The Chris Evans car collection

I know its difficult to read about someone making lots of money if you have just lost your job but to all the people saying ' Evans is making money off our tax and licence fee' - I think everyone has forgotten that Chris actually made his money by forming his own production company (with his own money) to create shows like Dont forget your Toothbrush and TFI Friday - neither of which took BBC money. He then used that momey to buy Virgin radio and turn it from a tiny radio station into a much bigger one which he then sold. He has also bought an old pub/restaurant and makes money from that - plus his money from adverts. I'm sure he's well paid at the BBC but all the car money comes from all his previous money making ventures. Also, don't foget how many other millionaires would happily let other people drive his million pound Ferraris for Children in Need ?

Stephen Bailey........althou​gh I sympathise with your situation i feel that you're having a go at the wrong man. If you look at the article it is not a case of Chris Evans bragging about his car collection and how rich he is it is MSN showing his car collection. In fact out of the 21 cars listed only 6 show any mention of price paid or sold. Two of those he actually took quite a substantial loss on when he sold them (both jags) and one of the other mentions of money paid was because it was a british record price paid for a car a couple of years ago . The man has earned his money, is good at what he does, not to everyones taste but he certainly brightens up the mornings on radio 2, and, just like you and I, he is entitled to spend his earnings it on whatever he wants.

Enjoy yourself Chris. Keep spending that cash! 

Good for you Chris.  Get fed up with hearing moaning about how unfair that rich people can afford stuff which is out of reach for most folk, I say this - we all have the same opportunities in life - it is easy to sit back and snipe, get off your backsides and do something about it or be satisfied with what you have!!

good on him. he's worked hard he deserves it.

Met him in Scotland at a golf tournament one of the few stars willing to speak to ordinary punters so maybe a wealthy guy but a really great guy who deserves his success others should take note!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

Fair play to him

 

I wouldn't mind being a pound note behind him.

 

 

If you have the money, why not. I own a Buddy Holly bike. not the original, but one of only 188 ever made.  it's my rarity, and couldn't afford to buy one nowadays

What a lovely collection
