Autorenporträt

Ross Alkureishi spent 12 years as a lecturer in sport and exercise science before realizing that students were even more demanding than the old jalopies he ran in his spare time. In 2009 he turned to motoring journalism, learning his trade as staff writer at Classic Cars magazine ( Thoroughbred & Classic Cars outside the UK). Today he regularly contributes to a range of magazines. He is also the author of Motorbooks’ The Complete Book of Classic MG Cars.
