Darryl Starr is a veteran of the newspaper industry, having worked for 51 years at the Border Mail in Albury-Wodonga. As the award-winning regional daily’s long-time motoring editor, he has road-tested pretty much every new car released in Australia since 1967. His favourite road routes include some of the most scenic towns in North-East Victoria and the Southern Riverina, covering more conditions and test variables than any city-based motoring writer. He was the newspaper's motoring editor for 48 years and for 15 years he also wrote for What's On and Domain, the paper's tourist and real estate supplements. Darryl is also an author, having written 'A spirit of progress, 110 years of motoring in Albury-Wodonga' and 'Are we there yet, Mr Holmes?' In 2022 he celebrates 55 years as a motoring writer, the last seven for his own publication, thecountrydriver.com. His knowledge of the roads of North East Victoria and the Southern Riverina region of NSW is immeasurable, and he has ridden the highs and lows of various forms of motorsport.
