Get your hands on Gazza’s BMW

Want a car owned by one of England’s greatest footballing talents? Auto Trader has Paul Gascoigne’s old BMW for sale for just £12,450.

Gazza was the first owner of this black 2001 BMW 320Ci Sport, which has been fitted with a full Breyton bodykit and 18-inch Breyton alloy wheels.

Powered by a 2.2-litre engine, the car produces 170bhp and 155lb/ft of pulling power. This enables the soft top to accelerate from 0-62mph (100kph) in 8.3 seconds before hitting a top speed of 140mph, while averaging 31.7mpg.

Inside, the convertible is equipped with an onboard computer, six-disc CD player, climate and cruise control and full black leather seats.

Other features on the German motor include traction control, parking sensors and a tracker.

The mercurial midfielder shot to fame in the 1990 World Cup, where he famously cried after being booked in the semi-final against West Germany.

His career was blighted by injuries, but he once again starred for England in Euro ’96, where he scored one of the goals of the tournament against Scotland, with the three lions beating the Auld enemy 2-0.

Gazza played for Tottenham Hotspur, Lazio and Glasgow Rangers, while scoring ten times in his 57 games for England.

Following in the footsteps of other sports stars such as Vinnie Jones, Gazza is now trying to forge an acting career and is set to star in the action sci-fi Final Run later this year.

Sadquat Basharat, from Top Cars is selling Gazza's old BMW. He said: "I've sold cars owned by David Beckham and Ronnie O'Sullivan - it certainly adds desirability to the car.

"The BMW is a real eye-catcher and performs brilliantly."

You can get your hands on Gazza’s old car – which comes with a full BMW service history – and has covered 80,000 miles.
