David Beckham's Lamborghini from his Real Madrid career is up for auction with 'remarkably low mileage'

An opportunity has come on the market for car enthusiasts looking for a vehicle with a unique history. This eye-catching Lamborghini owned by David Beckham is up for auction and could be yours - for a hefty price.

The footballing legend bought the brand-new 2004 Lamborghini Gallardo during his time at Real Madrid.

The former England captain owned the car for at least four years, importing it back to the UK after his time ended at the Spanish team and registering it at his London address.

The car's unique paint job and 'remarkably low mileage' make it a catch for those looking for something special.

Ed Callow of Collecting Cars auctioneers explains: "The Gallardo price new was likely to have been around £150,000; equivalent to circa £280,000 in today’s money.

"In this auction, I would not be surprised to see the car make as much as £130,000, given its remarkably low mileage and unbeatable celebrity provenance."

The Gallardo was supplied new via Lamborghini Madrid and has only 4,101 miles on the clock.

With a top speed of 192 mph, the Lambo is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V10, delivering 500PS to all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shift.

Ed Callow adds: "It is ready to be enjoyed as a thrilling and highly engaging weekend toy, and would make a superb addition to a wider assembly of supercars."

Beckham played four seasons with Real Madrid, winning the La Liga championship in his final season with the club.

The auction closes for bids in the evening of Thursday 5 October.
