After finishing his journalism degree he secured a Staff Writer role at Classic Car Weekly. During that time he broke many news stories but also broke down in a lot of old cars. He was quickly promoted to News Editor, before leaving the classic world for new cars at buyacar.co.uk.
He joined Parkers as Finance Editor in 2019, looking after all things money and advice, before becoming the site’s Deputy Editor in 2022.
Murray says: ‘When I was growing up I was utterly fascinated with all things mechanical. Eventually this turned into a real love for cars and I inhaled mags like they were sweets. After reading a mag one evening I thought, how hard can that be? And here I am today.’
When not writing, fiddling with websites or driving cars, Murray’s favourite hobby is travelling. His most memorable trips include Cuba and Palestine, while Japan and Tanzania are next on the agenda.
