On his official social media accounts, the former Indian cricket team captain frequently shares his passion for motorcycles. Few people are aware that he shares the same passion for cars, too. &nbsp;Dhoni was recently seen driving a 1959-introduced Mini Cooper near Ranchi, Jharkhand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A video of him driving the famous car has become popular online.\u00a0 The video was uploaded by a YouTuber\u00a0 Suraj Khatri Vlogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the viral video, MS Dhoni was seen coming in his retro red Mini Cooper, which at the time caused a stir in the market with its futuristic features, styling, and road presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"@MS Dhoni   In Ranchi\" width=\"740\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/haWR4k8SAKI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Captain Cool was seen driving a car while wearing a face mask, with the window rolled down, and waving at his followers, in the video. However, if one takes a closer look at the vehicle, one will see Dhoni has done an excellent job of maintaining the vintage masterpiece by Mini, which is difficult to identify these days on roadways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dhoni is a huge fan of classic cars. Dhoni gave his wife Sakshi Dhoni a classic Volkswagen Beetle in 2021 for their 11th wedding anniversary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sakshi posted a picture of a vintage blue and grey car on Instagram and captioned the post, thank you for the anniversary gift!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mini Cooper&#8217;s historical model was then introduced with a variety of engines, including the 998cc, 1275cc, and 848cc. The lightweight vehicle was known for its rapid acceleration and agility. All car lovers in the 1990s found it to be quite popular because it was a front-wheel drive model with a small wheelbase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The car was designed for buyers who travelled frequently in both urban and rural areas. Although it had a creative design and a future outlook, the car was very comfortable for the driver and the passenger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, last month, Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) won their record-equaling fifth IPL 2023 championship victory. Earlier this month in Mumbai, Dhoni underwent knee surgery following the Indian Premier League (IPL) season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dhoni is a huge fan of classic cars.
