Let’s dive into his enviable list of cars that clearly express his love for expensive, fast, and luxurious cars.

3. Audi Q7 

Rio Ferdinand's Audi Q7

Well, well, Audi Q7 cars have been in the garage of several footballers like Keiran Gibbs, Wayne Rooney, and Luis Nani, to name a few. So, Rio owning one is no big deal. It serves as an ideal practical car to go for training.

Mr. Rio was also spotted driving one in the UK and captured by media personnel in 2013. The black Q7 seemed pretty basic with no modifications, and its plain black interiors added to the bland look. Nah! We don’t like subtle Audis when they are meant to be glitzy! 


2. Porsche Cayenne Magnum Techart

1. Jaguar XJ

The Jaguar XJ is certainly an uncommon car among footballers. But Rio Ferdinand got one for himself as an ambassador. He was spotted driving it a few times and leaving MU’s training ground when an unfortunate incident happened.

Rio Ferdinand's special mentions

Well, buying a dozen cars and selling them is just another thing in the lives of footballers. Besides the ones mentioned above, Rio Ferdinand was spotted driving a blue Ferrari and arrived at the Thorp Arch training ground.

He was also the owner of the Aston Martin Vanquish S and was spotted on a Sunday drive in 2012. Considering the time period of over a decade, it’s highly unlikely that he still owns these cars. It’s possible that he sold these cars, but they deserve a special mention.
