xmas present for step dad

[csv rulz]

trying to come up with an xmas prezzie for my stepdad, he isnt really into holdens- he drives a mini cooper S checkmate JCW, ive done the whole mini key ring, clothes etc in the past. Dont want to spend much more than $50.00
Any ideas????

[COSMOS]

how old is he?
what does he like besides the car?

Does it need to be Mini related or can it be anything for that money?

doesnt have to be mini related.

He is 55, an electrical technician, plays table tennis.
I was going to get him the PINK in concert DVD as he really likes PINK (for some reason) but someone else beat me to it.

I was just reading through that membership benefits page - noticed a thing on there called 'MiniMag' (monthly publication). I think SteveK had one of them that I noticed at the Knox Cruise Night lastnight... Looked like a pretty good read.

Alcohol...

his not a huge alchol drinker and doesnt drink beer. He does drink UZO though - maybe a bottle of that might do.

I know you said it doesn't have to be MINI related, but what about:

1) MINI cufflinks
2) nice MINI polo
3) a MINI pen set (roller ball and fountain pen)

(yes, I am a little MINI obsessed too)

Top Gear Box set would be sweet as mentioned above.

i think so far i have got him the key ring, a hoody, a t shirt, a mini calculator, MINI PARKING ONLY - ALL OTHERS WILL BE TOWED sign. Pen and cufflinks sound good any tips on where i get them
Iv got everything else from Doncaster MINI but i live 4hrs away from there.
