Karim Benzema's amazing R140m car collection

Former Real Madrid star Karim Benzema has amassed a car collection that is worth over £6 million (R140 million). 

The Ballon D'Or winner has had a sparkling career, conquering Europe and now finds himself taking on a new challenge in Saudi Arabia where he is reportedly earning a yearly salary of £84 million (R1.9 billion).

The success he has achieved over an illustrious football career has afforded him the opportunity to collect a range of stunning cars. 

The French talisman is reported to own a Bugatti Chiron, a Ferrari 458 Spider, a Mercedes Benz-SLR, a BMW M5 and many more. 

The prices of the cars in his collection is mind blowing. For instance, the Bugatti Chiron is valued at around a whopping £2.75 million (R65 million) and a Ferrari 458 Spider would put you back £179,000 (R4.2 million). One can only fathom how much Benzema spent to build his awesome collection. 

Benzema does not seem to mind spoiling himself. Whether it's a new set of wheels, a designer bag or some fresh drip. The 19 time Champions League participant can always be seen wearing or driving luxurious things. 

Benzema's time in Saudi has not been all sunshine and rainbows. The Former Madrid man is reportedly uncomfortable in his new environment. He joined his former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Pro League and had a resounding welcome. 

However, things seem to have taken a turn for the worst. The relationship between Benzema and Al Ittihad coach Nuno Espírito Santo has reportedly soured after Santo refused to give the Frenchman the captain's armband. Santo also reportedly feels that Benzema does not fit in to his plans for the team.
