gifts for car lovers
If your husband or brother always has their heads stuck under the hood of a car or your mother obsesses over her new BMW, then you have an auto fanatic on your gift-giving list this holiday season. 
 
Unfortunately, buying a gift for an auto enthusiast can be difficult. Unless, of course, you give the gift of a year’s worth of oil changes at Groovy Automotive, your auto repair service in Austin. Actually, that is a pretty good idea.
 
But you might also want to get them something else as it’s pretty difficult wrapping up an oil change. Here are a few ideas.
 

Dash Camera

 
Car accidents are a reality and any auto enthusiast can be involved in one. Aside from injuries, getting your automobile fixed after a fender bender can be a nightmare. But if the accident was captured on a dash camera, you can go to the insurance company with confidence. This is a must-have gift for anybody who drives.
 

Leather Driving Gloves

 
Leather driving gloves, proper leather driving gloves that is, make a great gift for the car enthusiast in your family. Driving gloves keep your hands warm, that’s a given, but they also keep dirt and oil that can buildup off your steering wheel. 
 
 

 A Bucket of Car Care Products

 
The Auto Care Crate by Man Crates is just what any auto enthusiast needs this holiday season. What they will get is a wooden crate, that needs to be opened with a crowbar, filled with all of the car cleaning goodies anyone could ever want including microfiber towels, wash mitt, car wash nozzle, foam auto wash and a collapsible bucket.
 

Smartphone Dash Mount

 
Nobody wants to get a ticket for using their smartphone while driving. So a great gift for an auto enthusiast is a smartphone dash mount. Now your smartphone’s map app can be easily engaged plus your phone is kept safe and secure. 
 

Key Finder

 
Going for a drive in their beloved vehicle will put a smile on any auto enthusiasts face. Losing their keys can put a damper on their day, big time. A key finder is just what they need to save the day. THere are a number of different types of key finders you can choose and many utilize Bluetooth and can track your keys using GPS. 
 

Speedometer Cufflinks

 
Yes, these really do exist and yes, they are super cool. 
 

Tool Kit

 
Many auto lovers enjoy tinkering around under the hood. And while they likely take their cars into Groovy Automotive for any major repairs that need to be made, they try to fix the small problems themselves. In order to do this, they need a decent set of tools. Auto mechanics school would help as well. 
 

Bluetooth Adapter for Cassette Radios

 
Auto lovers are very picky about their classic cars and often keep the original stereo equipment in them. This means that they have to listen to the radio or cassette tapes when they drive. But that changes when you give them a Bluetooth adapter for Christmas. 
 
With a Bluetooth adapter, car owners can keep their original stereos and still enjoy the benefits of Bluetooth capable radio. 
 

Navigation System

 
Sure, you can get an app for your phone that will guide you where you need to go, but having a permanent GPS in your car is the preference for auto enthusiasts. Their navigation system will also help them find the best restaurants, lodging and the cheapest gas stations in any given location.   
 
While shopping for the auto lover in your life, don’t forget the needs of your own car. If it is time for an oil change or auto repair, give Groovy Automotive a call.
