The head of the Chechen Republic is still that automan. During the years of service in his hands were the most expensive and rare cars in the world. However, not so long ago, all of them were sold, and part of the proceeds from the sale was spent on charity. Kadyrov left behind only one car, and this is not latest supercar, and the domestic VAZ-2105. In general, we have a good reason to remember and study Ramzan's glorious automotive past.

Bugatti Veyron

Let's start with a simple one - the fastest production car on the planet, capable of reaching over 400 km / h, was also in Kadyrov's collection. And not in a single copy! A 1,000-horsepower Bugatti supercar worth $1.5 million was given to Ramzan by one of his former civil service colleagues. The version for the president of Chechnya featured an exclusive carbon body kit, which reduced the mass of the car and allowed him to feel more confident at exorbitant speeds. It should be noted that the standard Veyron, which was also in the Kadyrov collection in addition to the tuning one, accelerated to 100 km / h in a measly 2.5 seconds. This is the merit of a huge 16-cylinder engine with a volume of 8 liters already with 4 turbochargers.

Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss

In addition to the standard Mercedes-Benz SLR with a 5.5-liter V8 with 625 horsepower under the hood in the garage, Ramzan once had an exclusive version of this supercar. Named after the legendary English racer, the car does not share a single body part with a conventional SLR. The car was considerably lightened, depriving even the windshield, and an extra 25 Horse power. In this form, the Stirling Moss version can shoot up to a hundred in 3.5 seconds and gain a top speed of 350 km/h. It is curious that only 75 such roadsters were produced at a price of about 750 thousand euros, and one of them ended up in the garage of Ramzan Kadyrov, who often gave it a ride to rapper Timati.

Lamborghini Reventon

An even rarer supercar, produced in only 20 pieces, 19 of which were sold to private hands for about $ 1.5 million. In motion this swift two-door car with a motor in the center and all-wheel drive driven by a huge V12 from the Murcielago model. The 6.5-liter unit produces 650 horsepower, which is enough to reach 340 km / h in a straight line and accelerate in 3.4 seconds to hundreds. It is curious that the pedigree of this motor has a whole 40 years of history since it was developed by Giotto Bizzarini for the 1964 350GT model. Since then, the engine has been modernized many times, but its design, in general, has remained rather conservative.

Aston Martin One-77

It seems that if somewhere someone produces an ultra-limited series of expensive cars, then it will be in the hands of Ramzan Kadyrov. As the name implies, the most exclusive sports car of the English brand was sold around the world with a circulation of only 77 copies. A 7.3-liter, 760 horsepower 12-cylinder engine wrapped in a stunningly fast body was valued at $1.5 million. For the money, you get 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and a top speed of around 354 km/h. At the same time, Aston Martin could boast of the classic layout of the technical stuffing - the engine is in the front, the wheel drive is in the rear, which should have added spice to driving this monster.

Mercedes G63 AMG Sahara Edition Mansory

Ramzan Kadyrov is a great connoisseur of the products of the famous German tuning studio. The President of Chechnya was even going to open a Mansory car dealership in Grozny, in connection with which a bright orange appeared in his garage Mercedes-Benz AMG GT. But this is not about him now, although he deserves a separate post with his 730 horsepower and a price of 700 thousand dollars. After all, making a rocket from a sports car is not as difficult as from a brutal Gelendvagen. The compressor motor from AMG was fired up to 840 “horses”, and the whole car was literally redrawn for increased power. In addition, a special camouflage coloring of the car and the emblem of the Akhmat sports club on the radiator added speed and pathos.

In this article, we will show you one of the most luxurious car parks, all the cars from which were sold and the proceeds from them were donated to a charitable foundation. Yes, we will talk about the cars of the head of the Chechen Republic - Ramzan Akhmatovich Kadyrov. According to various sources, these cars are not issued to the President of Chechnya himself, although he is their direct owner. Most often, the owners of cars are the closest relatives, friends or the Akhmat sports club.

Bugatti Veyron

In the garage of the head of the Chechen Republic, there was a place for two luxurious hypercars, maximum speed exceeding 400 km/h. The first one is presented in the standard version and was purchased by Ramzan Akhmatovich personally. The second car with an exclusive carbon finish on all body panels was donated by Tamerlan Mingaev, Deputy Plenipotentiary Representative of the Chechen Republic under the President of the Russian Federation. It is noted that the cost of this copy is 1.5 million euros.

Lamborghini Reventon

Another no less exclusive supercar from the Italian brand, Lamborghini Reventon, is also listed in Kadyrov's collection. In total, 20 cars were produced for sale, another one is on display at the Lamborghini Museum. "Under the hood" of the car "hidden" 650 hp, which can accelerate it to 350 km / h. It is noteworthy that at the time of release the car was estimated at 1.5 million dollars, and now the cost of a collector's item reaches 2.5 million.

Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

Introduced in the early 2000s, the sports coupe embodies the succession to the classic "gull wing" from German concern, equipped with a 5.5-liter turbocharged engine with 650 hp. Kadyrov's collection contains an American version of the model, which ended up in the head's garage immediately after it was released to the market. Moreover, Ramzan Akhmatovich is the owner of one of 75 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss, released in honor of the British racing driver Stirling Moss. According to unconfirmed information, the car was donated to the famous rapper Timati.

Aston Martin One-77

Some local media reports that Kadyrov was seen driving a unique Aston Martin One-77. A total of 77 copies were released. All of them were sold out a year before the premiere. Under the hood is a 12-cylinder V-shaped naturally aspirated engine volume of 7.3 liters, 760 hp.

Ferrari F430

A special gift from Moscow Chechens was presented to the head of Chechnya on his 30th birthday. Senator Umar Dzhabrailov and businessman Ruslan Baysarov handed Kadyrov the keys to a completely black Ferrari worth $450,000. Like most of the cars of the head, the sports car received the numbers of the special series "KRA".

Mansory

Ramzan Akhmatovich has a special love for this tuning studio. Rumor has it that several years ago the Chechen leader invited Kurosh Mansory, the owner of the Mansory tuning studio, to Grozny. Negotiations were held on the opening of a representative office on the territory of the Chechen Republic. Kadyrov's collection includes a $700,000 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Mansory and a Mercedes G63 AMG Sahara Edition Mansory. We also note that the head of Chechnya also owns a 6-wheeled monster from Mansory - a Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG 6x6 with 840 thoroughbred horses under the hood.

GAZ-3102

Earlier, Kadyrov was presented with an exclusive Volga 3102. automatic transmission, rear axle from Volvo, the interior is completely altered in white leather, and the stamped wheels are replaced with chrome-plated cast ones.

Other domestic cars

Among the collection of Ramzan there was a place for the Russian automobile industry. So, in addition to the Volga, ZAZ-968 are located in his garage, Lada Priora and VAZ-2105.

It should be noted that Kadyrov uses two Chevrolet Tahoe GMT900s for the rides, from which the bigfoots were created. The motorcade of the head of Chechnya, as a rule, consists of either a Mercedes-Benz AMG or latest models Porsche.

Ramzan Kadyrov, President of the Chechen Republic, is well known for his love of cars, including luxury and rare cars. Today in the car park of the head of the republic you can see a lot interesting models, including rare cars of the Italian and German industry. It's time to take a closer look at Ramzan Akhmatovich's collection.

1. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

Ramzan Kadyrov is a big fan German cars. There are a lot of them in his garage. The first thing to mention here is, of course, the luxurious McLaren supercar, created by the British division of the company. Today, such a car is no longer available. last car came off the assembly line in 2009.

2. Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG

A new generation of German sports cars began life in 2012. One of these cars is already in the garage of the head of the Chechen Republic. Main Feature SL63 AMG is that, unlike its predecessors, many parts of the car are completely made of aluminum.

3. Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

Automobile executive class. The current model has been in production since 2013. The collection of Ramzan Akhmatovich has at least one such car. The car looks harsh and luxurious at the same time.

4 Ferrari F430

One of the many sports cars in Ramzan Kadyrov's collection. A car that is loved not only for dynamic characteristics, but also for its unsurpassed appearance. Today, the car is considered a rarity. The fact is that the Ferrari F430 is no longer for sale. The company sold the last car on April 17, 2009.

5 Audi R8

The collection of the politician did not do without the popular sports car. Most likely, the machine has a complete set additional options. However, most people can only guess and speculate about this.

6. Hummer H2

Ramzan Kadyrov owns one such limousine based on the Hummer H2. As befits a car of this class, the limousine is painted white. Accompanied (usually) by a couple of "Geliki" of the same white color. By the way, in other cases, Kadyrov's retinue and guards move in black cars.

7 Lamborghini Reventon

by the most unusual car in the collection of the Russian politician was and remains this roadster. It costs more than 1 million euros on the market. For all the time, only 20 such machines were produced. The roadster is equipped with a 6.5-liter unit with a return of 640 horsepower. The V12 engine accelerates the car to 100 km / h in 3.4 seconds without any problems. Speed ​​ceiling - 356 km / h.

The Chechen leader made his statement during a meeting with the prime minister of the republic, Abubakar Edelgeriev. Kadyrov did not deny the excessive motorization of his officials, but simply explained its reasons.

“The dissatisfaction of the federal department () is that we have a large fleet of vehicles,” said the head of Chechnya. - In fact, the presence of such a number of cars is due to the fact that for many years we have not written off old equipment, we continue to use it to this day. Therefore, I consider these claims unfounded. Perhaps the minister was misinformed about this.”

