Car Broken Down

Today we have a choice of car breakdown rescue services, but in the past we had the AA (Automobile Association) or RAC (Royal Automobile Club).

New to our website this week is 'What seems to be the trouble?' a familiar phrase to those who have had to call out a breakdown service. This card features the Morris 8 E car which has been stopped enroute in the mountains and has had to call out an AA patrolman.

The bleakness of the mountains seems to echo the aloneness we all feel when our car has let us down.

Amusing Greeting Cards

Added to our range of Linda Birkinshaw greeting cards today is the Head Gardener,  a great card for your dad, grandad or a keen gardener, The man in the deckchair may be asleep, but there is wine in those demijohns in the shed. Has he sampled the wine?

Ideal for Father's Day as this card is blank inside. Matching coaster available too.

Narrowboat moneybox

An exciting new addition to our moneybox range is this stunning narrowboat savings bank available in either blue or green.

It's reminiscent of the narrowboats that cruise the canals in the UK, these days for pleasure, but used in the past as homes and a means of transportation.

A good way to save for your own holiday on the water.

New Mini Mug

We've just added some lovely new china mug and coaster sets to our site. Our favourite has to be the burnt orange Mini mug, with it's matching coaster.

I used to have a Mini in this colour when my children were small. Definately, not a family car, but great fun to drive. Would make a lovely Father's day present or just a gift for someone who loves the older style Mini.

May is Kevin Walsh month at The Motoring Gift Company

May is Kevin Walsh month at The Motoring Gift Company.

To celebrate the work of our favourite transport artist we have reduced all Kevin Walsh cards to £1.35, saving you 20p each over the previous price. His work features classic vehicles of all types, a few of which are featured below.


Above is Aero Club featuring a Tiger Moth biplane and MG motor car

Beginners Luck, a great card with an Austin Chummy and a man and his daughter enjoying an afternoon by the river. Would make a great Father's Day card.

All of our cards can be purchased with a mount, so you can frame them to hang on your wall.
