Rashford loves moving around in heavy machinery and the Mercedes that he sped with cost him a whopping £670,000 (Sh101.5 million).

He has however sold the same car at a lower price after some verified sources stated that the forward put the machine on sale at half the price that he acquired it.

Rashford recently acquired a £280,000 (Sh42.4 million) McLaren 765 Long Tail sports car and a £390,000 (Sh59 million) Black Badge Cullinan Rolls Royce according to The Sun.

Rashford has been in great form at Manchester and he has managed to score in six consecutive matches for his club at Old Trafford.
