    Title says it all. I've had 30 quid of vouchers sitting around for too long. I've already got their incredibly overpriced spare bulb kit. My car is a BMW 320 coupe. And I don't need any air freshners or floor mats :D

    Or will I just keep it for a rainy day?

    another vote for using it to bring Meguiars stuff down to a reasonable price - decent paintwork conditioner and some wash mitts.

    Unless you already have that, obviously...

    Oil - its going to be needed eventually.
    Or an overpriced ipod holder (if you need one). All else fails +1 for the Meguiars stuff

    I would get a bottle of Zymol car wash, definitely the best car wash available.

    Then I'd also get a bottle of that Autoglym Aqua Wax spray. If you are not into all the effort involved in polishing your car then this is the wax for you. You do the whole car in less than 20 mins & it will look a whole lot better than if it is was just washed. You can apply just after washing. The set normally includes two cloths.
    OK it's not going yo provide long term protection, not the best polish but it is better than applying nothing.

    Above would cost €30.

    Take a look on here for ideas, http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/products/
    The reviews are pretty good. If you don't already have one, get yourself a good quality rechargeable torch for your car and maybe a pair of cheap leather gloves.

    I got a fast puncture in a major storm during the year and I nearly died from the cold trying to change a tyre in gale force driving rain with no gloves and a ****e lamp.
