Your Car Mad Dad
Finding the perfect gift for your car mad dad on father’s day can be quite an ordeal. Okay, so your dad has had a few years head start to collect the stuff he really likes and you probably can’t afford to buy the car of his dreams; the model probably changes every six months or so anyway. So what’s the answer? What do you get your car mad dad for father’s day?
April 2005 -- If you really haven't a clue about what kind of car-related gifts to buy him, don’t worry because your life just got a whole lot easier.
Here are 5 gift ideas to really make your car mad dad’s day a memorable one.
1. Limited Edition Car Art Photography – Your Dad’s eyes are bound to pop wide open with a piece of Christina Cornish’ limited edition car art photography. Check out artistic shots of his four-wheeled pride and joy, or even his dream car. With prices starting around the £50.00 mark they make a sensible investment too.
2. An exceptional personalised gift for car lovers! An original fine pencil drawing - photo realistic image – by fine pencil artist John Hayes who is an Associate of the Guild of Motoring Artists AGMA. He can capture the image of your dad’s favourite car and for good measure include his mug shot as an inset portrait. This is a stunning gift for any car enthusiasts; go on really treat your old man. (around £300.00)
3. V8 Gasket Photo Frame: This larger more powerful V8 version (a V6 is also available) is strictly for lovers of fast cars and Meccano sets. These stunning picture frames feature laser cut acrylic fascias with precision etched stainless steel cylinder head gaskets. The frames
come flat packed in ultra-cool foil bags for self-assembly using socket head screws (around £35.00). Why not add that finishing touch and put some great photos of yourself in the frame. Mind you, if you owe him money, it might be best if you don’t, you’ll only remind him!
4. Gear Stick Bottle Stop: The only STOP serious car enthusiasts could ever want for. On those occasions when you need a lift somewhere, and you don’t want you dad to drink, you can get him to put a stop in his favourite tipple so that he can help you out (around £12.00).
5. F1 Surprise: If your dad’s an F1 fan then a portrait of his favourite driver may just be the perfect gift. Set in a bronze grain effect frame and black mount with white sight edges, these terrific gifts feature a photograph of top F1 drivers such as Michael Schumacher and Jenson Button. They come complete with action shots and are accompanied by a printed metal plaque featuring a side view of the F1 car and the drivers name (around £30.00).
Well there you have it kids; there are no excuses not to get your car mad dad a great gift; there are some excellent affordable gifts out there.
And Dad’s, if you’re reading this why not send a copy to your kids to help them make your day great?
