V8V Center Jacking Points
Discussion
I'd like to get the wheels off my V8VR to do some "detailing" and a few minor preventative bits
Not to keen on doing one at a time
I was wondering if there is a front and rear central jacking point?
On my last car there was a plate on the bottom of the diff and on the front subframe to jack from.

Mooched and checked in the older version wrokshop manual
There is a cross beam on the front sub frame that can be used as a jacking point. Going to need two jacks to get to it though and the sie points are quite small and uncomfortable close the "plastic" sill covers
Can't see anything on the rear and there is nothing in the workshop or owners manual
I used to use a purpose designed flat spot on the rear diff of my last car, nothing like that in the V8V though.
Any ideas?

I jacked up my vantage to remove the wheels for cleaning. After I dropped it down I felt uder the sill to check for damage. I almost shat myself when I felt a large hole under sill!!! Thankfully I found one on the other side......There is a cross beam on the front sub frame that can be used as a jacking point.

- Spotted those - drainage holes from the top of the wing/windscreen I presume
