Top Ten Footballer's cars

Lads’ mag Nuts has unveiled its latest ‘Stars and their Cars’ report, which takes a look at the most popular cars driven by Premiership football players. For the third year running, the BMW X5 tops the list as the most popular car sitting in the garage of 25 of England’s finest footballers.
4x4s continue to fill the top two places (1st BMW X5, 2nd Range Rover Sport) for idols like Cristiano Ronaldo, Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney - even though Ronaldo for example is used to advertise Suzuki's small Swift city car.

Note: Football is something you play with your feet, with 2 goals, 2 goal keepers and 10 other players on each side. It is not a game invloving men running round in body armour holding an elliptical ball.

The List in Full

1. BMW X5
2. Range Rover Sport
3. Porsche 911 Turbo
4. Bentley Continental GT
5. Aston Martin DB9
6. BMW M6
7. Mercedes Benz ML63 AMG
8. Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG
9. Audi Q7
10. Ferrari 360

Of course, this is a perfect example of sensible, economical motoring.

Hit link to see who owns the cars, 26 players own an X5!

he does, and many players used to have Lincoln Navigators until they became very unfashionable (Americana had a boom in the early 2000's)

Soccer is for girls, real men play american football!

but soccer players seem to have good taste in cars though, better then real football players with there escalades on 24's.

Why would you drive in an Hummer or escalade when you could drive a car ?

It's strange, at the start of its life, the X5 (in Britain) had a huge reputation as a footballer's car, then lost it to the Continental GT.
And most football players use the A8 as their limo, Beckham does.

That isn't exactly to Audi's benefit. The Beckhams are in the "not to be encouraged" category along with Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson.

I rember my friend Jefferey really putting it succinctly, “Posh? She looks like a hooker, and is little more than the English version of trailer trash." That isn't exactly verbaitum but it's close. He is the friend that says what everyone thinks but doesn't say usually.

No, we love David and Victoria in Britain. They're style icons.
Posh may be thin and ugly but she still won many magazine's "most stylish" awards here. Many people would buy something if they did.
And David was the leader of the metrosexual revolution for many years.

I'll just say that my English friend Paul thinks they are both irretrievably stupid, I think he also used the word "upstart".

Do people really want their children to idolize such people? I find that disturbing.

Say what you want about the metrosexual revolution in England: I don't know anything about that. But here homosexuals have been dressing and acting that way for years and years. That is the whole deinition of metrosexual: a heterosexual [supposedly] who dresses and acts like homosexuals have for decades even.
