5. Mercedes SLS, £200k

Developed by the Mercedes-AMG division, this German stunner has a retractable rear wing which extends at a speed of 70 mph and it is not the regular car you would see on the busy streets of Barcelona.

'SLS' stands for 'Super Leicht Sport' which translates to 'Super Light Sport'. Given Messi's nicknamed the flea, that sounds about right that he should have one of these.

Meanwhile, NAIJ.com had earlier reported that the Argentine captain lost a penalty in his country World cup opener with Iceland.

Alfred Finnbogason canceled out Sergio Aguero's strike that earned them their first ever point at the World Cup.
