Hello

Whilst browsing the Audi genuine gifts website I noticed what can only be described as a treasure trove of tat; from baby bottles to deckchairs!

This got me thinking, what other automotive manufacturers have gifts and what kind of weird stuff do they put their brand on?

Come on let's see what is out there ...

Ford will will sell you a Bronco Barbecue Scraper
It’s the perfect addition to your collection and a trendy eye-catching piece according to the blurb.

I presume this tat is given away in dealerships to ‘close the deal’.. but who actually wants this stuff!
Just give me another £10.95 discount pls hehe

Not bizarre at all when you consider they have been making pepper grinders longer than they have been making cars. Maybe it should be bizarre that they will sell you a car

On Saturday the Dave Freeview TV channel repeated that episode of Top Gear 'What will Peugeot make next?' that end with cows in a field with the Peugeot Lion emblem on their sides.

I have to admit to having a Jaguar branded one in the back of my car.

It was a gift, but it is really useful, and it means I don't have to have a coat hanger kicking around in the car when I don't have a suit jacket or blazer with me.

Resolute tat, though biggrin

"The coat hanger – for crease-free clothes when you're on the move."

Can you get a Corby trouser press for the other side? Then you can really arrive crease free from head to toe.

I always thought Rolls Royce should make drinks coasters, simply so they could make call them Roller Coasters.

But I had that idea 30+ years ago. Nobody calls them Rollers any more, so it's only funny to me.

I did get the full set of kettle, coffee machine, percolator, blender, toaster etc from Porsche when Siemens first started making those. That confused a lot of visitors for a while until they became ubiquitous.
