Buying expensive cars has long ceased to be a sensation and is far from always voiced in the press. However, if the owner of elite foreign cars is the son of one of the wealthiest owners of the oil empire and also changes cars like gloves, the media do not leave such news unattended. By the way, Yusuf Alekperov himself also happily presents his cars on social networks. About him and his extremely expensive sports cars are narrated in this publication.
Brief information about Yusuf Alekperov
Yusuf is the only son of one of the co-owners of the Lukoil private oil empire, Vagit Alekperov, who was born in 1990. A portrait of a guy posing in a black and white tuxedo with a bright red scarf in his buttonhole most accurately characterizes him as a person.
No less interesting is the inscription with mafia overtones: The Don. And although in this picture the colorful representative of the golden youth looks a little older than his years, it fully recognizes the face of Yusuf Alekperov (a photo of the young heir can be seen below), and some features of his absurd character are even guessed.
Study and place of work of Yusuf
After receiving secondary education, Yusuf, at the insistence of his father, entered the Russian State University of Oil and Gas named after I. M. Gubkina (the popular "forge of oil personnel"). In 2012, he managed to graduate from a university and receive a diploma in the specialty "development and operation of oil fields."
At the end of the university, Yusuf Alekperov, whose photo often appears on the pages of Forbes magazine, was sent to receive invaluable work experience at OGPD Povkhneft. It was there that the son of the oil magnate began climbing the career ladder. At the moment, the wealthy offspring has already received an increase and has come a short way from the operator to the technologist.
Reasons for Yusuf's “exile” to Siberia
According to Vagit Alekperov himself, he wanted his son not only to inherit millions, but to learn how to earn them on his own. For this, according to the father’s plan, he must go all the way from the bottom and go up.
That was the road to fame among the oil king himself. True, then Vagit Yusufovich already had some experience in the oil business. But his offspring has no such baggage of knowledge yet. Will he be able to repeat the fate of his father or will he choose his path, while it is too early to speak. The main thing is that the future son of Yusuf Alekperov will become the heir to a huge fortune, but already earned by dad, not grandfather.
Weaknesses of “rich Richie”
Since the twenty-six-year-old Yusuf does not even think about the official family status, he is occupied with completely different interests. For example, he likes to play tennis and football, travel and relax with friends on a yacht. He is delighted with expensive and purebred cats. And recently, he also had a new lover.
By the way, the young man, in his own words, does not suffer from delusions of grandeur, although he prefers to choose notable, status things. For example, in his amateur football team, Yusuf Alekperov (the cars he owns are also limited edition and have exclusive features) proudly wears a red T-shirt and plays under the honorary first number.
And, of course, Alekperov’s passion for very expensive sports cars deserves special attention.
Toys of Yusuf Alekperov: fleet
According to the assurances of oil tycoon Vagit Yusufovich, his son is very modest and does not like to be shown in public. However, Instagram users are willing to argue with him, since a wealthy offspring quite immodestly uploads photos of more and more cars to the network.
So, based on the photos that Yusuf Alekperov made public, the cars from his collection are expensive and high-speed sports cars. For example, in his fleet there is a black Mercedes-Benz G-Class Brabus jeep, popularly known as the “Cube” or “Gelendvagen”.
Recall that this series of SUVs has been produced since the beginning of 1979, and in 1982 took part in the Paris-Dakar rally. According to certain data, the cost of this model in its basic configuration is about 14 million rubles.
It was repeatedly updated by the developers, but practically did not lose its external aggressive data. It is worth seeing such a car in the rearview mirror, as soon as you want to skip it forward and not tempt fate. However, the owner of a foreign car also often believes that other drivers are simply obliged to give way to him. What else Yusuf Alekperov bought the car, we will tell further.
Porsche 911 Turbo S in Alekperov's collection
Another luxury car in the Yusuf collection is the Porsche 911 Turbo S, first introduced to the Moscow beau monde at the end of May 2013. This unique sports car with a 1000-horsepower engine can cover a distance of 100 km in just 3.1 seconds. According to a source close to Alekperov Jr., Yusuf fell in love with this car at first sight.
He liked his unusual streamlined forms, design, technical specifications and the ability to develop great speed. It’s hard to say whether a young man uses such a car at full power. At least for speeding, riding on this model, the son of an oil tycoon was not involved. By the way, the cost of this “car” by Yusuf Alekperov is 13, 000, 000-15, 000, 000 rubles.
