Best Valentine's Day Gifts for Car Lovers 2025

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, you might be wondering what gifts you can buy for your loved one.

Perhaps your partner is a petrolhead, who would love nothing more than a car related gift when February 14^th arrives.

If you are struggling for car gift ideas to give to your car loving companion, we’ve got you covered, as we are going to be exploring some of our top picks for gifts to give your partner this Valentine’s Day.

Car Driving Experience

The most exhilarating gift you can buy a car enthusiast is what we start things off with, that being a performance car driving experience.

Performance vehicles are the peak of many motoring connoisseurs’ interests. So, when the chance to drive a Ferrari, Lamborghini, or a Ford Mustang really fast around a track comes along, it can make for an unforgettable moment for numerous petrolheads.

Given that a driving experience is incredibly unique, we have this gift option right up there amongst our top picks.

If you are located in Scotland, our good friends at Knockhill have many of these experiences available to book, offering supercar and rally car packages at a good price.

Located in the South of England? Goodwood also offer a great variety of performance vehicle driving experiences.

These locations are just two of many across the whole of the UK (or wherever you are reading this from), as there has been a real spike in popularity for these day outs.

Prices for these typically range from anywhere between £40 to £500, depending on the venue and the vehicles that are being offered at the location of choice.

Car Lego Set

As we have recently celebrated International Lego Day, it's only fitting to include a Lego set on this list of car related gifts.

Lego are officially the world’s largest tyre manufacturers, manufacturing over 400 million tyres per year. While they may not be producing the same tyres that tyre brands such as Michelin or  Continental manufacture, their tyre production trumps leading tyre manufacturers which highlights how much focus is put towards vehicle Lego sets.

The beauty of Lego sets as a gift is that it targets all age demographics, both old and young.

Many car brands have their models displayed through Lego sets that is available to purchase and build yourself.

Is your loved one an SUV/4x4 enthusiast? Then it may be worth considering the popular Land Rover Defender Lego set.

Or maybe performance vehicles are a passion for them, which makes the Ford GT Lego set a fantastic option when considering Lego set gifts.

Depending on the type of car Lego set you are looking for, prices will typically vary anywhere from £10 to £390. Prices will be determined on how large the set is, the car(s) included in the set, and if the Lego set is targeted towards younger/older children or adults.

Car Accessories

Now for a more simple, yet just as thoughtful gift/set of gifts, that being car accessories.

Some of the best gifts are the convenient ones that you may need or want to have on a day-to-day basis, with accessories for a car falling right into that bracket.

Whether it be a novelty air freshener, or a practical ice scraper to prepare your loved one for driving in snow, you can’t go wrong with getting car lovers these sort of gifts.

You can even turn these car accessory themed items into a gift set, with brands such as ‘I Love My Car!’ offering great car accessory gift boxes that include car objects such as car glass wipes, air fresheners, and even chewing gum to have during your journeys.

Prices are subjective per accessory, however, the aforementioned gift box from ‘I Love My Car!’ is priced on Amazon for £24.50.

Car Related Console Games

If your loved one is a gamer, you can’t go wrong with a car relevant game as a gift this Valentine’s Day.

With the gaming industry evolving over the years, video games have benefitted in both choice and quality of games.

For football lovers – there is EAFC/FIFA, for basketball lovers – there is NBA 2K, but for car lovers, there is two console games that stand out the most – Forza Motorsport (Xbox), and Gran Turismo (Playstation).

If your other half has an Xbox, Forza Motorsport is the most popular car gaming franchise around for that console. For the latest Forza game, Forza Motorsport 8 (released October 2023), RRP is currently around £69.99 (Xbox Series X).

If your partner is a PlayStation player, Gran Turismo games are the console’s leading game franchise. RRP for the latest Gran Turismo game (released March 2022), Gran Turismo 7, is also around £69.99 (PlayStation 5).

Of course, there are other games available, with the two previously mentioned just being flagship games for the Xbox and PlayStation respectively.

Tyres

Last but not least, if your partner is seeking new tyres, you can order them here at Blackcircles.com.

This time of year, a popular choice of tyres are all-season tyres, with leading all-season tyre models such as the Michelin CrossClimate 2 or the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 being great options.

As we advise to have different seasonal tyre options available, summer tyres and/or winter tyres are equally as great to have in hand during their respective seasons.

Tyre prices will vary dependent on tyre sizes and models.

Even if you don't want to buy a bunch of tyres as a gift (understandably so), you now know where to purchase them for when your tyres eventually need replaced!
