Carlo Ancelotti took delivery of his new official car at FC Bayern’s Säbener Strasse headquarters on Tuesday. The new head coach at Germany’s most successful club drove off in a mythos black metallic Audi S8 plus. AUDI AG head of sports marketing Thomas Glas presented the Italian with the keys to his new vehicle. Ancelotti and the marque with the four rings are no strangers as Audi is also a partner of his former club Real Madrid. The premium automobile manufacturer and FC Bayern began their collaboration back in 2002.
