An Audi R8 previously owned by England and Bolton Wanderers star Zat Knight is for sale on Auto Trader. The star defender was the first owner of the 2008 Audi R8 FSI Quattro, which packs a 420bhp 4.2-litre V8 engine.
The German supercar is capable of sprinting from 0-62mph in 4.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 187mph.
It comes fitted with 19-inch alloys, full black leather interior, heated seats, sat-nav, sun protection glass, a tracking device, all-round park distance control and a Bang and Olufsen sound system.
Zat Knight's Audi R8 is advertised for sale by T20 of Manchester, for £71,995. The R8 has done just 4,000 miles and the price includes a full Audi warranty.
Knight began his career at Fulham at the age of 17. After 150 appearances over eight years, he signed for Villa - the club he supported as a boy - in a £3.5 million deal.
In July 2009, he signed a three-year contract with Bolton Wanderers for a reported £4 million. He scored his first goal for the side last month in a crucial 1-0 win against Wolverhampton, which lifted the Wanderers out of the relegation zone.
Since going on sale in 2007, the Audi R8 has been a popular purchase among the rich and famous. Owners include Cheryl Cole, Simon Cowell, Cristiano Ronaldo, Stephen Ireland, Robbie Fowler, Jay Leno, Robert Downey Jr, Gary Barlow and David Hasselhoff.
