Gearbox Gifts - motoring gifts for Christmas, birthdays and thank you

Do you know someone who loves cars but also has a little trouble getting up in the morning? Do they sleep so well, that they're often known to be 'Flat Out' fast asleep? If so, then we have the alarm clock to wake them! Once the alarm sounds, the headlights turn on automatically and you instantly hear the V12 engine fire up - just as in the golden era of sports car racing, when drivers only started their engines when the flag dropped, thereby starting the race. You then hear the car acclerating away, change gear and start running absolutely 'Flat Out'!! Super-sized (23cm wide by 31cm tall) and super sound, it makes a really fun birthday or Christmas gift!

Every cloud has a silver lining, and so does our umbrella! It just might be raining at your favorite classic car event, so have we made a classic car umbrella to take with you. Finished in classic black with no branding (other than a small label on the tie strap) it can be used for all occasions. It's lightweight and nice to hold, with the trandtional 4-speed gear shift handle. A great car gift for dad!

With the Desk Drive® 4GB Memory Key, you can store huge amounts of data. Just think: hundreds of photos of your classic car, part of its history file, or photos from a classic car event which you can then share with your friends. Made in a classic key style so it blends in nicely with the keys to your classic car, it has a universal Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface and can be used with both PC and Macs. Its Gold SIP connector is both water and scratch-resistant, making it one of the most durable and thinnest USB keys on the market. Protective edges on the connectors ensure that you will always insert the Desk Drive Key properly, keeping it usable and safe. Packed in gift tin (ideal after-use for storing fueses etc) with a high quality key ring, it makes an ideal computer gift for men - or just a nice gift for yourself!

Just when you need to plug yet another item into your computer, you run out of USB ports to plug into! The ideal solution is to keep your printer and scanner (energy hungry items) plugged into your computer. Then use your Desk Drive® Vintage Racer USB hub for occasional items (less energy hungry) such as your phone, memory stick, or iPod. Simply lift the bonnet and plug them into the Vintage Racer. Its much more accessable and looks great parked on your desk. Bored? Then push the Vintage Racer backwards, let go and watch it accelerate away! A great car gift for men who love computer gadgets. Features include 4 USB ports (1 rear and 3 under the bonnet) rolling wheels and headlights. Plug and play.

Drive around your home or office desk with Desk Drive® car computer mouse and race to the finish line with its own chequered flag mouse mat. With its classic sports car shape, and bright red paint, it not only looks good but is comfortable to hold and easy to use, with left and right click and scrolling wheel functions. It comes packed with your very own chequered flag mouse mat! A great car gift or stocking filler. Features USB 2.0 wired connection. 800dpi printed mat and supports WIN 98/ME/2000/XP/VISTA.

For the car enthusiast who also loves a decent bottle of wine (can there be such a thing?). But not too much, as there needs to be some wine left so you can use this nicely weighted bottle stopper to keep the remainder fresh! A great novelty gift for men and women who loves cars. Brightly polished metal with a distinctive gearknob design top, a very stylish accessory for all quaffers! Delivered in a black presentation box with a clear lid.

Need a fast cup of coffee? Fancy a quick cup of tea? Then we have the mug for you!! When you pick up the mug, the engine starts, the headlights automatically turn themselves on, and you then hear the car acclerating away at racing speed! A great novelty car gift. And yes, it does hold hot liquid ! And the car even looks like a Ferrari..
