SOLD!

Fancy getting your hands on an England legend’s luxury BMW? Auto Trader has one for sale.

We’ve got a fully loaded BMW 745i owned by the prolific striker Jimmy Greaves, who was a member of England’s victorious 1966 World Cup-winning squad.

The 2003 Beemer features extras such as sat-nav, a TV and DVD player, fridge and a telephone, along with parking sensors and climate control.

Powered by a 4.5-litre, 333bhp V8, the 7-Series catapults from 0-62mph in 6.3 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 155mph.

Regarded by many as the nation’s best ever striker, Greaves is England’s third highest goal scorer of all time just behind Sir Bobby Charlton and Gary Lineker, having scored 44 goals in just 57 games.

Greavsie was England’s first choice striker for the World Cup, before suffering an injury against France in their final group game. His replacement Geoff Hurst became the Three Lions’ hero, scoring a hat trick against Germany in the final.

Jimmy Greaves' BMWThe former Tottenham Hotspur’s striker is just ahead of Michael Owen and Alan Shearer in the all-time goalscoring list, who have both had former cars for sale on the site in the last few weeks.

You can pick up the three-year-old model, which has covered 55,000 miles for £22,950.
