EMMANUEL ADEBAYOR’S car collection quite simply leaves all others biting the dust.
And it is his customised Rolls-Royce Phantom that steals the show, not least because of its price tag.
The former Arsenal star, now 37, showed off his luxury motors on Instagram to “motivate” his fans to be the best they can be.
That came after he explained why he is refusing to donate to Togo’s coronavirus crisis.
The most impressive motor in his fleet is his one-of-a-kind Roller that starts at an eye-popping £360,000 – with an orange paint job and matching interior.
And there is the personalised number plate – 0004 SEA – a reference to his shirt number and initials, Sheyi Emmanuel Adebayor.
No wonder that alongside one image of him at the wheel of the car he wrote: “Love my lifestyle.”
Adebayor, who last played for Paraguayan club Olimpia, boasts an amazing array of cars which he keeps safely under cover at a custom-built hangar at his huge home in Accra, Ghana.
SPYDER MAN
One photo shows Adebayor apparently fast asleep with his cavalcade stretched out behind him as far as the eye could see.
The Roller took pride of place in that photo but it is his £18,000 Can-Am Spyder trike which is probably his weirdest vehicle.
The futuristic three-wheeler boasts 115hp and electronic cruise control.
It looks ideal for a quick trip down to the shops.
ROUND THE BENZ
But for that, Adebayor uses his souped-up Mercedes-Benz people carrier.
The motor features leather La-Z-Boy seating, curtains on the windows, an arm rest between the back two chairs and stands for his phone and iPad.
Smiling happily inside for one photo, Adebayor captioned the snap: “On my way to town for some quick shopping.”
Should he fancy something different then the Togo star can whip out his Mercedes-Benz G65 SUV, which starts from around £170,000.
With a handcrafted AMG 6.0L V12 and 621hp, the impressive all-terrain beast packs a serious punch.
But Adebayor is more than willing to share his cars and his cash.
GENEROUS ADEBAYOR
It was reported that in 2012 the former Real Madrid striker gave away a Range Rover – said to be worth six figures – to his close mate and comedian Funny Face.
This year for his birthday, Adebayor told his pal that he could have pretty much whatever he wanted.
Adebayor wrote in a gushing Instagram post: “I would like you to go to the nearest Access Bank in Accra, there is a blank cheque waiting.
“It’s for you to write any amount on it.
“Please remember we promised not to finish each other’s money, so be reasonable.”
A FINE COLLECTION
So keen is Adebayor on cars that he even has traffic jams at his home!
He uploaded a photo to his Instagram showing a line of cars at his house.
And, though it cannot be confirmed if they were all his, he owns so many motors he might consider installing some traffic lights.
