We all know that fortune follows fame closely and for those who are lucky enough to enjoy recognition, they often tend to become double lucky when money continues to chase them, putting them in a position to be able to buy anything they fancy or might have dreamed of.
Something similar has happened to world famous soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo as he set about collecting high speed vehicles as a hobby. Imagine the icing on the cake when he gets offered a whopping $128 million just to switch over to Real Madrid and is faced with the enviable task of disposing of his huge collection of right hand drive beauties.
Some of the superb cars that are going to be up for the taking are a Bentley Continental GT Speed at £114,950, a Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Tiptronic S model that the soccer star wants to dispose of for £69,995. Surely these vehicles are not going to be offered on Car Credit or any kind of Car Finance schemes.
That is not all. He also is looking to sell the fantastic turbo diesel MERCEDES Benz C220 for a modest £10,795. If you are thinking or feeling sorry for the footballer, banish the thought as very soon you will find him replacing these cars as he sets up base in Madrid.
