You would expect that professional UK football players (that’s what soccer is called in these parts of the globe) would prefer the latest exotic sports car for their commute to and from the practice and you would be right; but apparently they also love compact SUVs and more specifically the Range Rover Evoque.

The smallest Range Rover leads the Top 10 list with the most popular cars bought by Premiership football players, leaving much more expensive ones, like the Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari F12 and Bentley Continental GT, behind.

The list was compiled by UK vehicle finance experts JBR Capital, who found out than other than the relatively affordable Range Rover Evoque, UK’s Premiership football players don’t hold back when it comes to buying a new car.

1. Range Rover Evoque
2. Lamborghini Aventador
3. Mercedes-Benz Onyx G6 GLE Coupe
4. Bentley Continental GT
5. Ferrari F12 Berlinetta
6. Lamborghini Huracan
7. Jeep Wrangler Kahn Sahara
8. Porsche 911 GTS
9. Bentley Bentayga
10. McLaren 675LT Spider

As you can see, the list contains all the usual suspects plus some models created by tuning companies, like the Mercedes-Benz Onyx G6 GLE Coupe and the Jeep Wrangler Kahn Sahara.
