traction control so you could go round corners easier. With those you could never go wrong.
