Best footballers' cars - pictures

High-end exotic&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/best-cars/88679/best-supercars-2016">supercars</a>, hypercars and horrifically customised cars aren’t the norm when it comes to footballer motors. Most will settle for somethi

The old&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/mercedes">Mercedes</a>&nbsp;SLS AMG was a big hit with footballers thanks to its retro looks and thunderous V8. Now though, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/mercedes/am

The standard car offers 456bhp but the GT-S goes all out with 503bhp from the same 4.0-litre V8 enabling a 0-60mph time of 3.8s and a 198mph top speed. The AMG GT offers classic front-engined coupe proportions with a long sculpted bonn

The cabin is absolutely gorgeous with retro 50s inspired design touches mixed with modern infotainment tech. Customers can choose from a range of carbon, black or chrome exterior detailing packages but even as standard, the AMG GT is a

The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/land-rover/range-rover">Range Rover</a>&nbsp;used to have the top end of the luxury SUV market pretty much to itself but these days there’s an ever expanding list of rivals.&nbsp;<a href=

The Bentayga relies on a 6.0-litre W12 engine to shift it’s 2,440kg bulk about the place. With 600bhp and 900Nm from just 1,350rpm, shift it does. 0-60mph takes only 4.1 seconds and the giant SUV’s cornering poise is that of a car half

The Bentayga cabin adopts more of a sports car feel than the airy ambience of a Range Rover. It’s also similar to the layout found in other large VW Group SUV products like the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/audi/q7">Audi

Footballers aren’t usually known for their environmental conscience but when you can show the world you’re doing your bit for the planet from behind the wheel of a low, futuristic supercar, the idea takes on a new appeal for the ball-k

A range of BMW iPerformance plug-in hybrid and all-electric models were on display in LA.

Electric power means the i8 is beautifully hushed around town. Its interior is a great place to sit out a long journey and the latest BMW control interface means the technology is easy to use. But on the right road the i8 can really en

The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/audi/r8">Audi R8</a>&nbsp;V10 is a mid-engined supercar of the kind that footballers like but we’ve suggested they probably shouldn’t. At least Audi’s effort is a little less extrovert th

The Audi R8 V10 is actually a dying breed, a supercar without a turbocharged engine. The mighty V10 is an absolute treat to listen to and savagely fast with a 3.2s 0-62mph time and a 205mph top speed.&nbsp;

Inside, it’s Audi’s dark, ultra high tech, ultra high quality cabin design but pushed to the max with figure hugging seats and a steering wheel mounted starter button. It’s not practical in the way that the majority of the cars listed

Aston Martin has always been a little bit more subdued, a little bit more British, than other manufacturers of high-end supercars. You could never call the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/aston-martin/vanquish">Aston Martin

The Aston Vanquish costs from £193k and comes powered by Aston Martin’s sonorous V12 with 568bhp on tap. It’ll top 200mph, given enough speed limit-free space and the 0-60mph sprint will be done in 3.6s.

The carbon fibre body helps keep weight in check but inside there’s been no skimping on the luxury fixtures and fittings. Aston cabins have been beautifully crafted for some time but now the latest technology has found its way inside t

A footballer in a Ferrari is like meat and drink to the tabloid press but we think the Premier League’s finest are choosing the wrong Ferraris entirely. The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/ferrari/488">488 GTB</a>&nbsp;and

At £240,000, the likes of Wayne Rooney could afford a Ferrari GTC4 Lusso every week and its GT car design would give him the best of all worlds. Four-wheel drive brings all weather capability and the 681bhp 6.3-litre V12 serves up the

The GTC4 is a fantastically comfortable cruiser too so if our footballer suddenly needs to get to Barcelona in a hurry on transfer deadline day, there’s scarcely a better car for the job. There’s a big boot in the rear, measuring 430-l

Nothing shouts “I’ve got a tonne of cash” like a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/rolls-royce">Rolls-Royce</a>&nbsp;and there are many footballers who feel the need to shout precisely that whenever they get behind the wheel.

The Ghost may be the ‘baby’ Rolls-Royce but it’s still a considerable size. You get 2.4 tonnes of metal, wood and leather for your £180,000 outlay including a spookily smooth 6.6-litre twin-turbo V12.

The inside is where the Ghost comes into its own with beautifully handcrafted fixtures and fittings wherever you look. It’s a beautifully elegant way to travel and perfect for the footballer who sees himself as a cut about the rest.

If there is an ultimate footballer’s car, the Range Rover is it. Land Rover’s flagship is an ever-present in training ground car parks throughout the land and with good reason.&nbsp;

The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/land-rover/range-rover">Range Rover</a>&nbsp;is big and imposing but relatively commonplace so it won’t attract too much attention, especially with the requisite heavily tinted windows. A

Beneath the massive exterior of the Range Rover is a massive interior that’s also beautifully designed. There’s a long-wheelbase option that adds 200mm of extra length for even more comfortable rear seat accommodation but even the stan
