...Magic Tree CarAirFreshener
There is nothing worse than getting into a smelly car and having a bit of a old banger to drive around in I try and make sure that the interior at least looks and smells alright. I find if you eat a lot of take always in your car, which is very much what I do, then you will have a much dirtier and smellier interior than others. The best airfreshener I have found so far would the old time classic of the Magic Tree AirFreshener.
The particular AirFreshener has been around for a long time and comes in many different colours and fragrances. The most common you will find is Alpine Fresh and this gives a good clean outside in smell of trees and woodland. It is a very nice smell and is really very strong.
They cost usually about 99pence but I expect you will be paying more if you buy them from...

Advantages: Well, I did get it free. I guess that this is an advantage!!! Disadvantages: Little smell. Ineffective. Slightly pricey for what it is.
...I am not normally into gimmicks or anything car related, however we are due to shortly sell the car, and as a result I thought that I better give the thing a well needed wash before getting it valued. When in Tesco I noticed that they were doing a special offer on their own brand car products, 3 for the price of 2. I only wanted washing stuff and polish, so for my bonus item I chose the Tesco own brand airfreshener.
This particular product costs £2.99 on its own, which I personally find a little bit steep for what it is, although as a freebie as part of an offer, its better than a slap in the face with a wet fish!!! It is obviously as an own brand only available in Tesco stores, but in some of the massive modern stores can be slightly tricky to locate.
As with all own brand stuff, packaging is kept to a bare minimum, which is good...

Advantages: Cheap, and quick. Disadvantages: Only masks the smell.

These carairfresheners are the most basic form of their type, they are simply a piece of beermat cardboard, impregnated with a liquid designed to give off a masking smell, over a long period of time. Having said that, the system does work, your car will smell better with one of these. You can but the same thing marked Tesco Value for tem pence less, but this one is pretty good, so buy this one.
This type of airfreshener has been marketed for a lot of years, using different logos and pictures on the card. I have seen them being used for advertiising, and displaying pictures of scantilly clad women, and very nice too.
The device is made to be hung from your rear view mirror or similar, and the fragrance is allowed to fill the cabin, thus masking any unwanted odours. These items have been given away with cars for years...
