Jeff was with evo from the beginning. In the first issue he wrote a column about how one day we'd see diesel-engined supercars. Everyone scoffed at the time, but he's been proved right this year with the unveiling of the Audi R8 V12.

Jeff's knowledge was exceptional, and he had a wonderful way of making technology understandable for the average person.

He was great company, a real character, and he's going to be badly missed by all on the magazine and the industry as a whole.

Full tribute to follow.
