About – John M. Redfern

Hi, welcome to my personal website.

I’m a motoring writer and blogger based in North East England, and this site is here to serve as a portfolio of my work for various media outlets.

I first started blogging in 2011 with my own blog engagesportmode.com, and went on to win the 2014 Guild of Motoring Writers’ Breakthrough Blogger Award.

As a result of that prize, I have had the incredible opportunity to work with Motoring Research since 2015, creating and contributing a wide range of motoring content.

My areas of expertise include:

  • Independently investigating and writing news stories,
  • Conducting and writing road tests of new and retro cars,
  • Researching detailed galleries and slideshows,
  • Curating and editing weekly/monthly newsletters,
  • Producing content tailored for individual clients and customers.

Underpinning all this is a genuine passion for researching new information, and presenting that with enthusiasm to new audiences.

Please feel free to use the contact page should you have any questions or enquiries.
