I know the obvious is model cars, but can anyone suggest anything else e.g. nice book? I've googled but everything is directed at the adult market and this is a little boy who is into old cars! Like cars from Edwardian times/1920's/1930's etc.
All ideas welcome!

Are you in / near the Midlands? There are tours of the Morgan Factory in Malvern - not sure if they allow 7 year olds but you can check. Or you can buy Morgan merchandise on their website.

Also the Goodwood Revival website has lots of gift ideas. shop.goodwood.com/collections/gifts-for-children

If you are anywhere near Yeovil, a trip to the Haynes car museum?

A classic car magazine is a cheap and fun stocking filler. My 8 yo has have tractor in fro about 4 years and still lives a flick through. Go to WHSmith and knock yourself out

Poster, playing cards, old cigarette cards

You can get t shirts with any pic put on. My dsis got ds1 a classic car one last year. You can choose from loads of cars!

You may also be able to get a Lego type thing, buildable model.

Not near Midlands, or Yeovil, but nevertheless brilliant ideas! Thank you so much 😊

Beaulieu Motor Museum (New Forest, Hampshire) is a nice day out.

Child's size leather or leather look flying helmet, there are quite a few types available in a range of prices.

You certainly need one when zooming along in an open top Morgan!
