Brand related merchandise - we've probably all done a keyring, even if it only came with the car. I have to admit when I had a Lexus I looked at the Lexus watches, although then decided pretty quickly they were stupid and served no purpose other than making me look even more of an idiot.
Having just purchased a Volvo, of course I had a look to see what was available, out of idle curiosity.
