Expensive, I paid less than half that for a similar one in a supermarket.Thanks chaps. I found this one, its a 3T, and seems to be about 7 or 8 inches taller.

Lift still not tall enough to lift the L322 on the sill jacking points, so I use wood planks to raise jack and a wooden spreader on the jacking cup...
For a complete rear lift, I use a 12tonne bottle jack on wooden blocks to get the lift....I then lower and reposition the bottle jack for the final lift....the articulation of the L322 is quite impressive...
For the P38 lifting on the axle the Yankee is perfect!
Lift height is more important than swl. Some of the smaller cheapies have a very limited height. A longer arm is better as there's less horizontal movement
What about something like this

No messing about with blocks of wood, so should be quicker and safer!
halfruads do a 'high lift' trolley jack it's got an extension tube to fit between the arm and the saddle lifts to a good height and has a decent size base to make it more stable
" its scratched and beaten with spray paint all over it but its huge and lifts the entire front end about a foot off the ground
Must weigh 40kg though "
you're talking about a trolley jack right ?
