Opinions needed about these homemade car ramps (pictures)

In addition to all the prior concerns with the ramp, I don't like how the back tires are unable to rest on a flat surface. Appears it would need to be longer.

I would struggle to get under that car on those. But even with "corporate produced ramps" I plan my escape and, of planning to do more than break the oil plug loose, often throw a floor jack or jack stands in places in case the plastic ramps I have decide to crumble.
 
Look at bottom of the ramp. Leaning off the ground!

Yikes. you guys are scaring the sugar honey iced tea out of me.....

EDIT: Someone already said it before me. That's okay though, can never be said enough how dangerous that is.
That was a placement issue, not a product defect. Solid wood ramps are way more sturdy than that steel thing and those plastic types. This better for ya,

I much prefer my Rino ramps.

If I'm understanding what the OP is looking for, neither of these measure up. He wants to raise both the front and the rear of the car, so it will be close to level when raised.

I totally get it. This is one of the reasons I don't use ramps. I want a car to be level when working on it.

@Saikou, have you considered something like QuickJack? Is there something like these available in Spain? Perhaps it isn't in your budget, but something like this should do what you are looking for.
 
Look up Kwik-Lift. I have one and am pretty happy with it. The ramps are heavy but they dismantle into two segments when you want to store it.
 
Obligatory 1000 Ways to Die TV show reference. You know if you have to ask, you probably already have doubts. If you have doubts, you probably should not be getting under the vehicle like that.
 
Just like others mention the legs need some bracing. And it looks so steep that the rocker panels would be scratched across that peak point coming up the ramp. Also doesn't look real stable, like if the car had a decent side push, I'd want them longer and wider, with some sort of support for the side push deal.
