This job takes him to far-flung places to drive far-flung exotic cars, often around racetracks or over sand dunes or across frozen lakes. When not travelling on assignment, he’s at home with his family in Toronto, trying but mostly failing to maintain a garage full of needy old cars and an impulsively-purchased motorcycle. Yes, he knows he has the best job in the world and no, he doesn’t have a favourite car.
