Conran in gear for car gadgets

Sebastian Conran is designing a range of luxury car accessories for exclusive English leather company Connolly.

Conran has come up with designs for pieces such as a luxury tool kit and the ultimate jump lead kit which are due to go on-shelf this autumn.

This is the first time Conran has worked with Connolly. “He has got an ingenious mind for gadgets,” says Connolly managing director Simon Merriman.
