Teen queen Miley Cyrus has inherited a "hand me down" Porsche from her mother following her 16th birthday.

The Hannah Montana star was given the luxury sports car after turning 16 last month, but wanted a brand new vehicle.

She told US TV show Extra: "I do have a car. I took my mum's old car. I didn't get the one I wanted, but I got the old car which wasn't so bad because it was a Porsche. I suppose it was a pretty good hand me down."

Miley - who is taking her Bolt co-star John Travolta to the Golden Globes, where she is nominated for two prizes, as her "date" - recently revealed she was attacked by a fruit-wielding assailant while learning to drive.

She said: "I already had a big Student Driver sign over my head, and someone threw a banana at me!"

Miley has also admitted she is nervous around her driving instructor.

She added: "My test person scares me. He says, 'Alright Miley, if you make a left turn, what's going to happen?' And I am like, 'I don't really know.' And he goes, 'Thump! That's what going to happen to your brand-new car.'

"He just starts hitting things, and it really scared me."
