Top Ten Automotive Gift Ideas for Your Car Lover
Know someone who's crazy for cars or hears the call of the open road? Here are some great automotive gifts in a range of prices ($100 or less).
1.You don’t have to be as rich or crazy as the parents on MTV’s Super Sweet Sixteen, who buy their spoiled teenagers BMWs and Land Rovers, to treat your car lover to a luxury car. Hertz rents Jaguars, Infinitis and Audis for around $100 a day. This doesn’t include a few small fees but does include unlimited mileage. It’s a fun treat for someone who would never be able to afford a luxury vehicle.
2.Car enthusiasts love a nice shiny vehicle. There are many car cleaning kits available or you can put together your own. Armor All carries gift packs which are carried at Target, Wal-Mart, Kmart, Family Dollar, and Sears. The packs include tire protectant, glass wipes, car wash gel, and original protectant. Target has the gift pack on sale for $19 on Black Friday.
You can also put together your own with products from dollar and discount stores.
Buy a $1 plastic bucket and fill with some inexpensive car wash liquid, a chamois, wax, glass cleaner, and all-purpose protectant spray or wipes.
3.Every car owner needs to get their oil change. So why not buy the driver on your list a certificate for an oil, lube and filter service? For a full service change that includes a multi-point inspection, vacuum, and filling of fluids, you’re probably looking at around $40. However, for a basic oil and lube, you can easily find service outlets that charge $20 or less.
4.Nothing makes a car look better than a car wash and in the northern states snow and rust-causing salt is on its way. While many auto enthusiasts enjoy washing their own vehicle, sometimes that’s not an option especially mid-winter. There’s a wide range of prices and services available. A basic car wash and interior vacuum runs around 10 or 12 dollars. A central Ohio business known as Spot Free Car Wash sells Christmas packages including 12 ULTIMATE washes (including front and rear high-pressure wash, underbody & rocker spray, clear coat hot wax, Triple Foam Conditioner, SpotFree Rinse) for $79.
