For my nephew. Had planned money for driving lessons. What else do you suggest? Thanks!

budget?

Doesn’t he want driving lessons? Can’t you just give him the money you were going to give for driving lessons and he can use it for what he does want?

Budget £200. Yes, he wants driving lessons! I wanted to add some things for him to open too!

He's sporty, into cars, bikes, athletics...

in reality - he will want as much as possible towards lessons

I would just stick to the driving lessons, they aren’t cheap and sure he will want to be on the road as soon as possible

Something from his favorite team / artist official store
Personalized desk calendar with photos of him and his friends

Software that would be useful for him (like iMovie for Windows or a good photo editor etc)

I've recently bought the older teens in my life a hand luggage suitcase because they're at an age now where they're starting to go places on their own with school and clubs etc and they'll be going to uni in a year or two.
