Lost lift/jack . what is the required height to change tires

I have lost

my jack/lift and now considering getting a bottle/oil jack instead.
The question is: what is the required lifting height to be able to jack the front/rear and change the tire (should I need it on the road) ?

Wrong content on wrong section. Thought I was replying for Puma or TD5. Sorry.

Greetings lolo

I use an old LR bottle jack with the horns and bought a big rubber block to raise it off the ground. Way safer on side of road than the widow maker standard issue scissor jack supplied from new MY25 90 D350 X-Dynamic HSE in Silicon Silver and coil sprung
