Inherited 7 gearknobs and no idea what cars they’re for. Thought this place is the most likely to know… Anyone know any of them please?

Some of them look like aftermarket ones made to fit anything with a suitable gear lever.

This, some of them have a distinct whiff of Halfords. Others might be BMW.

They came to me from Germany, so some might look Halfords but don’t think they are…

Thanks for all replies so far, just curious/ think they seem to be about 90s ish onwards/ who knows! ?

So why have you inherited 7 gear knobs from Germany?

2 looks like an 00s MG gear knob.

6 looks like an 00s Porsche (probably a Boxster) gear knob.

Number 5 is from a bmw, it would be helpful to see the top of the knob of each

You may as well say it is from a Bugatti, it's definitely not from any generation of CTR.

That was my thought too, or maybe 996 model 911.

But it could be something else with a similar style - they could just as easily all be generic aftermarket knobs.

It’s missing a gear for a 996

Good point, didn't know the 996 were all 6-speed.

Having done a quick search of Boxster gearknob photos I can't see any that match the OP, similar style but different details.
