Erling Haaland was a passenger in Monaco’s most famous Bugatti and has his own garage Wilder

Monaco is not a city that is easily impressed by supercars. Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Bugattis cruise its streets with such regularity that most locals barely glance at them. Erling Haaland still managed to attract the crowd.

Manchester City The striker was recently filmed as a passenger in a Bugatti Chiron driving through the streets of Monaco, with viewers capturing the moment as he drove off.

He wasn’t driving, but his company fit in pretty well. Someone in Haaland’s circle was driving a Chiron through Monaco one casual afternoon.

However, Chiron is only the beginning of the story.

Holland’s garage is built around exclusivity

Haaland’s car collection is estimated to be worth around $17 million AUD, and looks less like a footballer’s garage and more like a short list of the most technologically obsessed machines produced in the last decade.

The centerpiece is the Mercedes-AMG One, a road car built around genuine Formula 1 technology. Only 275 examples exist worldwide, and prices sit comfortably above $4.9 million AUD. This is not a car that you can order easily. This is the kind of car that Mercedes offers to a very exclusive list of people, and Haaland is clearly included in it.

Next up is the Ferrari Monza SP2, a roofless speedster based on Ferrari’s racing history of the 1950s. Like the AMG One, it is reserved for Ferrari’s most loyal customers, not just anyone who can afford the asking price.

Haaland has also been linked to a Mercedes-Maybach S680 by Virgil Abloh, one of only 150 built, as well as a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, an Aston Martin DBX707, a Porsche 911 GT3 and an Audi RS6 Avant for those occasions when something vaguely sensible is required.

A garage built around engineering, not just location

What separates Haaland’s collection from the average footballer’s car list is not the price. Many athletes spend serious money on cars. The difference is what he chooses.

The AMG ONE exists because Mercedes wanted to put an F1 powertrain on public roads. The Monza SP2 is one of Ferrari’s most distinctive modern creations.

The GT3 and RS6 are enthusiast favorites rather than obvious status plays. Even the everyday options suggest someone who reads the spec sheet as carefully as the sticker price.

Haaland may only be 25 years old, but his car collection is already notable. His new Manchester City contract has reportedly made him one of football’s highest earners, so the collection is unlikely to stop growing any time soon.
