THE fastest man in the world is hard to beat – but his car collection far outranks him in terms of speed.

Usain Bolt’s diverse garage boasts an abundance of luxury vehicles, and with a net worth of over £70million, it’s sure to keep expanding – let’s take a look at his impressive collection.

Bolt’s choice for an off-road vehicle cost him around £230,000 due to it’s impressive custom features.

The 285 horse power engine can go from 0 to 60mph in only 8.2 seconds – a standard 2017 Jeep is only able to achieve that in 7.5 seconds.

In addition to a killer engine, he suspended the wheels three inches and added 22 inch alloy wheels.

The matte black paint job makes this vehicle sleek, and the interior leather seats are made in the colour of his native Jamaica’s flag.

With a price tag of £158,000, the modern coup comes with leather seats and a shiny paint job.

It also reaches speeds of almost 193mph, and has over 450 horsepower.

The black luxury BMW seems to be one of Bolt’s favourites after it was gifted to him by Puma.

The high speed car has 414 horsepower and is priced at £45,000 when he was given it in 2008.

The gold paint job on Bolt’s 2012 Nissan purchase is only one of three made by the company.

Bolt won this car after being signed by Nissan to promote the high speed sports car, estimated to cost around £120,000.

The engine has 600 horsepower, and can go from 0 to 60mph in only 2.9 seconds, with top speeds of 195mph.

Usain Bolt isn’t the only big name celeb to have an insane car collection – Britney Spears has amassed an impressive collection of luxury cars throughout her career using her astounding $70million fortune.
