Quentin Willson is one of Britain's best-known motoring authorities. He spent over a decade presenting BBC's Top Gear alongside Jeremy Clarkson (and "VBH") and was largely responsible for bringing the once scandalously high prices of new cars in the UK down to the same level as the rest of Europe. He remains a much-loved champion of Britain’s beleaguered motorists, and in 2004 was awarded Motoring Writer of the Year.


Quentin regularly gives government ministers a hard time on the GMTV sofa, and was the first TV celebrity to agree to join Revolve’s campaigning band-wagon, and uniquely brings to its Advisory Council an insider’s view of the world of car sales and media coverage.
