      The Real Madrid shotstopper, 31, has come a long way since the first car he owned, a Ford Focus.
      After trading that in for a Aston Martin Vanquish, when he hit the big time, the giant Belgium goalkeeper has added some incredible motors to his fleet.
      He had to wait two years for his customised Porsche to made to his specifications, which ended up costing £350,000.
      Courtois is also a fan of Ferrari, as well as Lamborghini.

      While he has taken his love of fast motors to the professional circuit and owns a Formula 4 team.
      Porsche 992 GT3 RS, £350,000
      After two years of waiting, Courtois was handed the keys of this stunning Porsche.
      He parted with £350,000 for the custom-built 992 GT3 RS, which has a top speed of 198mph and can go from 0-60mph in 3.14 seconds.
      Incredibly, the base model costs £212,000, but Courtois added £137,000 worth of extras.

      The motor even has Courtois’ signature painted on a door sill.
      Car website KRN Speed raved: “This is more delicious than Belgian chocolate.
      “Courtois has owned some pretty amazing cars over the years, but never something extraordinary like a specially commissioned 3 RS.”
      Lamborghini Urus, £188,000
      The Urus is now the go-to for any self-respecting footballer.
      There once was a huge waiting list for them, but that didn’t stop the likes of Marcus Rashford, Jack Grealish and more splashing the cash on them.
      Courtois is no different, joining football’s elite by owning the stunning SUV.
      Incredibly, it can hit 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds.

      Ferrari Roma, £200,000
      The Ferrari Roma Spider is a design classic.
      It boats a a turbocharged V8 engine, a 2+2 seating arrangement, and is based on the Portofino model.
      Courtois showed his off in 2021, when arriving at the Valdebebas to train.
      It has a top speed of 199 plus, as well as a hefty price tag.

      Mercedes AMG G63, £190,000
      Standing at 6ft7in tall, Courtois could do with some leg room when it comes to what he rides in.
      Which is why his spacious G-Wagon is the perfect car for him.
      It is, without doubt, the finest SUV on the market. Certainly one of the most luxurious.
      Regular G63’s come with a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V-8 engine that makes 577 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque.
      The 0-62 mph varies from 4.5 seconds to 6.4 seconds.

      Aston Martin Vanquish, £200,000
      Maybe Courtois learned a thing or two from former teammate for club and country, Eden Hazard.
      The ex-Chelsea playmaker owned a Vanquish – a ultimate gentleman’s car.
      James Bond star Daniel Craig once owned a limited edition version, which was sold at an auction for £344,000.
      The successor to the Vantage series, it’s capable of reaching 0-62 mph in just 3.5 seconds.
      It also featured in the Bond film Die Another Day.

      His first motor
      Footballers can own the most pitiful first cars. But Courtois got himself a decent runner.
      As a youth star he drove a sensible Ford Focus, which today cost around £29,000 for the sporty model.
      A winner of multiple awards through the years, they have a great reputation.
      They are also used as touring cars in motorsport, and some can reach speeds of up to 155 mph.

      TC Racing
      In 2023, Courtois launched his own racing team in Formula 4.
      He called, rather unoriginally, TC Racing. But to be fair, not many footballers back up their petrolhead credentials by establishing a race car team.
      Joining forces with Roberto Merhi, a Spanish driver who raced in Japan’s Super GT and F1 back in 2015, they plan on focusing on talent development.
      Belgium international Courtois posted a promotional film for the team on Instagram, announcing: “Here we are.”
      He has yet to nominate TC Racing’s drivers for the 2024 season.

      F1 legend Hamilton shows off his Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe worth around £177k
      He has been paid an astonishing £350million by Mercedes, who he signed for in 2013.
      But, it could be the end of an era. The 39-year-old is reportedly poised to complete a sensational switch to Ferrari and team up with Charles Leclerc ahead of the 2025 season.
      Hamilton’s epic wealth has allowed to enjoy a lifestyle to envy.
      And cars are most certainly his passion – with a garage of supercars worth around £13MILLION.
      Read more on Lewis Hamilton
      Hamilton is a self-confessed car fanatic, who collects everything from the latest supercars to vintage classics and even electric vehicles.
      He said previously: “I don’t know anything about wine. I don’t know a huge amount about art.
      “But what I do know is cars, and I’m very particular about them.”
      Here we take a look at just some of his extravagant collection:
      Most read in Motorsport
      PAGANI ZONDA 760 LH
      The rarest motor in Hamilton owned was his £1.6m Pagani Zonda that was made entirely for him.
      The exterior and interiors are purple, and at the request of the sports star he opted for a manual gearbox instead of the usual sequential one.
      His reasons? Because he hated getting behind the wheel of it initially.
      He once said: “The Zonda is terrible to drive!
      “It’s the best-sounding car I own, but handling-wise it’s the worst.”
      That could be why in 2015 Hamilton got in an accident that caused some significant damage to the cherished motor.
      Hamilton reportedly sold the motor in 2022.

      1966 SHELBY 427 COBRA
      The highest valued car in Hamilton’s collection is this stunning classic.
      Believed to be worth around £4m, it’s a rare sight – unless you’ve seen the racer cruising along the Pacific Coast Highway in LA.
      Hamilton was often spied taking his ex-missus Nicole Scherzinger for a spin in this beauty, which had him standing out from the crowd.

      LAFERRARI
      Every car aficionado worth their weight in salt owns this £2m Ferrari – another collector’s item that rises in value as the years go by.
      Capable of reaching a top speed of 217 mph, the LaFerrari can hit 0-62 mph in just 2.4 seconds, meaning it’s the fastest car Hamilton owns.
      Footballers including Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Son Heung-min also drive this frighteningly fast motor that must feel like handling a racing car.

