“Aviator, bull-fighter, renowned property investor and railway tycoon” are several things which I’ve never been described as. My name is Iain Kelly and I am a writer, producer, publisher journalist, car enthusiast, father and author.
This is my little corner of the Internet where I unleash ridiculous flights of fancy from my car-addled brain. For as long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by cars, the people around them, and the culture which they foster, and I’ve made it a career over the last quarter-century. You may have read my writing in the pages of STREET MACHINE magazine, or seen me on MIGHTY CAR MODS or BENNY’S CUSTOM WORKS YouTube channels - I do get around a bit.
You can find out more about my madcap world by clicking the About Me link at the top of the page. Or, you can help support my crippling addiction to overpowered American land yachts and 1980s BMWs by buying one of the books at the shop (either below this waffle, or from the menu at the top of the page).
Cheers,
Marv
I’ve spent 25-years writing about cars but it was the news I was going to be a father which spurred this passion project into life. What began as a series of short pieces of life advice I wished I’d had in my early adulthood, and was intended solely for my son, spun out of control.
There are now more than 50 chapters in this book, covering everything from understanding tax, to building a brick wall, from entering a room to buying a present, this is the Life Workshop Manual for young people entering the big, scary world.
