24-year-old soccer football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has put his luxury car collection up for sale after accepting an £80 million ($128,467,650 USD / €92,294,100) offer to play for Real Madrid.

The vehicles up for sale include a Bentley Continental GT Speed (£114,950), a Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Tiptronic S (£69,995), and a Mercedes C220 CDI (£10,795). As one source put it, "Cristiano is keen to sell his cars because they are right-hand drive. He will just go out and replace them."

He certainly knows how to replace vehicles, in the past few years Cristiano has owned a Porsche Cayenne, a Bentley Continental GTC, a Ferrari 599 GTB (which he crashed), and an Audi R8.

All three vehicles are being sold by a local Manchester dealer which has listed them on Auto Trader.

in all seriousness, the C220 is a great car and all, but why would he care about fuel economy? like janobr, I really didn't see that coming

The c220 was for his family when they were in uk... he said that to one tv channel of his country...

Comme on man -hi dosent even have a Lambo, every rich person MUST have a Lambo...:) just shows his bad taste..

That's BS,

In Clarkson's words, "Lambo's are for Cocks"...

Ya you plonker ( what is that?)... Besides, Clarkson is the biggest cock in the world.. Cristiano being a close second.

No doubt, Ronaldo is a cock...

But yes, Clarkson has said (on separate occasions) that you have to be a "cock" to drive an M anything or a Murcielago.

some car collection....pfahh. uuu porsche carerra 2, not even a turbo. and the C220 cdi, thats lame. not because it's not a good car, it's because he has a lot of money and.... whatever. so if we sum this up it is somewhere around 180 grand... big deal. some superstar footballer he is. i thought he said he is very proud playing for Man Utd, and that he isnt going to leave the club very easily. yeah right...

those are not all his cars, just the right hand drive cars. he also owns a Bugatti Veyron and other exotics. of course he was proud of playing for Manchester , who wouldn't be ? but pro football, like every other business is all about money.

Considering the cost of registering and insuring a car in the UK that's not a bad collection for a 24year old single male driver. I'm sure he has some more in Portugal as well.

Someone just please liquidate this guy before he crushes more cars.

The Merc is for the sisters and their husbands to drive when they were in Manchester spending time with him... He just couldn't afford to have his clumsy sisters fooling around in Bentleys and porsches...

It is a good thing to sell his RHD cars. He can crash LHD cars instead.

I'm portuguese, and in the pictures of him in the vacations shows him in a ferrari 599 GTB red (just like the one he crashed) with portuguese license, i think he has a bmw 3 series touring and a Q7, because there are some pic's that show him in those cars...

Man... such a good life. Drive nice cars, hook up with women every night... what else does he need to give a damn about..
