It slips straight over the gear knob and suddenly your car has a very small passenger with a great deal of attitude. Thereâs no practical justification for it whatsoever, and thatâs precisely why it works.
Youâll notice people spot it about four seconds after they get in. Theyâll laugh, theyâll ask where you got it, and then theyâll want one for their own car.
Most gag gifts get one laugh at the unwrapping and then disappear into a drawer. This one lives in the car, which means it keeps working on every new passenger who climbs in for as long as itâs there.
It takes about five seconds to fit and it suits any standard gear stick, so thereâs no fiddling or measuring involved. Put it on and forget about it until somebody notices.
Itâs also worth saying it does no harm to the car. It slips on and off without adhesive, clips or anything that marks the knob, so a lease car or a shared vehicle is no barrier. If it ever stops being funny, it comes straight off.
At this price itâs an ideal stocking filler, Kris Kringle pick or the small extra you throw in alongside something bigger. Itâs the sort of thing nobody would ever buy themselves but everybody enjoys receiving.
Itâs made for dads, partners, P-platers and the mate whoâs forever tinkering with their ride. If the person youâre buying for enjoys daft humour, this lands squarely in the sweet spot.
