An Audience with Mat Watson

Join the world’s most-followed car journalist, Mat Watson as he launches his long-awaited book, AUTOBiography: An A-Z Exposé of Cars.

Trusted by his many millions of followers online, Mat’s seal of approval is sought by car manufacturers the world over. In his 25-year career as a motor journalist, he has driven and tested every vehicle under the sun, from engineering marvels such as the Bugatti Chiron and Ferrari F40, to the grand-touring stalwarts of highways and motorways the world over – Audis, Volvos, Fords, Fiats, Citroens, Mercedes and Teslas – to absolute crapheaps which should never have made it out of the factory gates.

He has crawled into hundreds of boots, peered under thousands of bonnets, kicked tens of thousands of tyres, and has perfected a nose for what makes a beautiful, brilliant and, sometimes truly atrocious, car.

From this event you can expect Mat’s signature humorous, pithy and highly opinionated take on all the major car manufacturers, with never before heard anecdotes, insider information and hot topics of the automative world.

All tickets to the Birmingham event on Thursday 6 November 2025 will include a signed copy of the book.
