If you ask someone what was their favourite toy in the childhood, the answer most probably is going to be toy cars. And this does not change even when you become an adult, it's just that the toys get bigger and more expensive.

It is a dream of every child that one day he will buy the best of the cars. And one has to work day and night for a long long time to achieve that goal. The mere thought of having an expensive luxury car motivates one to work more arduously in life.

And once that dream is realized, every second of work done seems worth it. Because of all hard work is done, the car bought is extremely cherished and there is a deep attachment to that car.

There is no one in the world who does not like super expensive luxury cars and same is the case with the legends of the Indian cricket.

Let us take a look at the favourite cars of some of the Indian cricketers.


#1 Virat Kohli

The current captain of the Indian team is the proud owner of the limited edition Audi R8 LMX. One of the only 99 such cars ever manufactured makes it even more special. Just like his batting records, he does not settle for anything good, he wants the best of everything.

Kohli, the brand ambassador of Audi in India, bought the car for an exorbitant price of 3 Cr. rupees. Just like the price, its features are also super impressive. It comes with a V10 engine of 5.2 lt. capacity. The engine generates a power of 570 BHP.

The car is currently the fastest Audi R8 which can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/hr in just 3.4 seconds and can reach a top speed of 320 km/hr. The limited-edition Audi R8 LMX is the first car in India to come with laser high beam lighting.

#2 MS Dhoni

<p>

Everybody knows about the Dhoni's love for bikes but few people know that he adores his cars just as much.

Among his collection of cars, his favourite is the SUV Hummer H2. He is often seen driving his beloved car in his hometown, Ranchi.

The Hummer H2 is a huge car that was marketed by Hummer and was built by AM General. It was also nominated for the North American Truck of the Year award for 2003.

#3 Sachin Tendulkar

<p>

Sachin's love for speed is known to all and has a big collection of cars which included his former favourite, Ferrari. However, his new favourite car is the BMW i8. The stylish sports car looks surreal and is surely an attention grabber. The i8 is the only hybrid sports car launched in the country in this range. So, it does not have any direct rivals.

The Master Blaster, also the brand ambassador of BMW India, bought the car for a colossal price of 2.70 crore rupees. The i8 is powered by a combination of an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. The engine generates a power of 228 BHP. The i8 can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/hr in just 4.4 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. and fuel efficiency of 47.45kmpl. Its biggest highlight is certainly its mesmerizing design.

When in full flow Yuvi could make any legendary bowler look ordinary and same goes for his Lamborghini Murcielago that makes other cars just a regular car. Even though he owns many cars but this is the best of all. Also, the orange colour of the car gives it a distinctive look.

Yuvraj bought the sports car for a whopping price of 3.6 crore rupees. The car is loaded with tonnes of unique features.
