Jack Quick has proven himself as one of the most prolific motoring journalists despite still being relatively fresh to the industry. He joins the CarsGuide team after spending four years at CarExpert in various roles.

Growing up on a farm in regional Victoria, Jack has been driving cars since before he could even see over the wheel. He also had plenty of experience operating heavy machinery. In fact, he currently holds a Heavy Rigid license.

On the farm, Jack spent a lot of time bush bashing in his family’s 1992 Suzuki Sierra soft-top and 1985 Holden Drover ute, and this helped fuel his life-long obsession with cars. He currently owns a 2020 Suzuki Jimny for nostalgic purposes.

A detail-oriented person with a huge flair for the creative, Jack does competitive hip-hop dancing outside of work. His team, Pacific Elite Sirens, recently competed at the 2025 Dance Worlds and placed 12th place in their division.
