Gordon Ramsay’s second favourite hobby, after swearing, seems to be collecting cars.
We tried to learn as much as we could about Ramsay’s car history and his current collection and the findings are truly mind-boggling. Below are 26 cars that the world’s most famous chef has had the pleasure of owning and if you know roughly how much some of these cars cost (some of them over £1 million) then you’ll soon appreciate the magnitude of this list.
That being said, one thing this list does lack is variation as it seems that Gordon’s actual favourite F word isn’t a swear after all. It’s Ferrari. 13 of the 26 cars we could find that the Devil’s chef has once owned were Ferraris. He knows exactly what he likes.
Among the massive pile of Ferraris, Gordon has also owned a Ford GT, which are highly exclusive cars (although he may have bought it used rather than from Ford directly), a huge James Bond edition Land Rover, an open-top KTM X-Bow and one of his first cars, a VW Golf VR6.
Here are all the cars Ramsay has owned could find:
His recent UK collection (November 2019)
- LaFerrari Aperta
- DBS Superleggera
- Porsche 918 Spyder
- Yellow F355
- McLaren Senna
- McLaren 675LT
- Ferrari F12 TDF
- Ferrari 812 Superfast
- Ferrari 355 GTS
- Ferrari 488 GTB
- BAC Mono
In a video on his own YouTube channel, Gordon treats his family and friends to a day at the circuit with all of his UK cars. Taking each one out for a spin, he notes how this is the first time he’s seen all of his UK collection together on the track. That being said, it probably excludes the cars in his UK collection that aren’t really track day cars and instead, more luxurious and practical.
Other cars that are either over in the US or he has since sold include:
Ferrari 430 Scuderia
SP2 Monza
One his most recent and most expensive cars.
KTM X-Bow
LaFerrari
In a dark gunmetal grey similar to this one.
Ferrari 458 Italia
Ferrari 550 Maranello
Gifted to him by his wife in 2000 after winning his first three-star Michelin award.
Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
Ferrari California T
Bentley Continental GT
A car he described as “combining everything I want from speed, agility and comfort to making a nice noise”
Aston Martin DB7
Porsche 911 Turbo
A car he was caught doing 132mph in, according to The Telegraph. Unsure which year model he owned but it was during the early 2000s. In a 2005 interview with them, he described it as “the dream, but reality was an old Fiat Strada that was f****** ghastly”
VW Golf VR6
One of his first ever cars to own.
Ferrari Portofino
Land Rover Defender Spectre Edition
Ford GT
His one is dark grey with a blue stripe, not like this one!
Along with his four-wheel rides, Gordon has also owned a fair amount of two-wheel toys as well. Here are some of them:
Yamaha FZR 1000 Genesis
Ducati 748
Honda Fireblade
Yamaha R1
Ducati 1098S
So what’s the moral of the story? If you like cars, become a TV chef and start swearing at people.

I am amazed to see the car-collections of Gordon Ramsay. He is truly an interesting character and wouldn’t be surprised if he becomes an F1 driver.
