CRISTIANO RONALDO has admitted he’s officially lost count of how many cars he owns after adding a £3.2million Bugatti Tourbillon to his jaw dropping £22million collection.
The 40-year-old football icon, who was recently named the sport’s first billionaire, told Piers Morgan in a new interview that even he doesn’t know exactly how many supercars he has parked in his Saudi garage.
He laughed: “Honestly, I’ve lost count.
“If I had to bet, I’d say 40 or 41. I love the Bugattis, they’re different beasts.”
The new Bugatti Tourbillon is the latest addition to what’s become one of the world’s most valuable private car collections.
Ronaldo says he bought the £3.2million motor “as an investment”, though it’s unlikely he’ll ever have to worry about fuel money.

It means his car collection, which was estimated at around £19million last year, has now rocketed to £22million.
Ronaldo’s passion for fast cars began back when he joined Manchester United as a teenage sensation from Madeira.
His first big purchase was a £67,500 Porsche Cayenne, a far cry from the fleet of multimillion-pound machines he owns today.
He’s since been spotted behind the wheel of everything from Ferraris to Lamborghinis, with a few Audis thrown in thanks to his old club Real Madrid’s sponsorship deal.

During his time in Spain he drove an Audi RS5, R8 and S8, before upgrading again when he joined Juventus in 2018.
That’s when things went truly wild. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner splashed out £8.5million on a limited-edition Bugatti Centodieci, one of only ten in the world, capable of hitting a top speed of 236mph.
Ronaldo, who admits Bugatti is his favourite brand, also owns a £2million Chiron, a £1.5million Veyron and several Ferraris, including a £1.4million Monza and a £2million Daytona SP3.
His McLaren Senna (£750,000), Lamborghini Aventador (£270,000), Bentley Flying Spur (£250,000) and Ferrari 599 GTO (£500,000) are just a few of the other high-powered machines taking up space in his custom-built garage.
He’s even got a Mercedes G-Wagon Brabus worth £600,000, a present from his partner Georgina Rodriguez and three Rolls Royces.
A Cullinan (£300,000), a Phantom Drophead Coupe (£500,000) and a Dawn (£500,000) that Georgina bought him for his 36th birthday.
Ronaldo’s also partial to a few “cheaper” rides, including a Chevrolet Camaro worth £40,000 for family outings, plus a Bentley Continental GT, a Mercedes AMG GLE 63 and a blacked-out Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG.
Despite his love of luxury cars, Ronaldo says he rarely drives in Saudi Arabia because of the traffic.
He revealed that all Al-Nassr players have been gifted BMWs through the club’s sponsorship deal but he admitted he only occasionally takes his out after training.
The Portugal legend now lives with Georgina and their children in a lavish compound in Riyadh after leaving the Four Seasons hotel where he stayed when he first joined Al-Nassr on his £175million-a-year contract.
Fans got a rare look inside his new home during his chat with Piers Morgan, which was filmed in what appeared to be Ronaldo’s personal “man cave”, complete with brown leather sofas and memorabilia.

Morgan joked: “I love your man cave, but there’s one problem, where’s the Arsenal shirt I gave you?”
Ronaldo just grinned and who could blame him? When your garage is worth more than most Premier League clubs, keeping count probably isn’t your top priority.
