    Price: £8.99

    11. This cleaning putty will get right into the nooks and crannies of your car, lifting away dirt with minimal faff.

    Amazon / Via amazon.co.uk

    This stuff is really easy (and fun) to use – press it down onto where you want to clean, peel it away, and marvel at all the dirt and crumbs it's managed to pick up as you do so! As well as being kind to your car, it's kind to the planet as the gel it's made from is biodegradable. You can use this putty over and over, and you'll be able to tell when it's reached the end of its lifespan as the colour of the gel will go dark.

    Price: £7.99

    12. Next time you're at a drive-through, you'll be glad you bought these clip-on condiment holders. They attach to the vents of your car so you can dip your fries with ease.

    Price: £6.99 for two.
