CCS Garage Equipment completes extensive vehicle lift installation for JLR West London’s dealership servicing centre
Serving thousands of customers in London and the South East, and situated along the busy A40 into the city, Jaguar Land Rover’s dealership and servicing centre in West London is an important flagship site for the brand.
Designed and developed by CCS Garage Equipment prior to its construction, the on-site, state-of-the-art servicing centre features a drive-in entrance and 28 service bays, making this one of the most extensive workshops in our portfolio. Equipped with stylish and efficient Dura workshop furniture, reliable ancillary equipment including LEV and lubrication systems, and enabling complete on site servicing with twin MOT bays, JLR West London’s workshop delivers professional servicing, maintenance and repairs to a full suite of JLR vehicle models.
CCS Garage Equipment has recently undertaken an extensive vehicle lift installation project at the JLR West London site, installing a suite of Nussbaum lifts to support the workshop’s busy operations and to equip the London dealership for the ever-growing fleet of electric vehicles on the road.
Nussbaum lifts were specified by our client for installation across its workshop. This reliable, market-leading vehicle lift technology is safe and simple to operate, built to exceptional quality standards in Germany, and will be maintained and inspected by CCS Garage Equipment’s local South East engineers in the years to come.
One of the prominent features of our vehicle lift programme for JLR West London was the installation of 2.35 SL EV Smart Lifts. Along with a raft of other features, including unique safety systems, adjustable widths and heights, and fast lifting and lowering times, these versatile fixed 2-post lifts are fitted with heavy-duty, bespoke arms to accommodate the lifting of electric vehicles and PHEVs.
With a load capacity of 3500KG, the SL EV Smart Lift is a great choice for busy workshops which are set to service, maintain and repair ever-growing numbers of electric and hybrid vehicles.
Ensuring dealerships, fleet operators, vehicle hire centres and more are equipped for the change, the adapted and extended arms of the SL EV Smart Lift by Nussbaum comfortably accommodate heavier electric vehicles and PHEVs without damaging, and allowing for ease of access by technicians to, the battery pack, chassis and other components.

4. Each lifting arm on the Nussbaum 2.35 SL EV Smart Lift features adjustable lifting pads, allowing the lift to adapt and accommodate a huge range of vehicles in a dealership’s range.
5. JLR West London’s new suite of SL EV Smart Lifts in final testing prior to commission. Robust designs with excellent lifting capacities, the Nussbaum vehicle lifts will support servicing and maintenance of even the largest vehicles in the JLR model ranges.
With a lifting capacity of 5500KG, fast lifting and lowering times and space-saving design, the Uni Lift is a new addition to the JLR West London dealership servicing department.
The model installed for our London-based client is fitted with lighting to aid inspections and works carried out underneath the vehicle, as well as wheel-free lifting through axle lifts fitted to each lifting platform.
A great lift for vehicle inspections, diagnosis, repairs and works to wheels and tyres, Nussbaum’s Uni Lift 5000 NT features low rails and short drive-on ramps, flexible installation widths, and can be installed flush with the workshop floor for both safety and ease of access to the lift. Our CCS Garage Equipment team installed the Uni Lift for JLR West London with platforms recessed into the ground for seamless vehicle access from the workshop floor.
Nussbaum’s patented technology, developed by the brand in Germany, is woven into the Uni Lift’s design, with two redundant, powerful and low-noise hydraulic circuits driving perfect synchronisation of the NT system’s 4 cylinders for exceptional, reliable lift performance on vehicles across the JLR model range.
1. The Nussbaum Uni Lift 5000 NT hydraulic scissor vehicle lift, installed by CCS Garage Equipment for JLR West London. This versatile lift is fitted flush to the floor using a ground recess, creating additional working space underneath the vehicle and allowing for smooth access to the lift by vehicles.
2. The Uni Lift model installed for JLR West London is equipped with integrated lights and wheel-free lifting plates which allow for all-round work to tyres and wheels. Shown here during testing, the wheel-free lifting plates sit neatly within the main lifting platforms, giving technicians additional space to work beneath each vehicle.
3. JLR West London’s dealership workshop is equipped throughout with leading Nussbaum vehicle lift technology, including the versatile Uni Lift 5000 which can accommodate larger vehicles in the JLR ranges, together with smaller commercial vehicles, as well as offering wheel-free lifting for all-round servicing, diagnostics, inspections and repairs.
4. The Uni Lift’s integrated lighting creates a safe and efficient working space under the vehicle for JLR West London’s workshop technicians. Reducing the need for separate lamps or torches, the workshop team can progress inspections, repairs and maintenance with less equipment and greater flexibility around the vehicle.
5. Comfortably accommodating our vehicle lift installation engineer’s van, the Uni Lift is incredibly versatile. Smooth hydraulic operation of the scissor lift safely and quickly lifts larger vehicles up to 5.5T in weight, making the servicing department more accessible to customers driving some of JLR’s larger vehicle models.
Nussbaum’s Jumbo Lift, with a lifting capacity of 3500KG, is a space-saving double scissor vehicle lift that’s used by vehicle workshops and car dealerships for the fast, reliable and safe lifting of a broad range of cars and light vehicles.
Capable of installation flush to the floor, and offering a drive-on height of just 105mm, the Jumbo Lift saves space on the workshop floor with its neat, short platform design, and is easily accessed by vehicles including low-profile and sports cars.
The Jumbo Lift is an excellent all-rounder, lifting to 2000mm with length-adjustable platforms for great versatility when carrying out tyre changes, oil changes, engine and inspection works. As with all Nussbaum products, this double scissor lift is designed and built with safety a priority. Requiring no compressed air, the lift operates through two redundant hydraulic circuits, protected by Nussbaum’s patented HyperFlow technology which balances hydraulic pressures. Together, the system is energy-efficient, easy to use and, with fewer moving parts, simpler to maintain.
1. The Nussbaum Jumbo Lift 2500 NT is installed by CCS Garage Equipment for JLR West London, recessed into the workshop floor to allow for ease of access that’s flush to the floor, saving space and creating a safe, operational working area when the vehicle lift is not in use.
2. By recessing this scissor lift, the workshop floor becomes a usable space even if the vehicle lift is not required. The service bay can be used as a working area by technicians safely, with reduced risks of trips and falls.
3. The Jumbo Lift is installed with its adjacent “Nussbaum Commander” control unit, connected to the lift by hydraulic hoses and neatly contained in metal housing.
4. Nussbaum’s space-saving, hydraulic double scissor lifts have a reduced number of moving parts, allowing for ease of operation and maintenance, and is powered by patented technology including the manufacturer’s HyperFlow hydraulic technology, requiring no compressed air for the vehicle lift to operate.
5. The Jumbo Lift double scissor vehicle lift is installed alongside a suite of Nussbaum Smart Lifts. The Jumbo Lift makes for an easy-to-use, fast and space-saving lift option for this smaller vehicle servicing bay in the workshop, making the most of the space available and maximising revenue opportunities from the dealership’s servicing centre.
