Top 10 player's cars: Ronaldo is Maserati admirer and Sterling loves Bentley...

  /  autty

EVERY year, without fail, footballers love to swap out their old car and try a new motor for size.

And in 2019, we saw Premier League superstars across the land driving a new set of wheels either to training, to the ground, or out shopping for new threads.

But what's been the most popular car among the footballing elite since the turn of this year?

Well, thanks to JBR Capital, the UK's leading independent high-end vehicle financier, we can tell you exactly what these athletes are riding in.

Here are the top 10 cars bought by Prem players using finance. Incredibly, we can tell you last year's number one - the Range Rover Evoque - has totally dropped off the list.

10. FORD MUSTANG FASTBACK

Price: From £37,685

Top speed: 157 mph

Power: 435 bhp

0-60 mph: Less than five seconds

One of the most iconic sports cars ever made, the Ford Mustang is as much an American icon as John Wayne.

And at just shy of £38k, it's a reasonable price for a solid ride.

9. BENTLEY BENTAYGA ONYX

Price: From £162,700

Top speed: 187 mph

Power: 600 bhp

0-60 mph: Four seconds

When the Bentayga came on the market, it soon became a footballers' favourite because of its comfortability and size.

Raheem Sterling is an admirer and has one, as does his Man City teammate Sergio Aguero. And recently Jesse Lingard rolled into training driving the SUV.

8. MASERATI GRANCABRIO

Price: From £106,285

Top speed: 180.8 mph

Power: 454 bhp

0-60 mph: 4.4 - 5 seconds

One of the many cars Cristiano Ronaldo has sat in his garage, this beauty is one of the finest Maserati produce.

It's a four-door convertible, the first the Italian brand has ever made, and it just oozes charm and sophistication.

7. RANGE ROVER AUTOBIOGRAPHY

Price: From £101,260

Top speed: 155.3 mph

Power: 517 bhp

0-60 mph: 5.4 seconds

The first of two Range Rovers that make the list, the Autobiography is one of the best all-round luxury cars on the market.

Michael Carrick, Marcus Rashford, Phil Jones and Harry Kane certainly believe so, the three are supporters of the British motor.

6. LAMBORGHINI HURACAN SPYDER

Price: From £198,876

Top speed: 201.9 mph

Power: 630 bhp

0-60 mph: 2.3 seconds

A stunning speed demon, the Huracan Spyder is a classy supercar with a hefty price tag.

That's why footballers are lining up to get their hands on one - including Manchester United target Mauro Icardi.

5. FERRARI 488 SPIDER

Price: From £217,219

Top speed: 201.9 mph

Power: 659 bhp

0-60 mph: 2.9 seconds

Mario Balotelli loved his 488 Spider, and was often seen driving around Nice in his.

And on a trip to LA last November, Sergio Aguero rented one to cruise around West Hollywood.

4. AUDI RS6 AVANT

Price: From £80,000

Top speed: 155.3 mph

Power: 605 bhp

0-60 mph: 3.2 seconds

Audi's fastest estate car, it's also one of the most expensive of its type on the market.

And it's also quite spacious, with five seats that'll sit a footballers' teammates or his family.

3. MERCEDES-BENZ G-CLASS

Price: from £91,215

Top speed: 136.7 mph

Power: 563 bhp

0-60 mph: 4.1 seconds - 5.4

Also known as the G-Wagen, Mercedes have been shifting tons of their mid-size four-wheel drive luxury SUV.

Mesut Ozil's got one in army green, and it's another stunning motor that Raheem Sterling has got in his garage too. Surprisingly wasn't higher on the list.

2. BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT

Price: From £159,900

Top speed: 210 mph

Power: 552 bhp

0-60 mph: 3.4 seconds

The oldies are always the favourites. The Continental GT first came along in 2003, and has been Bentley's most popular car ever since.

It's UK-built W12 engine is also more efficient than before, with a fuel consumption averaging at 23 miles-per-gallon, and it's become a footballers' staple.

1. RANGE ROVER SPORT SVR

Price: From £99,620

Top speed: 175.8 mph

Power: 542 bhp

0-60 mph: 4.5 seconds

It had to be. The Range Rover Sport is the winner of this year's most popular leased among footballers.

Red Devils star Jesse Lingard loves driving around the shops. They're classy, comfortable, and always reliable. They scream money too.

NO CHANGE HERE

Darren Selig, JBR Capital's executive chairman, believes that footballers are putting their trust in the same cars.

However, he was shocked to see brands like Porsche drop out completely from the list.

“It's not surprising that footballers haven't greatly changed their taste in cars over the last few years," he said.

"But it is interesting that in terms of marques, Jeep, Porsche and McLaren have been replaced in the top 10 by Audi, Maserati and Ford.”

Selig previously told us why footballers prefer to lease cars, rather than buy them.

"Footballers favour financing cars because they still see cars as a monthly cash-flow purchase rather than a capital item," he revealed.

"They may well be earning a lot of money, but all that money is invested for them through their financial advisors and agents.

"At the end, they are left with pocket money, so to speak, and they're left with a monthly budget to run their lives.

"Cars are just one of those items they like to spend their money on and enjoy."
