I use bricks and I'm no pikey.

I know I'm not a pikey because I don't steal, I play croquet on the lawn and have pimms with the station commander and the PMC, whato chap.

Edit: Infact, I have permanantly borrowed some aircraft chocks for when I had my chevy  :lipsrsealed:

80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

Look who's talking.  :rolleyes:

Was a mere joke.

I don't use wood or bricks personally, but I'm not a DIY mechanic.

I use a piece of wood I made with steps to get my car to a level I can get a jack under and that is all.

Oh right - non-'DIY' mechanics don't use anything but a jack.  :grin:

As before - it's like an auto-FAIL mechanism.  :grin:

You are genuinely a complete moron.

Can't accept a little joke.  :cry:

Actually, I use a variety of tools. I'm proud of my standard of work, I've seen the after effects of yours.  :lipsrsealed:

does it really matter what you use? I thought the idea was to stop a car rolling off (when properly lifted and on axle stands)

I rob my driveway when I chock mine (but that's more down to my home d.i.y skills!)
