Do you want to know what the best gifts for car lovers are? Don’t get caught out, because there are only a few hours left.

If your partner loves cars, they probably have plenty of gadgets and accessories that remind them of their passion, so we wanted to go further and look for some of the most original Valentine’s Day 2021 gifts for car lovers. Are you ready? You’ll love them all.

Jewellery and accessories handmade with Fordite

What is Fordite? It’s motor agate, and it forms from layers of automotive paint. These are shed by the machines in the manufacturing plants. Sounds like a more special gift, doesn’t it? They’re handmade: the artist shapes and polishes these “gemstones” and then sets them in gold, silver, stainless steel or copper, with the aim of creating truly unique pieces. There’s everything: bracelets, rings, pendants, cufflinks, bottle stoppers, money clips, and so on. You can buy them from Urban Relic Design. They’re an absolute beauty!

A very, very special wallet

Can you imagine carrying a little piece of your car with you every day? Well, that’s now possible thanks to Wallet Werks. With the picture I’ve included, you’ll quickly recognise my favourite car, but I hope it inspires you and helps you find the right gift for Valentine’s Day 2021.

They’re available in designs such as the upholstery of the Volkswagen Golf GTi, the Subaru STI, the Porsche, the Skoda and, of course, the BMW. The wallets are of very high quality and you can also choose one with a matching keyring. Go and take a look, I’m sure you’ll like them all.

OBD2 code reader

I’m sure you’ve more than once wished you had a diagnostic tool to hand to get to the bottom of a fault. Having an OBD2 scanner on hand will help you deal with any possible problem. The Innova CarScan Advisor 5210 can carry out the essential functions: reading, interpreting and clearing your car’s fault codes. It can also check the battery’s condition, assess the ABS system and capture what was happening in the vehicle when the error code was triggered. It has a full-colour screen that makes it easy to read.

Your favourite circuit at home

Now that we spend more time at home and can’t go out to enjoy our cars or motorbikes, we bring you a super original gift that I’m sure will take pride of place in the living room or bedroom of more than one of you. It’s the silhouette of your favourite circuit, made in wood and painted black. There are lots of possibilities: you can engrave the circuit’s name or even include your favourite photograph. I don’t know which one to order first! The prices are quite affordable, but you’ll have to choose the size. The guys at Circuitos GP will advise you so you can choose the ideal option for you.

A very special touch

How many times have you wanted a corner inspired by your favourite car brand? Well, we think we’ve hit the nail on the head. Upcycle Oil Drum Furniture will build your armchair, your sofa or your side table and armchair set exactly to your taste. A real winner!
