At Ben’s Automotive Decor, we have something really exciting coming in—a Bentley W12 engine that we’ll be turning into a custom coffee table. This isn’t just any engine. It’s special, with a unique design that makes it powerful and interesting to look at, even outside of a car. The Bentley W12 engine is a bit like two V6 engines put together, making it compact but super powerful. It has twelve cylinders, arranged in a “W” shape, which helps it fit into the engine space while still producing a ton of power. This setup is what makes the W12 engine so different and cool. When we get our hands on a Bentley W12, it’s always exciting because we get to create...

Now, with social media, podcasts, and YouTube channels like Daily Driven Exotics (DDE), it’s easier than ever to stay connected to the automotive world. One particular video from DDE in September 2021 left an unforgettable impression on me, sparking the creation of one of our most unique projects at Ben’s Automotive Decor. In that DDE video, their beloved McLaren 720S caught on fire! While thankfully no one was hurt, the engine didn’t fare so well. A connecting rod blew a hole right through...
Interested in purchasing? Click here. This month I'm thrilled to showcase an amazing coffee table that stands out from the rest - it's been transformed from a genuine Rolls Royce jet turbine that was once used by the Royal Air Force's Red Arrows. The Donor Turbine's History The Rolls Royce turbine at the foundation of this table once powered a jet in the world-famous Red Arrows, the aerobatic display team of the Royal Air Force. Known for their incredible aerial stunts and distinctive precision flying, the Red Arrows are truly legends in the world of aviation. The turbine itself was shipped from England all the way to California so I could transform it into a piece of functional art. I like...
