When the factory standard isn’t doing it for you any more, a lot of drivers start to consider what they could add or change in their vehicle to get a bit more fun out of it. But what to change? With tens of thousands of individual parts in a car, there’s a galaxy of choice available for those looking to make an improvement somewhere.

If you’re looking to make your morning commute or Sunday drive better in a substantial way, there are a few classic upgrades you can reach for that are sure to add a little bit of something extra to every kilometre. Don’t be fooled by flashy or unnecessary additions – we’ve rounded up a few classic changes that give you great value for money whatever car you’re driving.

Brakes

Good brakes aren’t just a luxury, they’re an essential. A quality set on your tyres ensures that you’re able to come to a complete stop faster in emergency situations, potentially preventing or mitigating an accident. What’s more, you’ll appreciate the things it adds outside of emergencies. Simple things like slowing down as you approach the lights or losing speed as you round a corner in wet weather are so much easier, smoother and safer when you have a high-quality set of brakes equipped. More expensive trim packages from many manufacturers frequently include a set of carbon ceramic brakes, making them an affordable upgrade no matter what you drive.

Wheels

You’d be amazed how many problems a good set of wheels and tyres fixes. All the engineering and technology packed into your vehicle is in service of giving you more control over how your wheels behave on the pavement, so ensuring that yours are top-notch go a long way to enhancing the comfort and safety of your drive. Not only will you eke a bit more performance and ride comfort out of an otherwise stock vehicle with a new pair of wheels, you’ll also be transforming the look of your car, giving your vehicle a fresh appearance.

Upholstery

When you’re on your morning commute, an uncomfortable chair can make a bad traffic jam even worse. Fix that but upgrading your chairs. Often more expensive trim packages offer upgraded chairs made featuring everything seat warmers to exclusive leather fabrics, adding a bit of comfort to even the most frustrating drives.
