David Beckham car collection – Maserati MC20

Maserati cars are known for their finesse and that is why they had roped in David Beckham to design a car. As a token of appreciation, Maserati presented a new MC20 to Beckham. Reportedly, Beckham personally did a lot of design tweaks on this car. Considering all this, the car is a one-off. Power-wise, the MC20 comes with a 3.0-litre twin turbo V6 engine and can do the 0-100 kmph sprint in just 2.8 seconds.

McLaren MP4-12C Spider

The McLaren MP4-12C Spider was a ground-breaking car when launched in 2013 as it comes with Forumla one tech inside it. These details surely must have enticed Beckham as he bought the car in black colour. Due to the limited models made the MP4-12C Spider is worth a lot now in the second-hand market. Under the hood, the MP4-12C Spider comes with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine and can do the 0-100 kmph sprint in just 3.3 seconds.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage

The Next car on the list is a classic i.e. the V8 Vantage. The price of the car has skyrocketed now due to its limited availability and classic looks. Beckham has been spotted driving the car several times with his wife. Under the hood, the V8 Vantage comes with a 5.3-litre naturally aspirated V8 engine. According to claims, the V8 Vantage can do the 0 to 100 kmph sprint in 5.1 seconds, which was certainly a big thing in 1988.

Bentley Continental GT Supersports

Another special car on the list is the Continental GT Supersports. It is a special car as it was gifted by Beckham’s wife Victoria to cheer him from defeat. We all would love such gifts, wouldn’t we? The one owned by Beckham comes with a 6.0-litre turbocharged W12 engine. With this engine, the car can do the 0 to 100 kmph sprint in just 3.7 seconds.

McLaren 720S

Mclaren 720S is the footballer’s most recent purchase. According to reports, it replaces the earlier mentioned MP4-12C Spider. Beckham’s 720S comes with a custom-painted shiny silver colour, which would have been a hefty upgrade. The 720S comes with a 4.0-litre V8 engine under the hood and can do the 0 to 100 kmph sprint in just 2.8 seconds.

David Beckham car collection – Bentley Mulsanne

Beckham was one of the first buyers of the Mulsanne. Bentley had launched the Mulsanne to replace the Arnage in its lineup.

Bentley claims that the Mulsanne can do the 0 to 100 kmph sprint in just 4.8 seconds.

Rolls-Royce Ghost

Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe
