Emma Raducanu receives brilliant response as she returns to second-hand car after Porsche setback

The Briton had her £125,000 supercar taken back to leave her with her old motor

Emma Raducanu has been reported to be driving around in her old second-hand Dacia Sandero – and the company have came in with a brilliant offer.

 

The British No. 2 saw her £125,000 Porsche taken back by the German car manufacturers earlier this week.

 

And it has seen Raducanu blow the dust off her old Sandero, which she fell in love with after buying it second-hand four years ago.

The £5,000 motor has never let her down – but Dacia have now got in touch to offer her a more up-to-date model.

Dacia wrote in a post on X: “Dear @EmmaRaducanu.

 

“Whether it’s your forehand, backhand, or Sandero keys in-hand — you know a thing or two about reliability.

“Here’s to many more miles.”

 

Just days after having her Porsche taken off her by the company, it was reported that Raducanu was seen whipping around in her more modest vehicle.

 

It was part of an agreement that saw her named a global brand ambassador for Porsche following her US Open victory a year before.

But her love for her Dacia never subsided, and she said in the same year: “My dad is Romanian and a Dacia was his first car. So, yeah, I have a white Dacia Sandero.

 

“It was funny, I passed my test three days before the first lockdown and we sort of knew it was going into lockdown, so we needed to buy a car ASAP.
