It's a Strongman Tamar, see:

Costs £1400 + VAT, I collected mine from their base in Warwickshire. It's a heavy bit of kit though, you'll need a decent trailer.

Video of assembly and operation is here:

You'll also need a compressor to release the safety catches, but it doesn't need to be very big, you only need 60psi.

It's a smidgeon over 160mm high, so to ensure clearance for the Morgan I have a couple of scaffold planks either side to ensure I don't snag on anything. The lift base is 1m wide and just fits between the tyres of my 4/4, and you don't need to use the movable arms, just put the rubber blocks on the main lift rails. It's so quick and easy to use that I confess I even pick the car up to check the tyre pressures smile