By "the dissatisfaction of the federal center" Kadyrov meant the statement of the head of the Ministry of Finance at a recent meeting of the government commission for the development of the North Caucasus Federal District. Then he spoke about the need for budget savings in the region, including at the expense of officials - there are too many of them in the Caucasus, and the efficiency of work is low. At the same time, along with the growth in the number of officials, their service fleet is also growing rapidly. “Our champion, of course, is the Chechen Republic,” the minister said. —

With an average number in the Russian Federation cars on the balance sheet of government agencies - or which are leased by government agencies - 0.06, in the Chechen Republic - 0.27.

In the Chechen Republic, about half of all official cars from the SCFD. So there is room for optimization."

Whether any concrete steps will be taken in this direction is still unknown. The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation did not have time to prepare an answer to the corresponding request from Gazeta.Ru at the time of submission of the material.

Meanwhile, a Gazeta.Ru source in the administrative department of the President of the Russian Federation said that the department has clear standards for the timing of the shift official cars. “This is either three to five years of operation, or 400 thousand kilometers. After that, the car is sold and a new one is bought,” he explained. - It's not some general rule for all regions, such issues in each region are solved individually, because everywhere there are different climatic conditions, different roads". According to the source, the brand of the car is also determined by the region-buyer and depends on the position of a manager.

It is not known for certain how many official cars are in Chechnya and how many "old equipment" are among them - officials never voluntarily disclose such information.

However, according to the numerous photographs of the cars in which Ramzan Kadyrov and his entourage move, it can be concluded that they are still far from the status of "auto junk".

The fleet of the Chechen leader and his entourage has long become a legend - you can easily find videos on the Internet in which motorists in Chechnya, timidly clinging to the side of the road, let a representative cortege flying towards them, numbering about a hundred cars. Kadyrov himself has a Mercedes-Benz S 600 Pullman Guard in his garage. It is on such a car that Russian President Vladimir Putin moves. Even Kadyrov's numerous bodyguards, as a rule, travel only in luxury SUVs. Porsche Cayenne or Mercedes Gelandewagen.

True, not all the cars that the Chechen leader was seen driving were bought for budget funds. Some of them he received as a gift. In particular, on Kadyrov's 30th birthday, he was presented with a brand new one.

However, luxury foreign cars are loved not only by the head of Chechnya, but also by his subordinates. So, last year, a tender for the purchase of a luxury sedan Mercedes-Benz S500 for 5.5 million rubles for the manager of the head and government of Chechnya. At about the same time, Mokhmad Akhmadov, the head of Chechnya, also decided to purchase a Mercedes-Benz GL 500 4Matic of the "special series". The cost of the car is 4 million rubles.

In the press service to the topic excess official cars and their cost reacted painfully. “There are machines that have exhausted their resources and need to be written off,” the press secretary of the head of the republic said dryly. He did not want to answer the question why officials in Chechnya prefer to buy exclusively expensive foreign cars. “You speak so tongue-tied… Sorry, I don’t have time. Thank you,” Karimov said, cutting off the conversation.

Project coordinator o001oo.ru (collects information about cars with special license plates and flashing lights and their owners. - Gazeta.Ru) Dmitry Galinovich believes that the excess of luxury foreign cars in Chechnya is explained by the mentality of the region.

“For a long time in Chechnya, the most important thing was not how a person lives, but what kind of horse he has. Then it moved to cars. You can live in a dugout, but if you drive a Mercedes, then everyone respects you.

It’s just a psychological feature of this ethnic group,” Galinovich explains. - Kadyrov doesn't have many opportunities to stand out among the heads of other regions, and one of them is cars. It is not in vain that he drives an armored car, like , and the number of armored vehicles in Kadyrov's motorcade is many times greater than the number of armored vehicles, for example, the head of neighboring Ingushetia, who was assassinated not so long ago.

According to Galinovich, if there are a lot of photos with luxury foreign cars of Chechen officials on the Internet, this does not mean that everyone in the republic drives such “iron horses”. “They are simply photographed, it attracts attention,” the expert says. - And who will shoot officials of lower rank, who, perhaps, are many times more and who can drive Volga and Priors? Here I would even mention Kadyrov, who, given the poor development of the transport infrastructure, was able to provide his people with cars.”

Galinovich is also sure that buying new cars without selling old ones is far from the worst option in Russian conditions.

“Kadyrov is doing what they did in the days of the USSR and now they are doing it in law enforcement agencies - old cars are not sold cheaply, but handed over to subordinates.

Somewhere in Moscow, a general left by car, then they give it to the region and continue to use it there. Thus, the car really develops its resource, - the expert notes. - And in most regions, cars are changed almost every three years, despite the fact that they are almost new. Cars are written off and sold at a residual value, that is, many times cheaper than on the market, to the same drivers or close associates. We in St. Petersburg recently changed the Audi A8 after only a few years of operation. Well, are these machines designed only for such a period? This is the practice that needs to be fought.”
