For some of us, our car is truly our pride and joy, but for others, it’s nothing more than just a dumping ground on wheels.
It’s the latter that could win a £200 car cleaning bundle in this case though.
From takeaway containers and drinks cans, to random papers, packages and more, most of us either know someone who likes to keep their cars chocked full of rubbish, or are guilty of it ourselves, but that’s why leading car parts supplier, Euro Car Parts, has launched a nationwide competition to search for the messiest motor in the UK.
Now, it may not be a title to wear with pride, but getting to take home the top prize of a deep valet clean and your very own car cleaning bundle make it all the more worth while, and all you have to do is to submit a photo of your messy car interior to be in with a chance of winning.
And there’s still time for the Greater Manchester to represent the region this year.

The nationwide competition is set to close at midnight on Thursday 11th February, so you have a few days left to get those entries in.
Fancy having a look at what you’re up against already?
On the top left, we have an entry from Kevin Miller, who thanks his wife and kids for this array of clutter and won’t own up to any of it himself, and then on the top right, we have Steve Hitchman from Newbury’s entry, who, quite simply, seems to be using the back of his car as a skip.
Below on the left, it seems that Abigail Kaczalska from Preston has a couple of small passengers who like to make a pretty big mess.
Beth Blaylock on the right looks to have swapped the café for her car in Carlisle.

And underneath those two, it looks like Truro’s Rosalind Blight’s back seat passengers have nowhere to put their feet if she ever offers them a lift.
Speaking on the nationwide search, Helen Robinson – Corporate Communications Director at Euro Car Parts – said: “We all have busy lives so cleaning out our cars can sometimes come last on the list of endless jobs, however, it’s important to your car tidy because having things in the way can impact your driving [and] most of us have more extra time on our hands due to lockdown, making it a great time to finally clean it out.
“Though many of these entrants will need the car valet kit, there can only be one winner,

“So if your car is worse than these, don’t miss the chance to enter”.

Aldi has launched the world’s first lickable pigs in blankets wrapping paper… for some reason
Emily Sergeant
Aldi has launched its latest Christmas creation, and this one’s arguably wackier than anything else it’s brought out before.
There’s absolutely no denying that pigs in blankets are a staple of festive feasting, with millions of the little delicacies consumed throughout the UK each Christmas, but have you ever wished you could turn the taste of those pigs in blankets into a lickable wrapping paper to wrap all this year’s gifts in? Yeah probably not… Aldi‘s made it though.
It’s anticipated that more than 561 million pigs in blankets are going to be eaten over the festive period, new research has found, which is an average of 10 per person.
But if you just can’t bare to leave the taste of pigs in blankets behind, Aldi’s new wrapping paper is set to give shoppers a fun and tasty twist when it comes to gift-giving.
The limited-edition wrapping paper is inspired by Aldi’s very-own range of pigs in blankets, and is described as capturing the smoky, savoury flavour and smell of the festive treat, with stickers that peel back to reveal a truly unique ‘lickable’ experience.

Not only does the novelty wrapping paper taste and smells like pigs in blankets, it also looks the part on presents too with its pastel pink design, festive holly, and snowflake patterns.
“Pigs in Blankets are a highlight of the festive season… so we wanted to create something special to celebrate the Christmas classic,” commented Julie Ashfield, who is the Chief Commercial Officer at Aldi UK, as the new creation launches.
“This unique, lickable wrapping paper is the perfect way to spread extra joy on Christmas Day.”
Want to get your hands on it then? Unfortunately, it won’t be as simple as popping to your nearest Aldi store and picking up a roll, as with a creation as unique as this, there’s only going to be limited stock and a special shopper competition to win it.
To be in with a chance of winning, you simply need to email [email protected] with your full name before the deadline at 11:59pm on 1 December.
If you’re a lucky winner, you’ll be notified via email by 12 December, just in time to get wrapping gifts for the big day.

Oasis and adidas drop yet more new merch in the Live ’25 collection
Danny Jones
The Oasis and adidas love affair isn’t over just yet; it isn’t going anywhere, as the legendary Manc band group and global sports apparel franchise are releasing another batch of merch as part of the smash-hit Live ’25 collection.
After shirts, shoes, jackets and bucket hats galore sold out all over the world, adidas is now toasting not only the end of the reunion world tour but “the year that was Oasis” with a second drop in the already iconic crossover.
If you passed through Manchester at all during their Heaton Park homecoming run, you will have no doubt seen countless examples of the ‘adidas Originals x Oasis’ football shirt collaboration alone, not to mention several other bits of fashion in the official Live ’25 fashion line.
Now, just in time for Christmas, there’s a whole new set being introduced into the range of casual wear.
Simply titled ‘Oasis Live ‘25 Drop 2’, the latest additions to the adidas Originals collection are releasing next month and, obviously, will be sold in stores and online.
While the pop-up stores that opened up here in the city centre all over have now shut up shop, Greater Manchester’s adidas locations on Market Street – which turned into an Oasis fan paradise this past summer – and Pear Mill in Stockport will still be stocking the various bits of Britpop clobber.
Although the most recent items will be exclusively available domestically for now, they will be rolled out overseas in 2026.
Considering how quickly most of it sold out last time, you can guarantee most of the options to fly off the shelves just as fast here in the UK.
Honestly, we’ve only just managed to get our hands on the standard black ‘jacquard jersey’.
As you can see, a good chunk of the second drop is that same footy shirt in different colours and other tees in different lengths/variations.
Scheduled to launch on Friday, 12 December, the ‘Oasis x adidas Originals Live ‘25 Drop 2’ will go on sale at 9am sharpish, so you’d best get ready for a scrap in that digital queue.
Naturally, fans, fashionistas and collectors can expect virtually identical costs for the majority of pieces (and buying in-person will obviously help keep the cost down), though it does look like some price points have been adjusted.
As for the Live ’25 tour itself, now that the dust has settled on the ‘Oasis Mania‘ take two, Liam himself has taken to social media to express his gratitude in the most Gallagher way possible…
