Christmas Gifts For Driving Enthusiasts
Christmas is incoming and it’s nice to imagine what some ideal gifts might be for the drivers in our lives. Christmas is the time of year when we can think about God’s greatest gift to mankind: His Son Jesus. What better way to acknowledge this by giving some great automotive gifts to our family and friends, so here are some Christmas gift ideas for the driving enthusiast in your life:
A gift voucher
A gift voucher to a local automotive trade store gives a driver access to a world of automotive retail. Repco or Supercheapauto are two big outlets with so many possibilities that will make a driver happy over the Christmas period and into the new year. You can purchase anything from sound systems, after market GPS units, reversing cameras, tools and so much more…
Seat Covers
A new set of seat covers can make the environment of a vehicle that little bit nicer. We’ve just recently put a fine set of burgundy sheepskin covers on the front seats of our car, and I can say that they have instantly made the seats more comfortable, particularly for long journeys, and have given the interior a lift in its own individuality and style.
Cabin Air Freshener
It won’t be a gift for just anyone, but I’ve seen some little yellow sunflower air freshener diffusers. These are made from an eco-friendly material and deliver a high quality fragrance for the car which is, importantly, non-toxic. The sunflower design is cute and attractive, and it simply clips onto the air vents. Having bright little sunflowers around the dash conveying their sweet aroma is a sure way to brighten up any long journey this summer.
You can also buy some more manly looking air freshener diffusers (i.e., in the shape of a pine tree or rugby ball). I’ve also just seen a cool car aromatherapy set of round essential oil jars that clip onto the vents. On the front of the diffuser is a stunning scene of a night sky full of stars.
Cup Holder Coasters
Even a set of stylish coasters for the cup holders can brighten up a car’s interior. There are many types available with auto logos (e.g., Ford, Alfa Romeo, BMW), and then many abstract designs as well.
Car Mats
One part of the car’s interior that can quickly look drab is the floor mats. A new set of rubber or carpet mats for a car can lift the interior instantly. Just make sure that the floor mat design is appropriate for the car and the driver in your life.
Car Valet Voucher
This is a very nice gift. A voucher for a professional car grooming session at a valet business nearby should be a real winner, particularly when Christmas and New Years is a remarkably busy and, sometimes, messy time of year. The car at the centre of all the attention will likely be the driver’s pride and joy, so it should be a much appreciated gift.
A racing ticket
If the driver happens to enjoy a bit of motorsport action, then a ticket to the next race meet should be an ideal Christmas gift. Better still, why don’t you buy two tickets and go along with them to make a day of it!
