Inside Venom star Tom Hardy’s insane car collection – including £150k Audi R8 supercar

WITH a fortune of around £15million, it's no surprise that Venom star Tom Hardy has amassed an insane car collection - including a £150,000 Audi R8 supercar.

The hard man actor, 45, flew a Spitfire in Dunkirk and drove a juggernaut in Mad Max: Fury Road - but his own garage includes a number of luxury motors.

Hardy owns a £150,000 matt black Audi R8 Spyder, which goes from 0-60mph in 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 201mph.

The two-seater Audi supercar has quick-shifting seven-speed DCT transmission and four-wheel Quattro AWD.

Its 5.2 litre V10 engine generates 602hp of power and 413lb-ft of torque.

Other famous R8 owners include Prince William, Virat Kohli, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Daniel Craig, Neymar and Lady Gaga.

Hardy, who bought the R8 in 2012 for The Dark Knight Rises premiere, is something of an Audi devotee.

He also owns a red Audi RS5 convertible, which he bought in 2013 after he was reportedly spotted test-driving it in bad weather with the roof down.

The £60,000 RS5 can reach up to 174mph, with a powerful V6 engine.

Like the RS8, it comes with Audi's legendary Quattro AWD system - making for smooth handling at breakneck speed.

Perhaps the most glamorous of Hardy's cars is his vintage Porsche 930 Turbo, complete with classic touches like tombstone seats, floor-hinged pedals and a rear engine with rear-wheel drive.

Produced between 1975 and 1989, the 930 Turbo was Porsche's top-of-the-range 911 model.

It comes with a 3.0 litre air-cooled turbo-charged H6 engine and five-speed transmission.

Before Hardy, the most famous owner of a 930 Turbo was "King of Cool", The Great Escape star and Porsche superfan Steve McQueen - to whom Hardy has often been compared by action film connoisseurs.

Hardy also reportedly owns a 1992 low-bodied Cadillac Seville - but the exact inventory of his garage is unknown.

Here's everything you need to know about Wayne Rooney's car collection.
