Quentin
Willson is best known as a motoring aficionado and
reporter

series, ' Top Gear ' (1990-1999) and his own classic
car series, '
The Car's The Star ' that was nominated by the Royal
Television Society for best factual programme in 1997.
Today he is recognised as a consumer champion in the fast-moving,
wheeler dealer worlds of both Car and House buying, where
he exposes sharp practises and underhand dealings to safeguard
the public. He takes a refreshing look at the service
in both industries often with a hint of sarcasm and a
wry smile.
He has transferred his knowledge and experience in the
motor industry into print as the author of the BBC publications,
Top Gear The Good Car Guide in both 1993 and 1994. He
also wrote the Ultimate Classic Car Book and Classic American
Cars , both published by Dorling Kindersley. He has also
written for a number of magazines and newspapers including,
The Times, The Sunday Times, The Telegraph, Daily Express,
What Car, BBC Good Homes, Classic & Sportscar, AA
Magazine and The Mirror.
