MICHAEL VAN GERWEN will be hoping to go one better at the Paddy Power World Darts Championships this year and secure a FOURTH world title.
Last time out, MVG lost to Michael Smith in an epic final.
An epic nine-darter from Bully Boy provided one of the most exciting legs we’ve ever seen at Alexandra Palace– with Van Gerwen missing out on a double 12 before Smith could clean up.
Still, Van gerwen has amassed an incredible wealth during his time at the oche.
It is believed the Dutchman has a net worth of £5.3million.
And he has splashed some of his cash on flashy motors, including a Rolls-Royce Ghost worth £250,000.
SunSport takes a look through Van gerwen’s stunning garage.
Vauxhall Astra, £25,000
Michael’s first car, before he really made his millions was a Vauxhall Astra.
Not the flashiest, it got MVG from A to B.
It’s not known what year he had the car from and till.
Current specs, though, haven’t changed too much. It would have done a top speed of around 130 mph.
Audi S4, £50,000
When the money started rolling in for MVG, he got himself a fancy motor.
The then family man went for a sturdy Audi S4, which with add-ons included could surpass £50,000
Quite zippy, it’s able to reach 0-62 mph in around 4.7 seconds.
It boasts a a 2.7-litre twin turbocharged V6 engine.

Lorry, TBC
Van Gerwen has revealed he plans to buy a LORRY if he should win a spectacular fourth world title at Ally Pally this year.
Although the truck has not yet been decided upon and depends on success in London, Van Gerwen said: “I’m going to treat myself to a lorry [if I win].
“It’s not just about treating yourself, it’s about how to perform well and giving yourself the ability to win that trophy and everything that comes with it.
“I don’t fancy a Ferrari, they are too small for me. I have been sitting in a Lamborghini before and I don’t like it. Not for me.
“But first you have to win, I don’t deserve it at the moment.”
