Tom Hardy's car collection

Hardy arrived at the London premiere of The Dark Knight Rises in this matte black, custom-finished R8 Spyder, and was photographed leaving the Dorchester Hotel in it the following morning. The first-generation Type 42 R8 Spyder is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10 producing 525 horsepower, shared with the Lamborghini Gallardo, giving it a 0-to-60 mph time of around 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 196 mph. With only two seats, a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and Quattro all-wheel drive, it is the most track-focused piece in Hardy's collection.

Hardy was filmed by Autoevolution test-driving this red RS5 with the roof down in rainy conditions in 2013, after which he reportedly purchased the car. Under the bonnet sits a 4.2-litre naturally aspirated V8 producing 450 horsepower, channelled through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission to all four wheels via Quattro. The RS5 Cabriolet was produced in limited numbers compared to the coupe, making it a rarer find, and its open-top body style aligns with Hardy's well-documented preference for drop-top Audis.
