GIFT IDEAS TO RACE THE HEARTS OF CAR ENTHUSIASTS
Written by Menswear Style in Cars on the 27th September 2022
People tend to value and love gifts that they're passionate about. A car enthusiast, for example, is likely to adore and cherish gifts related to cars, especially their favourite vehicles. When giving gifts, you must consider the value they bring to the recipient, such as the problems the gifts solve and how useful they are for entertainment. Other considerations include your budget and the cost of the gifts. These things make it tricky to pick the best gift for a car enthusiast. In this article we suggest some unique gift ideas that'll be sure to race the heart of car enthusiasts.
Auto Wireless Android Display Stereo
Although many newer car models come with android stereos, some stick with the older designs. You can give that car enthusiast a change or upgrade to a new auto wireless stereo with an android screen display. The device is great for interacting with mobile devices and the internet while accessing multimedia and maps. Although the device costs less than £350 to buy and install, some car owners do not always see the need for it until they experience it. It is a thoughtful gift that improves comfort and safety while travelling.
Sessions At the Local Mechanic
Every car owner spends some amount on their car for preventive or corrective maintenance. Paying for one or more sessions at the local mechanic is a thoughtful way to express yourself through gifts. You could pay for oil changes which begin at around £95, for costlier stuff such as complete tyre changes. Work within your budget to find something interesting. If you've heard the giftee talk about a car problem, you could go ahead to arrange with your local mechanic to cover the costs.
Remote And Thumb Start
Remote and thumb starters are fantastic upgrades for cars with traditional vital starters. There are a few reasons you can give a car lover those items; they look unique and trendy but are also practical. For example, remote car starters allow anyone to start and warm up a car in winter when it is too cold to go outside and do that before driving off. As it is illegal in most states to leave a key at the start when you are not inside your car, using a remote starter will save you time and some tickets.
Amazon Echo Auto Device
Amazon's echo automotive device merges the usefulness of voice commands with the beauty and sleekness of modern technology. If your giftee loves to play music and explore directions, the Amazon Echo device brings Alexa to enrich the driving experience. The echo device has multiple microphones to pick up voice commands inside the car. The Echo device is available on Amazon for as low as £45.
Useful Car Accessories
It would help if you also considered sending personalised car accessories such as a phone holder, headrest clips, and ergonomic car seat accessories. A neck massager and backrest also work. Many car lovers spend time driving or sitting in their cars and could quickly develop chronic back or neck aches. Gifting these comfort car accessories is a thoughtful way to get them happy and safe when driving. You can get customised car accessories at local or online stores starting at £50.
Ticket To Car Expo
Car expos are grand events where car lovers go to see their dream cars live and probably make some purchases. They are also suitable for group and private exhibitions. You could consider giving your giftee a car expo ticket to a local automotive show. If your giftee is travelling abroad, you could even go the extra length to find automotive shows in their destination city and purchase tickets for them. If you prefer giving an entire family a treat, group exhibition tickets are usually sold at a discount.
Items Made from Fordite
Fordite, also called Motor Agate, is an old auto paint that is no longer used in most countries. Accumulated Fordite often hardens enough to be cut and polished into shapes. Jewellers make beautiful and creative jewellery from Fordite that car enthusiasts and jewellery lovers usually love. Fordite jewellery is available on some motor shop websites where you can customise and send it to your giftee. Although Fordite is not popular now, the jewellery is still inexpensive.
Customised Private Number Plates
Personalised number plates are becoming popular with those who can afford them. Car enthusiasts love private plates for the freedom it offers them to customise their names or favourite abbreviations. You can book a number plate private reg gift on Click4Reg or from Absolute Reg: check millions of possible number plates at the best competitive prices. This can help them show off a bit of their personality with their vehicle.
Car Vacuum
A small power vacuum is an essential tool for a car lover; with it, those small tiny spaces become free of accumulated or trapped dirt. Car vacuums are available on Amazon for as low as £30. You can also get deals at local stores. You could customise a vacuum with your giftee's name or favourite moniker. Add a pack or two of their favourite scents to complete the gift.
Vintage Culture T-Shirts
Vintage culture tees of GMC, Honda, Toyota, and many car brands will get the heart of your giftee racing with pleasure. Culture tees are excellent for communal interactions and eye-catching outfits. Go for branded culture tees of the car brand your giftee drives or any brand they love, and you'll be doing something they'll value. Culture tees are also customisable and available at popular online gift shops.
LEGO Vehicles
LEGO vehicles aren't just popular with kids; many adults have them around for unwinding and relaxing. Consider gifting a LEGO vehicle to a car enthusiast who dreams of cars. They are also excellent for kids who love cars. Find exciting LEGO designs of cars, trucks, and other vehicles that offer more challenges to assemble. You should also consider LEGO video games for those video game enthusiasts that love cars.
Multi-Tool Car Repair Kit
An automotive multi-tool repair kit is an excellent gift for car enthusiasts who love to roll up their sleeves and get dirty. The multi-tool kit provides tools for different uses, ranging from simple to complex parts. You can purchase a set on Amazon beginning from £73. A mock "mechanic certificate" adds to the fun when the giftee gets it. The gift is valuable and practical for fixing those minor car issues that gulp some money. As car maintenance is somewhat expensive, you'll save your giftee some money in the long run.
Driving Gloves and Steering Wheel Grip
Driving gloves are more familiar to racers, but many car enthusiasts love going gloves and steering wheel grips that are stylish and functional. Though they may not use them consistently, glove and grip gifts are excellent for collectors who love to have something new on the board. Go for customisable and durable gloves and steering wheel grips with beautiful designs.
Car/Driving Games and Simulators
Car driving games combine the love of gaming and cars for enthusiasts, and you can always give out dozens of high-end driving games like Xbox, PS, and even PC games. You can also share your giftee a driving simulator game complete with steering and pedals. Driving simulators provide a different gaming experience that car enthusiasts love.
