Real Madrid's players were handed an early Christmas present by sponsors Audi as every member of the first team squad drove away with a new set of wheels.
The German car manufacturer put smiles on the faces of Zinedine Zidane and his players as the Spanish giants all got to choose which model they wanted to receive and in what colour.
Club captain Sergio Ramos opted for the most expensive drive, selecting the £86,000 Lunar Blue Audi A8 50 TDI Quattro Tiptronic.
Players were presented with their selected cars and signed number plates on Monday as part of their annual ceremony at this time of year.
Zidane showed his humility and opted for a RS 3 Sportback TFSI quattro S tronic in Mythos black, the cheapest model available from the squad list coming in at £65,000.
Karim Benzema and Thibaut Courtois also joined their boss in opting for the cheapest model, albeit with different preferences on colour.
Real Madrid will hope the new set of wheels can guide the club into the right direction as they look for a strong finish to the season as they compete for the La Liga title and Champions League.
Zidane's side will take on Pep Guardiola's Manchester City in the Champions League last-16, while they travel to face title rivals Barcelona in El Clasico this week having seen the initial fixture postponed.
