Ronaldo Sold His Bentley and Mercedes

When you are the most expensive football player in the world, you pretty much change your cars with the same frequency you change your underwear. Well, that is if you wear any... Therefore, Cristiano Ronaldo decided to free up his garage a bit and get rid of two of his cars, a Bentley Continental GTC Speed and a 2004 diesel Mercedes C-Class.

The Portuguese footballer has recently completed a world-record £80 million ($135,95 million) transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid, where he will get £29 million a year. So if you thought that he is selling his cars because he is in need for money, forget it.

Ronaldo’s cars were sold by Manchester dealer Vehicle Consulting via Auto Trader pretty much instantly. A Man U fan took the opportunity of owning a car that belonged to the world’s most expensive footballer for just £10,795 ($18,336), and bought the Mercedes. The Bentley was sold for £114,995 ($195,330).

The 24-year-old momma’s boy sold a lot of his cars via Auto Trader, including a Porsche 911, a Porsche Cayenne, a Bentley Continental GTC, and an Audi R8, without any regrets. However, the only car that seems to have gotten under his skin was a Ferrari 599 GTB. After crashing one in January and escaped with no charges, he went on and bought a brand new one.

Ronaldo is currently expecting to see if things clear up after he smashed the car window of a 17-year-old girl who was waiting for him in front of his house in Lisbon, Portugal, to get an autograph. Ronaldo then said then he felt harassed and accused the man who was with the girl of being a paparazzi that tried to blackmail him after getting the incident on tape.
