Small gifts for the motoring enthusiast

Many of us know or indeed are, motoring enthusiasts. Where we live and breathe vintage, retro or even modern fast cars. However, whether it is for yourself or someone else, it can be hard to find the perfect gift for motoring enthusiasts. Birthdays, Christmas, there is always some opportunity for gift purchases. With that in mind, here are some of the best gift ideas for the motoring enthusiasts in your life.

A private registration for their car

Maybe they absolutely love their car, or perhaps had a new registration that has since had a new release of numbers, then you may want to consider a private registration. It’s fairly easy to purchase one as you can search private number plates online. This can be an excellent gift and could even be a fantastic first year anniversary present for a marriage as the tradition is the gift of paper. Prices can vary, so it’s worth doing some research online. Plus the style of registration can be different as well so you may find the perfect one.

A phone case with their favourite car on it

We all need phone cases these days as they can protect another prized possession. However, you can now get some excellent cases from places like kk automotive art where they can have pictures of different cars on them. They can be great smaller gifts for any occasion. Perfect if you have a smaller budget but you are still hoping to show thought.

A model of their favourite car

Many enthusiasts amongst us will have a favourite car. The one that they would buy if they won the lottery or the car they just lust over watching YouTube videos or reading articles in magazines. Then you may want to consider purchasing a model of the car. Many of these are collectables. Some people even make a hobby out of it and collect them. Which makes it the perfect gift opportunity.

Dealer or motoring promotional signage

There is a trend coming that more people are liking older dealer and motoring promotional signage. Often these hold contemporary designs of older logos and can be worth a great deal of money. Many are made from metal and can work well on the wall as a decorative feature. Some signage has old straplines or even older marketing strategies. They can make excellent gifts as often they are unique.

Motoring themed homeware

There are many different items you can buy the home that will appeal to a motoring enthusiast. There are the towels and mugs you can buy, the tea sets and pictures that can be placed on the wall. The only issue you will have is finding something that will work to the taste of the home as well as what interests them.

Car posters or other stationery

Finally, who doesn’t love a bit of stationery and if people have an office space in their home that they work from, a poster on the wall could be the perfect decorative feature? Again you can get a lot of items that can match your friend or family members tastes. Vintage and classic cars through to the faster pace of something modern and slick. A poster could also be something that is retro in itself, getting it framed could add to it and make it much more pleasing in the home on the wall.

Let’s hope these gift ideas help you.
