Andrew St Pierre White

 

Andrew St Pierre White is one of the world’s best known 4×4 writers, consultants, commentators and adventure-travel filmmakers. He first made his mark in the 4×4 overland community in 1993 when he wrote 'The Complete Guide to Four-Wheel Drive in Southern Africa'. 

Since then, Andrew’s influence on the 4×4 community and accessory industry is arguably unmatched in his lifetime. He is now most commonly referred to as 'The David Attenborough of 4WD'.

His brand of passion, directness and humour has resulted in trust levels as high as is possible with his huge YouTube audience. He may have inspired more overland expeditions and vehicle builds than anyone on Earth. He is also an inspired and passionate teacher.
