As if Leicester City fans didn’t have enough reasons to celebrate with their team winning the Premier League title, now they can even buy a 2013 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe that used to belong to the club’s top striker.
The current owner of the car is selling it privately on Auto Trader, and at the moment at which he bought it, Vardy and his team were fighting relegation in the Premiership.
Apparently, the car even comes with a number of football grounds programmed into its Sat Nav, along with a dance album that was left in the CD player.
Danny Sangster, the car’s current owner, said that “What Leicester City have achieved this season has been nothing short of incredible, and it’s been brilliant driving around in a car that I know was previously owned by arguably the country’s best footballer this season.”
“But I know there might be a Leicester City fan who would treasure this car as a piece of motoring history – so that’s why I chosen to put it for display on the UK’s largest car marketplace in hope of finding that person.”
With a 6.3-liter V8 engine underneath its bonnet, this 457 BHP Mercedes can hit 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.4 seconds before maxing out at an electronically limited 155 mph (250 km/h). It also comes with decent safety features such Blind Spot Assist and Lane Keeping Assist.
Vardy’s former C63 has just over 14,000 miles (22,530 km) on the clock and the seller is claiming he only drove it on weekends.
