The first car Daniel ever got was a Toyota Hilux in 2006. “My first car, a Toyota Hilux, was a gift from my parents. I think they realized a pick-up truck is quite slow”. He used to practices his driving in his dad’s Mini Cooper S and he got his driving license with it.

Ricciardo’s car collection

The first car he ever splashed money on was a Porsche 918 Spyder. The car has a horsepower of 875bhp and it goes from 0 to 62mph in just 6.2 seconds. Considered as an extremely high-speed car, Ricciardo said “but everything feels kind of slow after an F1 car”

Ricciardo has a property in Monaco where he keeps a Porsche GT3 RS. He also keeps a Vespa scooter there. The Porsche is another extremely amazing car with a high functioning turbo engine. The revs of the car itself are enough to lure a car fanatic.

In 2018, Daniel bought a Ford F-150 Raptor. The car is a pickup truck that takes him back to his younger days when used to drive Hilux. He kept this in America at a friend’s house.

“When I’m driving to and from Renault F1 in Oxfordshire, I can choose from a pool of cars. If I’m chilling with my music, I might take the keys to a Renault Kadjar, which is an SUV. If I want some fun, then the Mégane R.S. is really grippy.” Ricciardo said. Megane R.S. was another one of the fanatic’s purchases for the personal collection.
