20 Premier League Footballers and Their Luxury Sports Cars

We all have our fantasy about being the highly paid footballer with enough cash to have any number of high dollar sports cars that we all crave. Next to scoring a trophy winning goal the next best thing to give you that kind of rush has to be a top dollar luxury sports car, right?

In hopes of satisfying all of our own automobile envious streaks, we take a look at the rides of those players we all at times wish we could have been.

Manchester United: Wayne Rooney

Rooney jumps in his black convertible Lamborghini. That £26,000 per day salary is the life is it not?

Chelsea: Frank Lampard

Frank Lampard drives away in his Ferrari Scuderia Spider M16, one of multiple Italian horses he owns.

Liverpool: Steven Gerrard

When the Reds Captain isn't on the pitch, or trying not to accidentally hit children with his Bentley Continental, it is a nice piece of luxury car to admire.

Arsenal: Robin Van Persie

While it is not the luxury sports car you would imagine the Dutch striker owning, this is a proud piece of history for the player as he shows off a vintage 1991 Nissan Figaro via Twitter.

Chelsea: Fernando Torres

Fernando Torres has a chat with an officer about the photographer that he believed was tailing him home in his Aston Martin DB9 Coupe. Apparently he was right, otherwise this picture would not exist.

Newcastle United: Steven Taylor

Steven Taylor gets welcomed to the Newcastle United training ground and signs autographs for the fans from his BMW Coupe.

Manchester United: Rio Ferdinand

Rio Ferdinand is another Red Devils with a taste for luxury sports vehicles. This one was taken as he enjoyed a ride in his Aston Martin Vantage.

Manchester City: Carlos Tevez

Carlos Tevez has enjoyed some fun rides in his Bentley Continental GT, but he just recently pleaded guilty to speeding and now faces points on his license. 

Manchester City: Mario Balotelli

Before it was totaled, Mario Balotelli's Audi R8 was a fine sight, but not to be worried he also now has a Maserati to replace the now departed Audi pictured above.

Stoke City: Jermaine Pennant

Although he has never been to the heights of income as many others in this post, Jermaine Pennant has brought in a hefty haul as a Journeyman. Pictured above is his Aston Martin coupe with his P33NNT signature license plate of the player.

Chelsea: John Terry

England and Chelsea defender John Terry takes a casual stroll away from his Bentley Continental.

Manchester United: Michael Owen

Michael Owen joins the list of English footballers with Ferraris in their driveways. The former Liverpool, Real Madrid and Newcastle player continues to enjoy a lavish car lifestyle despite rarely having to lift a finger at Old Trafford.

Chelsea: Nicolas Anelka

Chelsea forward Nicolas Anelka hops out of his custom Mercedes somewhere outside of London.

Aston Villa: Stephen Ireland

While Stephen Ireland has not been the playmaker lately that he was for a time at Manchester City, the now Aston Villa man still enjoys a flashy ride in his Audi R8.

Stoke City: Peter Crouch

Peter Crouch and newly wed wife Abbey Clancy take off from their wedding this summer in the England International's Bentley.

Tottenham Hotspur: Benoit Assou-Ekotto

Benoit Assou-Ekotto is the hero of any environmental loving football fan. The Spurs defender is a man looking beyond the need for speed as he drives a Smart Car and could care less if his fellow players harass him about it.

Tottenham Hotspur: Jermain Defoe

Jermaine Defoe, like many others in this slideshow, is the proud owner of an Aston Martin. However, with the abundance already pictured, it seemed better to show you something new with Defoe's totally custom Range Rover.

Unattached: El Hadji Diouf

Although he is no longer at an EPL club, former Blackburn Rover El Hadji Diouf cannot be left out as a member of the luxury sports car club. His custom chrome paint job on an SLR Mercedes coupe is one that always catches the eye.

Tottenham Hotspur: William Gallas

The veteran Spurs defender is no stranger to the custom luxury sports car world. His custom Mercedes McLaren SLR is a step above some of the other specialty cars around.

Everton: Louis Saha

Although he has since wrecked his Ferrari, Everton's out of sorts striker Louis Saha has had some great Italian stallions during his time in the EPL.
