HERE’S Eric Cantona with his electric Ford Capri.
It can only be his. It’s got his signature on the front wings, “7” on the doors (his Man United shirt number) and a 3D crown printed on the rear pillars.
For King Eric, obviously.
There’s even a silhouette of his infamous kung-fu kick stitched on to the front headrests.
I’m not even joking.
Cantona was promised a car after fronting Ford’s big unveil last summer.
He told me: “I like this car.
“It’s a bit like me.
“I was a footballer, then I became an actor and a singer.
“But inside I’m the same person.
“I just express myself with football, express myself with acting, with music or with lyrics or whatever.
“But it’s the same soul.
“It’s me. Like the Capri.”
Cantona doesn’t have a car collection, like almost every other Prem star.
He prefers art.
He said: “We have different passions.
“Me, I collect art. Sculptures. Paintings. Different things.
“I have two of Anish Kapoor – the one who did the big sculpture in front of the Olympic Stadium (the Orbit).
“He’s in every museum in the world.
“The first money I earned, I invested in art.
“So I have a nice collection.”
Cantona did once own a Rolls-Royce Corniche, which was daubed in graffiti by street artist JonOne to raise money for a French homeless charity.
He said: “I had it for 15 years when I was in England – the car was in France, and I drove it maybe 500km. Nothing.
“So I sold it at auction for the Fondation Abbé Pierre.
“I think it made 120,000 euros.
“You can see it if you go to Paris.
“It was bought by the president of the Accor group and it’s now in the reception of the Hotel Molitor, which is a very famous place. So nice.”
Maybe his Capri will end up there one day too.
