I use the original jack ,that came with my car on my beetle.At first it was scary because it wouldn't give when it was spose to.But now that i oiled it up a bit.
Its a good jack.The only thing is that you have to take a block of wood with you in case you get a flat tire on the side of the road ,so it doesn't sink in sand.But you have to do that with most bottle jack's too,so no biggy.
