Ronaldo, Beckham and the £1.5 million car

December 8, 2008

In the ninth of a 12 part series, Adrian Hearn looks at the biggest car stories of September 2008.

Ronaldo’s Bentley Continental for sale

As mentioned in the August round-up, Cristiano Ronaldo bought the registration plate CR7 for his Bentley Continental. 

But he decided to buy a Bentley Continental GTC Speed to wear the £150,000 plate – making his old GTC surplus to requirements.

With the sale and purchase of the Bentleys and his August escapades, we figured Ronaldo was involved in £700,000 worth of automotive dealings in one months.
