15 Amazing Gifts For The Gear Head In Your Life

Looking for gifts that the car lover in your life would love? Then you have come to the right place, as below you will find a wide range of gifts for car lovers, petrol heads and gear heads that they will truly appreciate. Read on to find out what they are. 

  • Car cleaning kit

Anyone who loves their car will want to take pride in it, and that means keeping it nice and clear. However, to do this properly including washing and detailing they will need the right equipment. One option is to get a ready-made kit that contains all the items they will need to give their car the best finish both inside and out. Such kits usually contain liquid specialist cleaners for various parts of a vehicle such as the tires, bodywork, and windscreen. They can also feature tools like car detailing brushes, microfiber wash gloves, polishing sponges, wire brushes, brushes to clean the air conditioning with and wipes for the windows. 

  • Car magazine subscription 

If you have someone in your life who adores cars, chances are that they will love reading about them as well. That is why a car magazine subscription is such a good gift as they will get new materials to digest through the post (or online) every month. 

If you choose this gift option be sure to pick a magazine that best meets the specific interest of the car enthusiast in your life. For example, if they have a classic car, then a magazine that covers ownership and restoration of the specific model and make of the car they have will be best. 

Alternatively, if they enjoy a specific type of vehicle like 4×4 or supercars then getting them a subscription to a magazine that is more generally around this subject and covers different makes and models is best. 

  • A video dashcam

Other drivers and road users are always a worry for those that love their cars, especially when they display behavior that can be dangerous. The good news is that with the gift of a dashcam, you can help reduce the instances of problems from other road users for the gearhead in your life. This is because dash cams record the road head clearly showing who is responsible for an accident, and deterring this type of behavior as well. Dash cams are also great at reducing insurance premiums, so make an ideal gift for the car enthusiast in your life. 

  • Private number plates

Private plates are a wonderful way that the gearhead in your life can personalize their ride, and make it truly special to them. But that isn’t the only benefit that gifting a number plate can provide, as they can also help keep a vehicle more secure, as thieves are much less likely to touch a car that is so easily identifiable. Private number plates can even be a great investment for the future because if the number turns out to be a popular one that’s in demand, the value can skyrocket! All of these make private number plates a very cool gift! 

  • Car wash vouchers

Even though they like their vehicle to be clean, some people just hate doing the washing themselves. It’s not hard to see why either when they have to head outside in the cold weather and get wet and cold themselves as they complete the job. 

Happily,  there is a great option designed specifically for people like this and it’s providing them with car wash vouchers. Some car wash firms will even come to clean a client’s car in their very own driveway, so they won’t even need to drive anyone to make sure their vehicle is spick and span. 

  • Cleaning gel for cars

For those who would rather not have anyone else touch their car, let alone clean it (and there are many in the gearhead world that are like this.) The supplies to do the cleaning themselves can make a great gift. 

In particular, cleaning gel is the latest trend in car cleaning, and it’s incredibly useful. This gel, much like the slime that kids play with, is just sticky enough to pick up small particles of dust and debris, without leaving a sticky residue. This makes it perfect for cleaning all those hard-to-reach places in the interior of a car such as a coin well, and pockets in the door. It can even be used to get the dust out of the brand insignia on a steering wheel, so the petrol head in your life is bound to love it. 

  • A trunk organizer

It’s not only our homes that need to be properly organized but our cars as well, as any gearhead will tell you. Fortunately, you can help the car enthusiast in your life stay as organized as possible by gifting them a useful trunk organizer. Trunk organizers are usually made from fabric with a rigid interior that allows for different sections. 

This means that the user can place things in their boot without the worry of them moving around while in transit. A trunk organizer will also help to keep items separate during travel which can be particularly useful when you want to carry perishables like food as well as highly scented items such as cleaning products. 

  • A car seat organizer

In addition to a trunk organizer, a car seat organizer can be a welcome gift for the vehicle lover in your life, especially if they have kids. This is because a car seat organizer is a large piece of fabric that hangs over the back of the front vehicle seats. This fabric is divided into several different pockets which can be used to store and provide easy access to a wide range of items from snacks, drinks, and wipes to games, books, and toys.

The major benefit of this type of car seat organizer is that it allows children to access items they want without having to interrupt or distract the driver. Something that makes driving less stressful and safer for all at the same time. 

  • Driving experience days

If the vehicle fanatic in your life’s current ride doesn’t quite match up to their dream car, then getting them a vouch for a driving experience day can be a particularly fun gift. There are all sorts available from supercars to 4×4 adventures and even experiences that allow participants to drive more unusual vehicles like military tanks

  • Car escape tool

A car escape tool is a very simple tool that could save someone’s life. Shaped like a small hammer with a metal head the idea behind these tools is that they can be used to easily and safely smash the glass of a vehicle window or windscreen allowing the occupants to escape in an emergency. Some of these tools also come with a seatbelt cutter which can be equally as useful in such a situation. The idea is that once gifted to the car fan in your life, they can keep it at hand in the glove box in case they ever get into a situation where they will need to use it. 

  • Fancy car air freshener

Some car devotees are particularly proud of keeping that new car smell going in their vehicle. That means another great gift is a car air freshener that helps them do this. Alternatively, you will find that many high-end brands like Yankee Candle make air fresheners specifically for cars these days, which can also make the ideal gift for anyone who adores their ride. 

  • Car vacuum

Keeping their vehicle clean inside and out is usually a high priority for anyone who loves cars. That’s what makes gifting them a vacuum especially made for their vehicle such a good idea. Car vacuums are built to be small and handheld, so they are easier to maneuver in the confined space that is a car interior. 

Additionally, when looking for a car vacuum to give as a gift make sure you choose one that is cordless. This is because most people do not have access to an electric plug on their driveway, where they will clean the interior of their car. What this means is that by giving them a cordless model, you will make the process of vacuuming their vehicle much faster and easier to complete. 

  • Electronic tracker 

The thought of their ride going missing for any reason, whether it’s losing it in a large parking lot, or it gets stolen is likely to dismay any vehicle fan. Happily, you can help them always know where their car is with an electronic tag tracker like an Apple Air tag. 

Alternatively, they are really helpful for adding to a keychain, making it impossible to lose car keys, even for the most absent-minded individual. 

  • Personalized parking sign

Last of all, a fabulous gift for the vehicle nut in your life is a personalized parking sign that they can display in their driveway or garage. You can get plenty of different options for these, such as signs that state parking is for a specific make of car only like ‘Mustang Parking only.’ You can even get them in a range of colors and sizes, so it shouldn’t be difficult to find the perfect personalized parking sign to give to the auto fan in your life.
