Your car should be your trusty stead, old 'reliable' that gets you from A to B when you need it to. Maybe it is still running perfectly, but you are still looking for a little 'je ne sais quoi.'

Whether you can't afford a new car or love your current vehicle and want it to look a little less dull and give its sparkle back, there are many reasons to give it a little spruce up.

It is time to give your four-wheeled friend the makeover it deserves, so take a look at these tips and tricks to help you pimp your ride.

 A Sparkling Exterior

A good wash and wax can work wonders for your car's appearance, especially if you haven't given it a going over in a while. You can either do this yourself by grabbing a bucket, some specialist car shampoo (essential), and a soft sponge and giving your car a thorough scrub. Once your vehicle is squeaky clean, apply a coat of wax to protect the paint and give it that glossy finish.Or, you can take it to a professional who already have everything they need while you go and get a cup of coffee.

Take a Look at the Interior

If you are bogged down with fast food wrappers, random clothes, and some crumbs in some hard-to-reach places, it is no wonder you are not feeling it when you are driving around.

Start by getting rid of rubbish and any unnecessary items that have been piling up. Only keep in your car what you need and keep that organised. That includes multiple travel mugs from various commutes!

Wipe the dashboard, clean the windows and vacuum the seats and floors to get rid of dirt, dust, crumbs, and other debris to help them look new. However, if your seats look a little worse for wear, choose some stylish seat covers to give your car a new look that you can love.

Take a Look at Your Wheels

Perhaps an overlooked aspect of the car, but another great way to spruce it up is by maintaining and customising the wheels. Why not get yourself a new set of alloy wheels or add some eye-catching hubcaps? A fresh set of rims can instantly transform the look of your car and make it stand out from the crowd. If you love what you have already, you might just need a repair to restore your rims to their former glory. Take a look at rolling-rims.co.uk for more information.

Get the Gadgets              

If you're all about comfort and convenience, there are plenty of gadgets and accessories that can enhance your driving experience. Upgrade your car's audio system with a new stereo or speakers for a high-quality listening experience whenever you go for a drive. Install a phone mount to keep your device within easy reach and use navigation apps hands-free. You could even invest in a portable vacuum cleaner and keep some microfiber clothes handy for those little touch-ups.
