Product picks advent calendar

Over the past 12 months, car lovers have been introduced to some great products, and our consumer writer Jamie Fretwell has been the man in charge of putting them to the test for Auto Express.

We’ve covered everything from cleaners and tools to gadgets and the latest electronic kit. We’ve braved sub-zero temperatures inside the Arctic circle for a winter tyre test, driven thousands of miles with sat-navs stuck to our windscreens, and spent weeks in the workshop comparing waxes, wrenches and wheel cleaners. 

But if you missed any of them, we’ve a treat for you. This year, we’ve made you a unique advent calendar, and for the next 24 days, you’ll be able to log on to this page to find out our picks of the best products from the last year. 

We’ll be sure to include something for everyone, and if you see something you like, it’s not too late to add it to your Christmas list.
