In 2008, Daniel Radcliffe could’ve been among the world’s wealthiest celebrities who drive the cheapest cars. In the actor’s case, that’s due to his humble Fiat Punto.
Radcliffe celebrated his 18th birthday by purchasing a car that didn’t seem out of the ordinary for a typical teenager. The difference, of course, was that Radcliffe was already a multimillionaire, thanks to his starring role in the Harry Potter movie franchise.
Radcliffe was interested in the Punto for its environmental friendliness. He also wanted to take advantage of its low-profile nature to drive around London without drawing attention from fans, the Evening Standard reported.
These days, Cars Guide lists a 2008 Fiat Punto at only $2,400 — hardly the car we associate with celebrities of Radcliffe’s stature.

Daniel Radcliffe’s net worth hovers around $110 million. The actor’s fortune has allowed him to expand his car collection, which now includes at least one supercar.
The model in question is a Lamborghini Huracán, which Car and Driver reports starts at around $213,000. Harnessing over 600 hp with its 5.2-liter V10 engine, this beast packs some serious power. It’s also one of the most reliable supercars.
21 Motoring says Radcliffe enjoys tooling around in his Lamborghini on the weekends. So if you’re out on a Saturday in England and spot a Huracán, get a peek at the driver. You might see a familiar face.
