David Becham (Beckham) is headed off to the United States. He accepted an offer of around $1 million per week from the Major League Soccer team, Los Angeles Galaxy. It’s time to look at David Becham’s large luxury car collection.
David Becham (Beckham) has so many cars that in fact the chairman of Ferrari offered him one of their cars in 2005 but David turned the offer down. David Becham (Beckham) owns at least seven cars which includes a custom built Ferrari, a Porsche 911, a Range Rover, a Jaguar, a Bentley, and a Rolls-Royce Phantom (over $300,000). One of David’s first notable cars was a 1996 BMW M3, which he owned when we has a moderately well-known star of the Manchester United squad. He later sold this car for $180,000 on eBay. The exact model, not owned by Becham (Beckham), recently sold for only $20,000. You could purchase a brand new BMW M3 for well under the weekly wage of your average NBA star.
David Becham (Beckham) always parks his fleet in restricted, valeted parking bays. One of his more recent purchases was a $210,000 Lamborghini Gallardo. David keeps a few sensible cars though, including a Mercedes S500 and a Bentley Arnage, which he used to pick up his OBE from the Queen at Buckingham Palace in 2004. The Bentley Arnage comes complete with leather baby-seats. David and Victoria did not want their children to be left out so for Christmas last year Brooklyn was given a $41,000 Hummer H2 car. They snatched up a scaled-down version of the vast US 4×4 owned by his father. Brooklyn apparently loves to imitate his dad.
David Becham (Beckham) bought a $100,000 H2 only recently, and added $32,000 worth of luxury options. Victoria apparently spotted the scaled-down version while Christmas shopping in Harrods and thought it would be perfect for the five-year-old. A source said: “Brooklyn loves being like his dad. If David gets a new haircut he wants the same style. And having the same car is another way to be as cool as dad. He gets really excited when his dad buys a new car and always wants to copy him.” David and Victoria Becham (Beckham) love treating the boys. As soon as Victoria saw the Hummer she knew it would be the perfect gift for her son. The scaled-down H2 joins a scaled-down BMW Z4, Ferrari and a Porsche in Brooklyn’s bedroom.
David Becham (Beckham) has had his fair share of car trouble; following an alleged kidnap attempt, he purchased an armoured BMW X5 SUV in Madrid, only to have it stolen. He bought another one, and it was stolen as well; it was recovered recently in Macedonia, apparently being driven by Bulgarian people-traffickers. David certainly hopes his motoring becomes uneventful Los Angeles.
