Off the field, football players often have the habit of collecting luxury cars in their garage.

Most of them are models that are difficult for ordinary people to reach.

But Neymar 's latest purchase isn't even street legal.

The Brazilian player has repeatedly expressed his passion for the character Batman.

He has a tattoo of the superhero symbol created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, and once dressed up as Batman in the dressing room.

In addition, the "Brazilian Football Prince" also attended many movie premieres about Batman - the "money-making" character of DC Comics.

Now, Neymar has treated himself to a replica of the Batmovil Tumbler – the impressive car that Christian Bale's Batman character drives.

Batmovil Tumbler is associated with one of the most classic Batman versions in cinema history, starring Bale and directed by Christopher Nolan - including 3 parts Batman Begins , The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises .

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (Italy) , this special car costs up to 1.3 million euros (approximately 40 billion VND).

The problem is that according to Brazilian regulations, Neymar is not allowed to drive the Batmovil Tumbler version on the street because the car is not licensed for circulation.

After months of display, the car was moved from the Dream Car Museum in Sao Roque – about 60km from Sao Paulo – to Neymar's home.

Santos players may only drive on private property or closed tracks.

The Batmovil Tumbler version that Neymar owns was produced by car designer Adhemar Cabral (Brazil).

This is more of a collector's item than a real street vehicle.

It took a team of 50 people three years of hard work to accurately recreate the Batmovil Tumbler.

The car that Neymar owns is 4.65 meters long and 2.8 meters wide. The frame is made of steel tubing, the body is made of carbon fiber and kevlar (para-aramid synthetic fiber).

Under the hood is a 6.2-liter V8 engine with 525 horsepower.

As part of its equipment, the Batmovil Tumbler comes with a flamethrower, a simulated jet engine, fake weapons, a smoke bomb launcher, and adjustable flaps.

With the Batmovil Tumbler just for fun, Neymar seems to want to remind Lamine Yamal - who is currently involved in a scandal over his 18th birthday - that he is still far from being able to match his idol in terms of "playfulness" and strange hobbies.