      MERCEDES-AMG PROJECT ONE
      Lewis got his hands on a Project One in 2021, even though it wasn’t released until 2022.
      He was heavily involved in the production of the plug-in hybrid sports car that’s capable of hitting a top speed of 217 mph.
      Only 275 were made, and they cost around £2m.
      Getting his hands on one was one of the many perks of his deal with Mercedes.

      MERCEDES-AMG SLS BLACK
      He already owned a SL Black Series, so why not add the SLS, right?
      Hamilton, who clearly has a need for speed, added this supercar to his garage probably because it’s the fastest Mercedes in production.
      Powered by a 6.2-litre V8 engine that produces 622bhp – the SLS can reach a top speed of 196 mph.
      It also hits 0-60 in just 3 seconds – making it the ideal car for Hamilton to get his thrills off the track with. For a price tag of £230k, it’s just what you’d expect really.

      MCLAREN P1
      Despite splitting with McLaren’s racing team, Hamilton can’t have felt too aggrieved with his former employers. In 2015, he added a £2m P1 to his extensive list of rides.
      The P1 has a 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine, which is twinned with an electric motor that means the supercar has a total power and torque output of 903 bhp and 980 Nm of torque.
      In real talk that means it’s fast and powerful, can hit a top speed of 217 mph and hits 0-60 mph in just under 2.7 seconds.

      1967 FORD MUSTANG SHELBY GT500
      The second classic car that’s part of his fleet, fans of the Hollywood movie Gone In 60 Seconds might recognise this motor as looking to similar to one of the Eleanor models from the film.
      Hamilton had his customised by Oklahoma-based car shoop Classic Recreations for additional cost.
      At auctions, they can fetch up to £750k, and you can bet Hamilton’s is in tip-top condition. That said, we doubt he’ll ever sell it.
      BEST OF THE REST
      When the Mercedes-Maybach 6 came out in 2016, Hamilton made sure he got his hands on the concept car.
      The 2×2 coupe is completely electric, and can run up to 200 miles before it’ll need recharging.
      Hamilton also has another Mercedes – the Maybach S600, which is a luxurious chauffeur’s car with a partition separating the front seats from the back.
      Both those motors have a combined worth of around £800k.
      And Hamilton doesn’t mind swapping four wheels for two – sometimes taking his £6,500 Honda CRF450RX Motocross Bike around the dirt tracks of California.

      Then there’s also his Maverick X3 dune buggy that would’ve set him back around £20k, that’s also electric in theme with his eco-warrior status.
      However, with a switch to Ferrari imminent – imagine the company cars he’s got lined up?

      The right-back got himself a Huracan, which he was seen driving to training in his first few weeks at the club.

      Walker, along with England pal Raheem Sterling, were just two of the first in line.
      The Bentayga was Bentley’s first foray into the SUV market – and it’s a beautiful car.

      SunSport looks into how Walker lives his life.
      Stunning home
      Walker, originally from Sheffield, splashed some of his fortune on a property in Cheshire in 2019.
      It boasts six bedrooms, and was bought as a love nest for him and childhood sweetheart Annie Kilner, before their marriage woes.
      It features a swimming pool, a sizeable marble hot tub, as well as a five-a-side football pitch.
      Most read in Football
      Back in 2020, demanding more privacy, Walker built a 13ft-high, 52ft-wide screen around the property so passers-by couldn’t see inside.
      He won a planning battle, after neighbours complained – calling the structure “unsightly”.
      Walker often shared glimpses of the home on Instagram to his five million followers.
      That included a snap of him watching football on a plush sofa with framed football jerseys on the wall.
      Another photo showed him wearing an apron in the kitchen.
      Keen gamer Walker also showed off where he liked to play Fortnite in a separate picture.

      Walker’s baby mama Lauryn Goodman
      Walker, who earns around £160,000-per-week at the Etihad, bought a £2,5million seaside mansion for his baby mama Lauryn Goodman.
      Amazing cars
      Over the years, Walker has prided himself on filling his garage with some stylish cars.
      In his first season as a Man City player in 2017, he was seen driving a £235,000 Lamborghini Huracan to training.
      One of the fastest cars on the planet, it’s capable of reaching 0-62 mph in just 2.9 seconds.
      It wasn’t the only Lambo parked in the car park – with former teammate Sergio Aguero also being a fan of the supercar and owning one.
      A fan of sporty cars, in 2019 he was seen behind the wheel of a brilliant Mercedes AMG-GT R that has a starting price of £160,000.
      They can reach a top speed of 198 mph and run off a M178 twin-turbo 4-litre V8 engine.
      Another luxury car Walker enjoyed was his £200,000 Bentley Bentayga.
      That became a footballers’ favourite – with fellow England footballer Raheem Sterling also owning a Bentayga.

      Other motors Walker has been spotted with are Mercedes S-Class (from £92,000), and has also driven into training in a £115,000 Audi RS7.
      Tattoos
      Walker is no stranger to getting ink.
      His first ever tattoo was his name, K. Walker with a star next to it.
      However, amusingly he had a second star added next to it after his pals ribbed him that he gave himself such a low rating.
      Walker also has an eye tattoo on his forearm in loving memory of his late grandfather, who introduced him to football.
      He said: “I got this eye for my grandad, who took me to Sheffield United and got me into football. He passed away.
      “I got the eye to say he’s always looking down on me and he guides me through a lot.”

      However, the car manufacturer GM stopped making the Army-inspired SUVs in 2010.
      That’s now made the Hummer a collector’s item, which Pacquiao will be well aware of.
      Although he bought his bulletproof vehicle for protection for himself and his family in the Philippines.
