Former India captain Virat Kohli is one of the richest cricketers in the world right now. So it’s not surprising when stories about the luxurious cars and other vehicles he owns goes viral. Kohli, now 33, has become ‘mature’ and ‘practical’, and that is why, he ended up selling most of those cars.
During an interaction, when the presenter asked Kohli on RCB Bold Diaries about his impulsive buys, the former RCB captain replied: “Most of the cars I owned. They were all impulsive buys. I ended up hardly driving them or actually traveling in them.
“Beyond a point, I felt that is actually pointless. Ended up selling most of them. Now we use what we absolutely need to. I think it is also part of growing up, becoming more aware and mature about things, that you don’t feel like owning toys or stuff like that. For us it’s about being practical and what’s of use.”
As per several reports, Kohli owns Audi A8 L W12, a Bentley Continental GT, Land Rover Vogue, Bentley Flying Spur, and many more. But it’s not known which cars he sold and which ones he kept.
