Blackburn Rovers' striker rides a £420,000 chrome SLR McLaren
Naveen | May 16 2009

Last year, a chromed out Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren was spotted on the roads of Dubai and lately, one super-shiny SLR McLaren has been seen in Manchester, England. The guy behind the wheel was El Hadji Diouf, who plays for Blackburn Rovers Football Club, an English Premier League football club based in the town of Blackburn, Lancashire. He has spent a whopping £420,000 (US $636,750) on the blinged-up Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. The playmaker is an avid car collector and has been seen previously driving Range Rovers, Lincoln Navigators and Cadillac Escalades. Anyway, he is not the only football player to have owned this chromed beauty. Arsenal defender William Gallas and former Chelsea midfielder Claude Makelele also own the same-styled car that can do 0-60mph in 3.6 seconds before reaching a top speed of 207mph.
