Anthony Crawford
Senior Road Tester
Anthony “Crawf” Crawford’s enthusiasm for cars and motorcycles began on a sheep farm in Warren, NSW, where from the age of 10 he and his brother were driving old Peugeots, Willys Jeeps, and step-through ag bikes. Their passion made more sense later when they discovered their father had been a successful car and bike racer. After a period playing collegiate tennis in the US and a short stint on the professional tour in Europe, Anthony returned to his first love - cars. He created two Network 10 shows, Behind the Wheel and Drive TV, before co-founding CarAdvice, which was later sold to Nine Entertainment. He then teamed up with Paul Maric and Alborz Fallah to launch CarExpert, a turbocharged automotive website that has quickly become a leading voice in the industry. Today, Anthony still loves every minute of the job, whether testing the latest models or enjoying his own Hyundai i20 N and BMW R NineT.
