In preparation for fathers day, we have picked out our top five gift ideas that we guarantee will have you in the good books for the foreseeable future. Between accessories, car care and tools, we have a wide variety of products that will make life easy for you when it comes to picking out the perfect gift for your dad. We have some amazing offers running across the site especially for Father’s Day, so make sure you get your orders in before its too late!
Breathalyser:
Having a breathalyser in your car can really help prevent the possibility of you receiving 3 penalties points, due to being over the legal limit. With the level of alcohol allowed in your system at 0.05% the chances of you being slightly over the limit is high, especially the morning after. There have been countless incidents where drivers have waited until the following morning to drive, to find out they are still over the legal limit. These products should be used as an indicator of the level of alcohol in your system, helping you make the decision on whether you should drive or not. We have several options available but we think our Premium Breathalyser is the best of the lot. At €29.99 it’s a great investment that promotes responsible driving along with ensuring you avoid any fines and penalty points.
Dash Camera:
Continuing on with the theme of safety, dash cameras are a brilliant present that have become ever more popular in cars month after month. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail! Having a dash cam has endless benefits whether its to prove your innocence or to protect yourself against fraudulent insurance claims, in this day and age its a no brainer to own one! We stock a wide range of dash cams including NextBase, Thinkware and Blackvue. The Blackvue DR590 is one of our many high end, high performance dash cams. This model has a 1080p camera with a lens capable of a 139 degree angle in front of the vehicle. This dam cam shoots footage at a frame rate of 60fps, which is really impressive. If that wasn’t enough the cameras night vision mode provides bright footage so if there ever is an accident no matter what time of day it occurs, your camera will be able to capture it. The Blackvue Dash Cam DR590 also comes in a dual bundle. Included in the bundle is a second camera which is used to capture footage out the rear view wind. Protecting you from all angles!
Energizer Drill:
Our Energizer Drill is a force to be reckoned with, all thanks to its 18V 2Ah battery pack. A powerful drill that does not decrease in performance over time makes it the perfect drill for any DIY fanatic looking to add quality products to their tool kit. If your dad fancies himself as a bit of a handyman or just enjoys doing work on his car, the Energizer Drill is the perfect gift for him. Not only do you get the drill and charger but it also included is a spare battery meaning the user can continue working on the job at hand without having to wait for the battery to charge. We have slashed the price by nearly 50% down to €99.99, this will be a present your father will remember. (Pro Tip: head to IKEA the day before and buy all the flat pack items you need. After you give him his gift he will be mad to try it out, saving you the hassle of making them up yourself!)
Car Care:
Car cleaning products are a brilliant gift that will be appreciated. It is one of those items that you know will be used at one point or another. We stock a selection of premium brands such as Autoglym and Soft99 with many more brands available we are the go-to when it comes to car care. The most comprehensive kit available is the Autoglym Perfect Bodywork, Wheels and Interior kit. This bundle boasts a selection of premium interior, exterior and wheel cleaning products which will leave your car looking brand new. There is a total of 12 Autoglym products in the bundle so at €79.99 its a bit of a bargain. Take for example the Hi-Tech Microfibre Drying Towel, if you had to buy that on its own it would set you back €12.99 so you really are getting a great deal by buying the bundle.
