1965 MGB RoadsterRed Bull boss Christian Horner is a dedicated family man and we see proof of that in the Netflix series, Driver to Survive. His marriage with his wife Geri Halliwell is nothing less than a fairytale. If we had to pinpoint an incident to justify the claim, a few years back, Horner’s effort and patience for Geri’s birthday gift melted a few hearts around the world.
As a birthday present, Christian Horner reportedly bought back Geri Halliwell her first-ever car. Telling the entire story, Christian said: “She later sold it, so I tracked it down and bought it back for her. Must be the most expensive MGB out there.”

Geri later shared a snap of herself with the car, stating, “I’ve been reunited with my old friend – MGB Roadster. I originally bought her with first Spice Girl pay check.”
The Ginger Spice told Cosmopolitan, “When we first saw our advance check before the album dropped, we jumped around like mad. My first wow-we-did-it purchase: a 1965 MGB Roadster for £15,000 ($16,000).”
The Red Bull boss also gifted his wife a set of four wheels when they tied the knot in 2015. As a wedding present, Christian gifted Geri with a $373,000 DB5 retro-style Aston Martin.
