Dean Gibson

Dean has been part of the Auto Express team for more than 15 years, and has gained a wealth of experience in that time, having written everything from first drives and road tests to used features and product reviews. By 2012 he was the magazine's Production Editor, but then he moved to the position of Deputy Road Test Editor, which he held for four years. Today, he updates and creates content for autoexpress.co.uk, and looks after Auto Express van reviews. In 2009 he beat rival UK journalists to win the Sony Gran Turismo Media Trophy, which is the closest he'll ever come to motorsport success.
