Paul Murrell spent most of his career in advertising, both in Australia and overseas, specialising in automotive accounts (GM-H, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Renault, among others). He surprised everyone (including himself) when he was very successful at it, winning numerous local and international awards. After selling his Sydney agency, he “retired” to the Adelaide Hills with wife and designated driver Sandra. He writes for numerous lifestyle and motoring magazines (both contemporary and classic) including the website he founded, seniordriveraus that promotes the interests and needs of drivers whose age and IQ are both over 50.
