2003 test-drove and had my views of the newly-launched Volkswagen Phaeton printed in 'The Verdict' column for The Independent.
2004-2005 contributor to The Chauffeur magazine (now Professional Driver) for used and new car reviews (Audi A8 L) with articles on congestion charging and LPG conversion.
2005-2007 contributor to insidemotoring.com (now defunct) for new car reviews.
2009-present founding Editor of www.motoview.co.uk for new car reviews and money-saving advice as well as presenter of the 'motovieweditor' channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/motovieweditor?feature=mhee
I select lightly-damaged cars for purchase and subsequent repair with help from a bodywork specialist.
2011 wrote official press release for Top Gear live driver, Paul Swift,. distributed via Newspress: http://www.motoview.co.uk/index.php/draft/
Specialist areas
To give me editorial control, motoview.co.uk was launched by myself to include critical new car reviews, supported by film: http://www.youtube.com/user/motovieweditor?feature=mhee . I endeavour to support fact with reason and strive to undertake a comprehensive approach to testing with an emphasis on independent mpg calculations. Motoring-related products are also used and subsequently written about for distributors. Conscious of sustainability within the industry, I participate in and project-manage safe repairs of carefully selected cars that have been declared a total-loss by their insurer. Increasingly, I am contacted by car buyers who ask me to source their choice of vehicle.
