Cars

We can't all have lovely new motors that shimmer in the light. Some of us have cars that have seen more miles than Air Miles Andy.

As much as we love our old banger, it's pretty annoying when you get in the car early in the morning and the windows are steamed up like you've just got lucky. So rather than sitting there for ages waiting for it to clear, get yourself a Clear To Go Car Humidifier. You'll have a clear windscreen as it eliminates condensation tout suite.

Simply pop...

We think the Loetad digital tyre inflater is a good bit of kit, but if you need an inflator on the go, or just can't be doing with extreme tasks such as plugging one in, consider the Beaudens cordless inflator.

It comes with 5 nozzles so can be used on cars, motorbikes, cycles, balloons, rubber rings, footballs and the like. It'll shut off automatically when it reaches a pre set pressure but note that from flat it will take longer than a plug in. For example, a bike tyre...

We are all perfect drivers right? Of course we are. But on the odd occasion, at no fault of our own, our cars get a dent. We now must follow a strict three step process;

1. Blame the wife. Even if she doesn't drive. It's just the way of things.
2. Go to a local body repair specialist. Get quoted ridiculous amount by a bloke rubbing his chin and saying it's worse than it looks.
3. Consider buying a Dent Pull kit and sorting it yourself.

You may not have considered step 3 before, but this...

There are lots of great features with this dash cam, without the need to clutter up your windscreen with another stand alone product.

DUAL CAM RECORDING - Front camera with 170° wide angle plus a waterproof 120° rear-view camera. Includes auto switch to the back-up camera image view with parking line indicators.
7" TOUCH SCREEN with night vision. Using a 2.5D IPS touch screen, it is much easier to use the multi-function menu. The enhanced night vision camera ensures really crisp, no-delay rear viewing whether it is day, night, rain...

Do you have stuff in your car, important man stuff, but it's all over the place? The boot, the back seat, the dashboard... all become loaded with our very needy bits and bobs. Time to get organised chaps, with a Drive Auto car organiser;

• It's sturdy. Unlike other options we like this as it has 13 base plates making it pretty robust, ensuring it doesn't go all flimsy and cave in.
• The optional strap helps secure it by attaching around the rear seats, to boot hooks of you have the or...

Now this is smart. A dash cam that produces high quality video both externally and internally. So effectively you can record what's going on behind you as well as in front, but you have the flexibility to turn that function off if you don't want to film yourself. That said, its a great function if you get one up the rear as it were. Other key points;

• It's not too big and can sit snugly behind your rear view mirror.
• It works on a looping system so you don't have to...

If your dog prefers to be with you in the car rather than stashed away in the boot, you'll probably want to have a good quality cover to stop your seats being scratched/muddied. This is the one we think fits the bill;

• Made from heavy duty material from 4 layers of fabric, its waterproof, but comfortable with a quilted top layer.
• Non slip rubber to help keep it in place.
• A side flap to help him get in/out.
• Easy peasy to install - quick release clips and reinforced headrest straps. Easy peasy lemon...

If you are in a car and you have an emergency - pretty much any emergency you can think of, this kit will have it covered. It won't help you deliver a baby, but it'll help with most other annoying events.

It's a bag full of breakdown goodies - including tools, jump cables, warning triangle, pressure gauge, torch, rope, first aid kit, tyre inflator and much more. Doesn't include warm towels, or batteries for the torch  - so remember to buy some (batteries, not warm towels.)

Pop it in the boot,...

Another of those travel essentials that we often forget to have in the car, that you know you really should. A decent car pump. Why did we choose this one to tell you about?

• Easy to use - simply plug into your 12v socket (ciggie lighter) and attach the valve end to your tired looking tyre.

You're driving along merrily, whistling to your favourite ABBA number when pop! You realise something's not quite right and you're all over the road. You pull over onto the hard shoulder (let's hope you're not on a 'smart' motorway) and gingerly get out of your car as half a dozen Eddie Stobarts whizz past you making you feel like you are in a wind tunnel. Do you;

A. Call a breakdown service - and wait around for however long for them to turn up. (Remember the Eddies?)

B. Change the tyre...
