With Christmas fast approaching, a new nationwide survey has revealed a simple but important truth – men don’t want to receive more underwear as gifts. The poll found that over a third (38 per cent) of men say they would much prefer to receive car care products as gifts this coming festive season, instead of another pair of socks or underwear.
The survey, commissioned by Autoglym, the UK’s largest car care brand, also found that younger car owners are most likely to prefer receiving car care products that keep their four-wheeled pride and joy clean and protected. Over half (52 per cent) of 25-34-year-olds expressed a preference for car care gifts, compared to just 30 per cent who would rather opt for the traditional socks and underwear.
To ease the stress of Christmas gifting, Autoglym has created a range of gift kits at different price points, each packed with useful Santa-approved goodies. Whether it is for cleaning the interior or achieving a sleigh-worthy shine on paintwork, wheels and glass, Autoglym has a kit capable of pleasing detailing enthusiasts and casual car cleaners alike. Key gift sets available in the build up to the 2025 festive season include:
Supreme Car Care Collection (£95.99 RRP) is Autoglym’s most comprehensive gift kit and includes nine easy-to-use cleaning products and three accessories, including Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner, Super Resin Polish, Clean Wheels, Fast Glass, Interior Shampoo and a Microfibre Wash Mitt.
Luxury Bodywork & Wheels Collection (£53.99 RRP) is ideal for those wanting the essentials for keeping their vehicle in tip-top condition. The collection includes Custom Wheel Cleaner, Foaming Car Wash, Instant Tyre Dressing, Rapid Ceramic Spray, Fast Glass and a Finishing Cloth.
Lindsay Kelson, UK Marketing Manager at Autoglym, said: “Choosing Christmas gifts can be tricky, so it’s good to have inspiration for something that will really be appreciated. Our festive ‘Let it Glow’ campaign celebrates the fun of giving something different this year; gifts that are both thoughtful and useful. Our gift kits are packed with easy-to-use products, helping to keep cars clean, shiny, and protected through the winter months.”
