more than 10 million euros, on the other… a simple Toyota Yaris hybrid. At the wheel, the same person: Fernando Alonso. His garage looks less like a reasonable collection than a rolling museum where futuristic hypercars, legendary Ferraris and ultra-sober city cars intersect, according to Car and Driver.

Double F1 world champion, winner of the WEC and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Spaniard has been based in Monaco for several years. Between the security of the principality and the daily presence of carspotters armed with their objectives, the
Fernando Alonso car collection is revealed little by little. And the more the seasons pass, the more we discover that his taste for cars goes well beyond simple company cars loaned by brands…

A collection of Fernando Alonso cars between hypercars and legendary Ferraris

At the very top of the basket, Fernando Alonso has the closest thing to an F1 car approved for the road: theAston Martin Valkyrie. This monster combines a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter Cosworth V12 and an electric motor to achieve 1 160 chin a car limited to only 150 copies and billed from
3 million euros. We saw him both in the streets of Monaco and on the circuit, helmet on his head in a tiny cabin.

The other very personal piece is theAston Martin
Valiant
developed from the Valor after the driver asked the brand for a version that was “lighter, more fun, more powerful, sportier and with a design inspired by racing cars”. Result: a 5.3-liter twin-turbo V12 of
745 cha six-speed manual gearbox and radical aerodynamics. Initially planned as a one-off for Alonso, this model was finally produced at 38 units at the price of approximately 2.33 million eurosincluding a brass-colored example in his garage.

The Spaniard has also kept a strong link with Ferrari. He has a Ferrari LaFerrari black with red details, the brand’s first hybrid model, combining a 6.2-liter V12
800 ch and an electric motor 163

either 963 ch in total. Produced at only 499 copies for an initial price of 1.3 million euros, it now exceeds 3 to 4 million euros on the market. Next to it sit absolute classics: a Ferrari F40 (478 hp biturbo V8, 1,311 units, current value between 2.5 and more than 3 million euros) and a Ferrari 512 TRevolution of the Testarossa with 4.9 liter V12 428 chcapable of 313 km/h and estimated at around 260,000 euros in good condition.

In terms of pure exclusivity, the prize undoubtedly goes to

GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition
special edition tribute to the victory of the GT40 at Le Mans 1966, with 3.5 liter twin-turbo V6
660 ch and a value which “easily exceeds one million euros”. Fernando Alonso also offered himself a
Mercedes SLR McLaren 722 Editionlimited series of 150 units, whose supercharged 5.5-liter V8 climbs to
650 ch. About it, he explained: “I think it’s the most beautiful car in the world,” confided Fernando Alonso, quoted by Car and Driver.

From the DBX707 to the Toyota Yaris: the (almost) normal daily life of Fernando Alonso

It’s not all extreme in Alonso’s collection. He is often seen at the wheel of a Aston Martin

personalized with logo and details dedicated to the driver, powered by a four-cylinder turbo of 252 or 300 hp for a price which goes “between 70,000 and 330,000 euros” depending on the version. Alpine even launched a series A110 R Fernando Alonso limited to 32 copies, although there is no indication that he kept one.

And then there is the surprise: a very simple Toyota
Yaris
hybrid. Far from the seven-figure hypercars, this 3.9 m long model displays 116 hp, an announced consumption of 3.9 l/100 km and an entry price around
21 775 euros. Carspotters filmed him driving this Yaris near the famous Monaco tunnel, with a ‘140S’ plate which leaves little doubt as to ownership. An important detail: in the principality, the cars that truly belong to it often bear a personalized plate with the number 14his favorite number in F1. Between a Lamborghini Sián hybrid of 819 ch produced at 63 copies for approximately 3.3 million euros and this modest city car, Fernando Alonso’s car collection tells as much about his excessive passion for exceptional machines as his desire, sometimes, to simply drive quietly and go under the radar.
