Hi, I’m Ben.


A Brighton-based marketing professional with a lifelong love of cars.

 

I enjoy writing car reviews on my blog, Ben Talks Auto, where I share honest first drives, clear opinions, and industry insight on the cars people are genuinely curious about. My interest in cars started young and has grown into something I now get to explore properly, both in writing and on camera.

 

Alongside the website, I also present car review videos for the Rivervale YouTube channel, bringing new models to life and helping drivers make sense of a fast-changing car market.

 

I’m known for informed, relatable car content with personality. Calm, considered, and focused on what actually matters to drivers.

 

Away from cars and marketing, balance matters to me.

 

  • In the last couple of years, looking after myself with time at the gym and a focus on health and wellbeing
  • Good coffee, well-made cocktails
  • Long walks, day trips, and weekend breaks
  • Exploring new places and meeting new people

 

Alongside my work, I’ve been involved in supporting LGBT+ Pride events and DEI initiatives, helping create spaces where people can show up as themselves and feel represented.

 

If you want to get to know me a bit better, follow me on Instagram, where I share filming days, cars I’m driving, and the occasional slice of everyday life.

 

You can also find me on LinkedIn, or drop me a message.
