Christmas is just around the corner, and let’s face it, petrolheads are not easy folk to buy for. So to help you find something memorable for the car guy or girl in your life, we’ve plucked ten brilliant potential presents from the Car Throttle Shop for your viewing pleasure. And if you fancy grabbing something for yourself while we’re at it, we won’t judge…

Pretty Much A Racing Driver Hoodie

We all have that one friend who thinks highly of their driving. Now, there’s a hoodie just for them, or if you think they’d prefer, a T-shirt.

OBD II head-up display

Optioning a head-up display on a brand new car can cost hundreds or even thousands. Happily, aftermarket options like this brilliant plug and play OBD II-compatible HUD is considerably less. It can display speed, RPM, water temperature and more. The only downside here is your petrolhead friend or family member may end up disappearing onto those quiet Christmas Day roads to try out his or her new gadget…

Mega Mounts Magnetic Phone Mount

Using a powerful magnet, this handy product from Mega Mounts will have your phone securely fixed in place in mere seconds. And yes, we’ve tested these, and confirm it’s more than up to the task of keeping hold of your phone during a hard launch!

OBD II Code Scan Tool and Multi-Gauge

Going a step further than the OBD II HUD we looked at earlier, this UltraGauge Scan Tool is able to display 78 different standardised measurements like boost pressure, intake air temperature and throttle position. If the petrolhead you’re buying for has a track car, they’ll love this.

Turbo heart T-shirt

Yeah, most years there’s actually some pretty cool stuff. I’m generally against the “CT bad” rhetoric, but this is just dumb.

Unless you place an order a year and a half ago and when you finally get it it’s only half your order and when you send a message on the shop a week ago they haven’t even read it yet
