With Christmas right around the corner, many of us will be scrambling into our cars to make last-minute dashes to the shops for presents we've forgotten to buy, or loading up our boots with enough food shopping to see us through the week between Christmas and New Year.

Thankfully though, motoring experts have devised some clever hacks that could save drivers both fuel and money this winter - and one of them will see you drive everywhere with a bowl of water on your passenger seat.
