Although I have two sets of 'pin' type axle stands here at home, we use ratchet type stands at work. In Particular, we have a set that extend to about three feet high, which we use to support tractors especially when we have to split them.
Never had a failure with either type. Pin type stands tend to be less expensive but I think the one is equally as good as the other.
Besides, even the heaviest Austin Seven is lighter than the rated load of one axle stand of either variety. Just make sure that they are sitting square to the floor and give the car a shake to make sure it is firmly supported before venturing underneath.
