With Christmas just around the corner, Motorpoint has created this mind-boggling brainteaser filled with festive cheer.  

The intricate design features hundreds of cars driving home for Christmas alongside other seasonal items including Christmas trees, presents and a single Santa – but can you find his hiding place?  

With millions of motorists planning trips to visit family and friends over the festive season, car owners have already been warned to expect long delays if travelling on the days immediately preceding Christmas. 

If you are struggling to locate Santa in amongst the traffic you aren’t alone. Just 9% of people can beat this brainteaser in under 17 seconds. Need a clue? Focus your attention on the bottom left of the image. 

“It’s no secret that driving during the festive season can be stressful. This is particularly true for drivers who aren’t used to making long journeys or spending lots of time in their vehicles.

“For anyone planning longer journeys to visit friends and family this Christmas, my biggest piece of advice would be to do as much as possible to reduce stress on the day you are travelling. For example, filling your car up with fuel a couple of days before you travel might seem simple, but can mean that you start your journey much more relaxed.”

Still struggling to find Santa? Don’t worry, only 68% of people were able to find Santa hidden within the festive scene.  

“We all tend to be working to tight timelines over the festive period so it’s worth building extra time into your journey to account for traffic and a couple of breaks to stretch your legs and get some fresh air. They’re all small things but can impact how you feel when you reach your destination.”
