The England ace, 23, opened up to British Vogue about the everyday things he still can’t do, admitting: “I can’t cook, I can’t drive… I’ m good at what I do, but everything else? Not that great.”
In the interview, Bellingham revealed he still does not hold a full driving licence. He said he tried to learn while playing for Borussia Dortmund in Germany, but struggled because he “couldn’t read the road signs.”
Instead, the Real Madrid midfielder is driven to training and matches by friends and family — often spotted in the passenger seat while others take the wheel.
That hasn’t stopped him building one of football’s most eye-catching garages.
The BMW Company Cars
As part of Real Madrid’s partnership with BMW, Bellingham has access to a fleet of the German manufacturer’s flagship models.
BMW XM Label — £155,000
Most recently seen with Bellingham in the passenger seat, the XM Label is BMW M’s most powerful road-legal production model ever built. It pairs a 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 petrol engine with an electric motor and can hit 0-62 mph in just 3.8 seconds.
His club teammate Kylian Mbappé also has one in his fleet.
BMW i7 xDrive60 — £115,000
Bellingham and his family have been frequently spotted around Madrid in the i7 xDrive60, BMW’s flagship electric saloon. It reaches a top speed of around 149 mph, with some models featuring an optional 31.3-inch 8K BMW Theatre Screen.
Perfect, as the report notes, if Bellingham wants to sit back and relax during the ride.
BMW iX M60 — £122,000
Another fully electric motor, the iX M60’s dual electric motors generate up to 619 hp and 1,100 Nm of torque in launch control mode. It also does 0-62 mph in 3.8 seconds, with a real-world range of 250-320 miles on a full charge.
The Personal Supercars Lamborghini Urus Performante — £209,000
The crown jewel of the collection — and the fastest car in it. The Urus Performante has a top speed of 190 mph, reaches 0-62 mph in just 3.3 seconds, and produces 657 horsepower.
It’s a hugely popular choice among the England squad, with Jordan Pickford also owning a Urus.
Mercedes-AMG G63 — £180,000
The iconic G-Wagon remains one of football’s most popular cars. Its 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine delivers 585 hp and 850 Nm of torque, taking it from 0-62 mph in 4.4 seconds.
Range Rover Autobiography LWB — £125,000
This special-edition Range Rover combines executive rear-seat legroom with high-end performance and off-road capability, with 23-inch alloy wheels, electronic air suspension and a Meridian Signature Surround Sound system.
Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe — £150,000
Rounding out the reported collection is a top-of-the-range Mercedes mid-size SUV, with Nappa leather upholstery, a panoramic sliding sunroof, heated and cooled cup holders, and a 15-speaker, 710-watt Burmester 3D surround sound system.
The Passenger Prince
The contrast has not gone unnoticed by fans. A recent viral compilation contrasting footballers arriving in supercars ended with Bellingham arriving by taxi in Madrid — a moment commenters turned into a running joke about his lack of a licence, with many noting his mother or brother often drive him instead.
For now, the £40m-rated star seems content to let others do the driving — while his garage does all the talking.
