We farewell current editor John Oxley from the driver’s seat of Motor Equipment News with this issue, John is moving on to other adventures after a lifetime of automotive writing and over 12 years with Adrenalin Publishing. We wish him well in his future endeavours and thank him for the time writing for and editing our automotive titles NZ4WD, New Zealand Company Vehicle and Motor Equipment News over that time.

From the November issue I will be taking on the editor’s seat. I edited Motor Equipment News’s forerunner in our stable Automotive Industry Magazine (AIM) which later merged with Motor Equipment News, so it will be nice to get back to a more direct involvement with the repair industry. I can be contacted at editor@motorequipmentnews.co.nz .
