Magic car new car scent, one hanging from the rearview mirror, the noise of the bag annoys me so it only lasts a few weeks. The best airfreshner is them wooden balls that smell of cinnamon just thow a few round the car and they leave a nice subtle smell.

Calafornia Scents.
Halfords sell them, they come in a little tin. Usually keep one under a seat and get a good month or two out of them!

ithink the best airfreshners are the ones that come in the bag with little beads in,
chuck it under a seat and they last months,

the cardboard ones are ok for a week a so and fling it, idont like having anything hanging from the mirror,its anoying and the Mot chap fails my mots if ihave one, or if im lucky he will take it out or put it on the Advisory list,

I mind my first car I had a fluffy dice hanging from the rear view.

Surely things like sat navs are more of a distraction than a magic tree? i've seen people driving with the sat nav right in their view :shock:
