Default anyone on here with there own lift?

My father is in the process of building a personal "monster garage" and is asking me to do the research on what kind of lift to get. He is looking for something that is moveable, with low clearance, and that can lift all of our cars. I own the S4, he has a C5 corvette and my mother has a Yukon(Tahoe). I know this isn't S4 related but I was wondering if anyone could help me out. ATM I am thinking a four post lift would be the best option but I have no idea what to look in terms of quality, and compatability, etc.

How "moveable"?? Instantly or unbolted and then moved...makes a big difference.

Default A buddy of mine has one like this . . . .

Not sure what brand his is, but its a sissor lift style like this. It's easily movable, and works well.

On a side note, that lift even has an Audi on it . . .

Default I have a hunter four post... but forget moveable ...

Honestly, I wouldn't feel safe working under a lift that isn't permanently fixed.
